2003 Mk1 Octavia vRS Estate, 96k **NOW SOLD**

[chalky74]

Hi, I'm selling my Skoda Octavia vRS Mk1 estate. I bought it as a project car as I like the Mk 1 wagon shape and there was opportunity to tidy it up. However, we moved house last year and I gave up a driveway and garage and my enthusiasm has faded and I now want to move it on. Also, living in rural Yorkshire and the "poor" road quality here means I'm heading back to Subaru having previously owned a bullet proof Forester. I'll be keeping the Yeti though so not leaving Briskoda entirely and all the great help and advice it offers.

 

Here's the car details.

Body work:

Paint is cracked and chipped n/s rear bumper. I dinged it, hitting our other car while reversing it onto the drive.

Some other scratches and marks that are relevant with age of the car. Notably, a previous owner thought it was a good idea to move the vRS badge under the Skoda badge on the boot lid. WHY?! 

Also, I've removed the two orange LED lights from the front bumper intakes. Again, a previous owner had these wired up to the side repeaters. WHY?!

These are shown in the photo gallery.

Spares:

A centre handbrake console to replace existing one where the cup holder lever is missing.

1

Original service and instruction manuals, plus radio key fob

 

Asking price is £1550 NOW SOLD.

I'm in Haworth, near Keighley and Skipton, West Yorkshire. If you have further questions and want to arrange a viewing and/or test drive get in touch. Obviously I'll accompany you on the test drive and relevant insurance will be required.
