does anyone know if its possible to upgrade the se halogen headlights to something like the sel xenon headlights.

It is possible to put the Xenon’s in, but you’ll need to buy the lights, headlight range controller, wiring adapters, wiring for the headlight range controller, 2x level sensors plus wiring and the washer system plus wiring and tubing and a good amount of coding so in a word you are better off going for some brighter, whiter, but still road legal bulbs for the light units you have.

the last part of your paragraph sasha sounds good to me, i have seen a superb se in RRG skoda rochdale they want £14750 22k mileage ita an estate diesel auto just what i am looking for, except i would rather have had a SE L spec, but beggars can't be chooses.

That kind of budget there are plenty of SE-L and even the odd L&K to pick from, it’s a lot of money to spend and the lights are a real step up IMO, a facelift SE with LED (non matrix) isn’t much more at the moment and the LED’s are better still.

 i have been looking for months there are loads of saloons in colours i dont like with manual gearboxes, i am after a silver auto estate 150ps with below 25k on the clock, what are within an hour drive from liverpool, its not easy, that se i was looking at in rochdale skoda had someone put a deposit on it the day after i spoke to the salesman, and the SE-L one in leicester had that gearbox problem, so i will just be patient and keep looking, if you spot something sash let me know....michael.

There’s a 1.5 150 DSG SE-L estate in Business Grey for £18690 in Vindis Bury St Edmonds and Trans City Skoda in London have several SE’s and SE Tech’s in for under £18k, some 1.6 DSG and a petrol blue 2.0 150 manual. Not near Liverpool but click and collect plus delivery will be available. I went from Bangor to Reading to get mine. If you do get one and you want some extra mods adding or a camera fitting I’m not far away from you and can add those things

sorry for getting back late sash, i  want a 2.0 diesel 150ps i think there the best engine for mpg and pulling power, and as for click and collect thats basically what i did with the leicester balls up, i still havent had my 150 pound road tax back off dvla yet, i have to drive a car before i buy it its my retirement pressy to myself so i dont want to buy a lemon  there is a cracker that ticks all the boxes in cornwall its the only private sale on autotrader for 17.500k have a look, but its a monumental journey tho, oh i will defo come to banger to get some mods like front and back nextbase camera, all servicing i can do myself but electronics are to fiddly for me to tackle....michael.
