Featured Replies

Hi I have a 2018 TSI VRS it is challenge spec ie 19" alloys and Alacantra heated seats sat nav manual milage is 43k

full service history all dealer upto 38k and one oil filter change from justaudivw  were I purchased the car from at 40k .

I hardly use the car because I also have a tai vrs which is my wife's , I prefer the TDI as most of our journeys are 40+miles

ive had the car just over a year and only done just over 3k in the car,  photos were taken 3 months ago but car is in same condition only done 150 miles since they were taken.

it is HPI clear and I have 3 keys and book pack etc, I am the 2nd owner , first being a veteran the car was purchased in the UK and exported to Germany in first year then imported back to the UK , some of the service history is in German but all genuine Skoda I have every recipt.  it has next base dash cam fitted and professionally wired in again box and recipt with it ,

it also has wind deflectors fitted and boot liner and genuine Skoda mats and bumper protector . very genuine car , due MOT in march but happy to have it MOT'd for buyer . next service due is a full one and is due at 50k. good tyres all round no scratches or rust anywhere alloys are near mint  

 

swap for TDI similar spec happy with hatchback or estate must be HPI clear with full service history no more than 60k miles unless you want to give me some cash as well .

I’d argue that at 3K a year, the petrol is the better option.

Would absolutely agree.

 

I went the other way going from a 2015 TDI VRS to a 2018 TSI 240BHP VRS and it’s a much better car.

The point being its only done 3k because its petrol I always have to time things with my wife to use her car .

the petrol is just to expensive for me to run it only returns 41mpg on a long run the diesel gives me a lot more .

the short trips are better in the petrol car but I mainly go 160m round trips and im always worried when leaving it parked up

as its much more desirable to thieves. hence I want some thing that does not scream steal me im fast.

the tdi is fast enough for my needs although the TSI is fun to drive and you can overtake an artic lorry on a corner LOL.

I want to use my car more hence I need to swap it , and as its newer than our old trusty estate tdi , if I get another tdi of same age.

it will become our main car over the next year and will drive it until diesel is illegal .

I also refuse to use e10 fuel and the super petrol were I live is just shy of £1.70 a litre
