Hi everyone,

Been a long long time, I'm back in an octy, and a belter at 72k miles and PD 105.

Was a spare car for a mansion house and sat in a garage most of the time.

Serviced every year with MOT, and clutch/fly with timing belt done just last year.

I've remapped it, bringing the torque curve to peak at 2k and she is pushing 260lbs and 155bhp.

EGR off and 4.2k limiter.

Welcome!

Looks like you found yourself a bargain!

Hopefully I can have an Octy as a spare mansion house car someday 😂 (need a mansion first!)

Yes indeed haha,

I paid £1000 for it, but owning/driving now for a few weeks I realise it's flawless.

Will go forever as well. A steal at £1,000.

Congrats mate

I was surprised when I saw it advertised, she had 200+ messages and switched off messenger,

I added her as a Facebook friend and could reply to a historic post - was only way, and she was away to scrap it cos people mucking around

Fantastic engines those 1.9TDi's.

Had my MkI Fabia remapped to 155 as well.

Bagged yourself a proper bargain there.

So you saved it from it's death!

Sounds like it was meant to be.

Hope it serves you well

Yes I suppose so!!

It's had a triple oil change to flush and then the 504.01 and mahl filter for the main change.

I'll change every 7k and just use it.

Remarkably rust free

Even the arches
