phil_lihp Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Edit: Sorry, now sold. Right then, time for this to move on seeing as I have agreed to buy its replacement already. It's been a brilliant, economical and reliable workhorse, it's the 1.9 TDi 110, allegedly veg-friendly if that's your thing and it's done just over 202,000 miles. Serviced in November last year with new fuel filter, recent rear caliper, brake fluid and front pads. It's fairly clean and tidy, comes with a very good Kenwood stereo and Parrot bluetooth handsfree kit and drives very well. It's got a big stack of service history and there's a thread on its travels through the forum here: http://autoshite.com/topic/18301-skoda-octavia-tdi-for-sale-%C3%82%C2%A3550/?hl=octavia The suspension is baggy and might need some work for its MOT in October, the front is a bit saggy and there is a clonking from the rear O/S strut. The paintwork is scruffy and tired although it does polish up OK from a distance. Proper Skoda floormats if that floats your boat, four good Dunlop Blueresponse tyres and a tow hitch with working electrics. The remote central locking doesn't work any more and neither does the air con (it was regassed last year but the compressor is knackered). The N/S TRE is worn but a new one is included which I never found time to fit. I'm in Barnstaple, North Devon and right by the train station so very convenient for collection. It's £6 a ticket or two for £10, it'll be held on the next Lotto draw once all payments are in and will be based off the bonus ball as always.

rantingYoof Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Got a non-fault claim pending an outcome which will affect insurance almost certainly (despite protected NCB). Cheapest train ticket is £55 and takes six hours. Quicker journeys are £95. Potential for MOT expense. I'll take a ticket please. spartacus and barefoot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil_lihp Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 Sorry chaps, a nice man just came and bought it as a temporary runabout while his car is being repaired. No test drive, barely looked at it, started it for a few seconds and made me a sensible offer. Can't argue with that! groovylee, rantingYoof and RobT 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil_lihp Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 You are right, I am a muppet. Cheers, given the ridiculous hassle I had with the chap who bought the Puma off me, this was refreshingly quick and painless. John F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
