Description
Time to let go of my beloved Octavia vRS. I've owned it for 5 years, added around 80k miles, and enjoyed every moment with it. It's been super reliable, and I've always maintained it to a very high standard.
Spec includes: Apple CarPlay, cruise control, lane assist, xenons, heated seats, and more.
I'm really passionate about cars, so I've always looked after this one properly. Always serviced with Quantum 5W30 low-ash oil + MANN filters.
Oil & filter every 6k miles, fuel filter every second service.
The hardwired dashcam stays with the car and goes to the new owner.
I HAVE PAID FOR A FULL PREMIUM HPI REPORT, CONTACT ME TO GET IT FOR FREE.
The CUNA TDI engines don't have the usual EGR problems because the EGR sits after the DPF, so the engine runs very clean even at higher mileage. The charge cooler has been checked by Skoda, no leaks. It has new injectors fitted. The engine runs like
new.
Recent work done:
Last year I had a 1,400 job done at a Skoda partner garage (AWTuning): four new injectors, ARB bushes, new rear shocks, and a full major service.
4x brand new Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres (8-9mm, basically new)
4x Bosch injectors
New rear shock absorbers + Powerflex anti-roll bar bushes

Car condition
Recently serviced - all filters new and ready for another 6k miles / 1 year.
The DSG gearbox is smooth, serviced twice.
The engine doesn't burn oil between services.
Fresh MOT, small advisory for pads, have new pads ready to install by the new owner. I always buy my parts in advance.
No knocks, bangs or weird noises
Majority motorway mileage very light wear on engine
Small scuffs on wheels + tiny dent on the right wing (shown in photos)
Otherwise, very clean for its age
I hardly use the car now, apart from the occasional weekend or long trip. My daily commute is done in a Hyundai Ioniq electric, so the Octavia only saw around 200 miles last year between MOTs. It deserves someone who'll enjoy it more than I currently do.
