Description
For sale is my 2007 Skoda Octavia VRS finished in black - a practical, quick and increasingly sought-after hot hatch that offers outstanding performance for the money. Priced at 2,250, this represents excellent value for a genuine VRS with a strong history and solid mechanical condition.
The previous owner has owned the car since 2012 and maintained it exceptionally well. It comes with an extensive service history, reflecting careful, consistent upkeep rather than minimal maintenance. The last service was carried out at 124,000 miles, and the car appears to have had brakes all round very recently, further highlighting how well it has been looked after. It has clearly been maintained properly, not just run on a budget.
Mechanically, the car is immaculate - it drives exactly as a VRS should, with strong performance, smooth power delivery and no unwanted knocks, bangs or warning lights. The engine pulls hard through the gears, the gearbox is precise, and the clutch and brakes all feel as they should.
The 2.0 turbo engine delivers an impressive blend of performance and everyday usability, making this a fantastic all-rounder. It's just as comfortable on a motorway commute as it is on a back road. The VRS trim offers supportive sports seats, a practical and spacious interior, and the solid build quality Skoda is known for.
Cosmetically, the car is average for its age. It presents well overall but does show age-related marks and wear consistent with an 18-year-old vehicle. It's not a show car, but it's honest and respectable, and the condition is reflected in the price.
If you're looking for a mechanically sound, well-maintained Octavia VRS with proven history and plenty of life left in it, this is a great opportunity. Sensibly priced at 2,250 for a quick sale. Serious enquiries welcome.
