-------
Due to having moved abroad after studies, my lovely Skoda Octavia Scout 4x4 from 2009 is available for sale.
It's a used car with some quirks that I'll happily tell you about, but overal it's a very comfortable car that has been a good friend to me for the past three years. Unfortunately however, I cannot keep it with me now that I live abroad.
Some key info:
Skoda Octavia Scout 4x2 (2009)
All-wheel drive, 138 bhp, 2.0 TDI (Diesel)
Current mileage: ~180.000 (will increase slightly while returning to Wales)
Registration number: PK59 PKZ
Two keys available
Properly maintained in Bangor for the last three years, maintenance records available
MOT until September 22nd
Expected service items for MOT:
- Regular service
- Replacement of front tires
Plus points:
- Rear tires replaced by all-seasons in 2023
- Replaced battery by higher-capacity VARTA in 2026
- Includes hill-hold, visual parking assist, cruise control and very good airconditioning
Known issues:
- There is a leak in the turbo/DPF, which makes the car a little hesitant sometimes between 1500 and 2000rpm. Complicatd repair, but has been a steady issue during my 3-year ownership that does not cause any real issues. Shifting down a gear to increase revs under load (such as uphill) gets around the issue.
- There' is an electrical fault with the dashboard, which means some lights aren't quite working as intended. This is purely an issue in the dashboard itself, and has no effect on the electrics of the rest of the car. According a car electrician this can be repaired without replacement, although it needs to be sent off for two weeks (which is why personally did not get around to it).
- After recent battery replacement of the car key, remote lock/unluck only works in close proximity to the car. This can potentially be solved by a car mechanic.
- Other age-related items: windows squeek when it's dry/warm, the odd scratch and minimal rust spots (which have been sealed), a little dent in the front window which has been there since before my ownership (may have been filled)
