Feeler: 460bhp 4x4 Octavia Estate - SOLD

[EddyH]

I'm sure many people on here are aware of my car and will be suprised to see me selling it. However due to a change in circumstances that' exactly what I'm contemplating. Below is a few details about the car for those that don't know it and a reminder for those that do.

It's a 2001 '51' Black Magic Octavia 4x4 Turbo Estate which has covered around 73k miles around 20k of which have been since the engine build and turbo conversion. It's totally unique and has had over £20k spent on it including a rebuilt strengthened engine and turbo conversion and 6spd transmission. The car has been RR'd at 460bhp and 390ftlb, running only 1.65bar of boost for reliability, this could be increased quite easily with a tweak of the remap if required . I use the car as my daily driver and it's proved very reliable after minor issues in the early days after the conversion which have all now been sorted. Insurance is also very reasonable costing me £600 a year and I'm under 30. The car is booked in for a service and new discs and pads all round which will be done before selling. Full spec below:

I've attached some pics but unfortunately they aren't completely upto date so I'll try to get some sorted at the weekend.

Asking price is £12,000 but I'll consider any genuine offer. I'll also consider p/x's, ideally I want a A3 2.0TDI Sport/S-Line + cash either way but I'll consider any standard car that I could use to p/x towards my purchase. If a member finds me a buyer there's £50 in it for them.

[EddyH]

The buyer will be kept anonymous until they decide otherwise and I'm sure like me they want to complete the deal first.
