| EddyH's Octavia - For Sale. (again, yes I know so soon) The Octavia is not for me despite throwing several hundred more ££ at it to tailor it to my own tastes. A Touareg becons for me now. Specs as Eddy listed save for the few bits I changed below. Its a tidy car, huge spec, goes like a scud missile with the stealth to match, but its not for me. I miss the big car feel of my S8 badly. 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. Full spec below: Engine Custom Code Phase 3 Remap GT3071R Turbo Stainless steel equal length manifold Inconnel valves with 1mm bigger inlet Pauter rifle drilled rods JE overbore pistons (with cylinders rebored to match) 550cc RC Injectors 4bar Fuel Pressure Regulator Additional Uprated Fuel Pump Forge Diverter Valve Power Gasket Intake Manifold Gasket Custom Engine Bay Earthing Kit Green Cotton Air Filter in modified airbox with cold air feed Turbo Back Exhaust with 6x4 oval exiting through vRS style rear bumper with milotec diffuser Forge Front Mount Intercooler Forge alloy oil catch tank Silicone Hoses 10k mile Lube Service just done, Motul 300V oil *new* Transmission Audi TT 6 speed gearbox and associated driveshafts and prop Spec Stage 3+ Clutch Uprated Haldex 4wd controller New Factory G'box Oil Change *new* Chassis H&R Comfort line Coilover suspension Forge adjustable rear tie bars R32 Anti-Roll Bars OZ Super leggera 18" Alloy Wheels with carbon fibre centre caps ECS Stage 2v2 front brakes (Porsche calipers and 332mm 2 piece grooved discs) R32 rear brakes with 256mm grooved discs Braided Brake Lines Uprated Engine and Gearbox Mounts Poly bushes 4 new GSD3 Eagle F1 tyres *new* Detachable Towbar *new* Interior Full Leather R32 interior Leather R32 Steering Wheel with matching 3 spoke Skoda airbag (NOT VW shown in the photo) R32 pedals and dead pedal R32 Gearknob and handbrake R32 Mats Leather Armrest Aluminium Door Pins VW Golf Instrument Cluster with full height centre display W8 Interior Light Aluminium Drivers Door Finger Plate Red Switch Illumination Blue Illuminated Climate Panel Cruise Control ICE VW Version D Sat Nav with full colour screen and also displays directions on the instrument cluster centre display VW OEM Phatbox (20gig HDD MP3 player controlled by HU) Exterior vRS Front Bumper Milotec rear diffuser with exhaust cut out OEM Parking Sensors Colour coded rubbing strips all round Headlight Eyebrows Debadged Body Coloured front and rear emblems (Standard badges also available) Aero Wipers Mudflaps vRS smoked side repeaters Colour coded high level brake light Red std tail lights (colour coded also available) Delocked Window tints (not pimp, light fronts, medium rears) *new* Full T-Cut & Meguires Polish (now gleeming & shiny) *new* Asking price is £11,450 ovno Contact Bill on 07976 800775 or bill@badger5.co.uk thanks Bill

| Shirley, this has to be 'the' ultimate Q-Octavia? Would I be right in thinking you wouldn't be able to get standard spider alloys over the front brakes?

| Its one of the most unassuming cars out there but packs a punch when needs be. handles well to, stops well (very well) very capable B road motoring.

| Its got a free flowing giant green cone filter on it now (off my racecar) which makes a difference. replumbed pcv system, simplified vacuum lines, and runs nicer than ever. It has to go to make way for new car. Grab a bargain: Now £10,999 ono no sensible offer refused

| Just a mild, sort of uninterested enquiry- what would 0-60mph and fuel consumption be on this? |
