Beautiful car only done 21k elderly gent had it + Skoda demonstrator. Electric everything, stacks of service bills & really looked after.Couple of scuffs on the alloys, however that'll give me something to do in the spring. Well chuffed with it especially 40+ mpg on the motorway. Its had a really easy life & only 700 miles from its last MOT to its new one.

Looks very nice and even a brolly :o Lovely colour too ... reminds me of the passat shape .
-
Looks nice mate - just a shame its a Skoda ???
-
Pretty much all the taxi companies have these around here. Sick of the sight of them tbh but that looks well nice especially the inside, looks like you got your self a keeper there :y
-
Looks tidy :y
-
Superb.. :y

I like them, shame people's opinion can't change about the Skoda badge mind.

It's probably a good thing. If people realised how good they were they would be more expensive, just like the Omega ;)

I'm in a bit of a quandary at the minute, and uming & arrring about what to do :-\ :-\ :-\
It had a cambelt & tensioner change in 2009 at 14802 miles and is due another one soon some 6000 miles later. The service book states that it should be done at 4 yrs or 40k. for the sake of spending a couple of hundred £££ on it I'm inclined to change it for piece of mind as I know a snapped belt is curtains, but its only done 6k since the last one BUT 4 years :-\ :-\ :-\

Get DarthLooKnee to do it as well, or Elite Pete. Much cheaper than a garage & you know its done right :y

Don't think they do Skodas Tunnie, do they???

D'oh crap sorry :-[
When I saw 4 years/40k assumed it was Omega :-[ :(

It'll be more than a couple of hundred :-\,book time is four hours and don't expect the belt kit is the cheapest :-X

Is the 2.5 Tdi the Audi v6? Alot of dismantling to get to it iirc :-\

Now that takes me back a few years................
What do you call a Skoda with a sunroof?......................
Why does a Skoda have a heated rear window?....................
No offence to OP, they have changed a lot, love the colour by the way...... :y :y

That seems good value for a dealer. Belt kit is two belts and four idlers with hydraulic tensioner(bdg)
