As the title goes, I may be looking at a '02 Vrs in the next few days.
What are common issues on these, or what sort of spec do they come with? Are they all 180bhp?

Anything you wish to add, feel free.

They are all 180bhp Mick, they also have 312mm front discs and 256mm vented rears.
Half leather and aircon is standard afaik, xenon lights were on the tour model.
I think 16" wheels were standard too.

Out of the box the 180bhp engine is nothing special, a few mods transform it though.

Make sure it's beed serviced, oil sludge and all that, breather pipes split causing running problems on the 1.8t.
Everyone will mention coil packs but I've only ever had one die in 50+k miles driving.

mick iv had a few, were u looking at the car?

hard to get a good one here at the min, they have all the usual mk4 golf shite. big things would be oil changes, timimg belt etc.

pm me if ya want ill think of more stuff in the morning lol try to remember the specs list when i worked in skoda lol

they go well with a remap if u want a spin in one give me a bell.

I got a look at the car, seems straight, the guy who owns it wouldn't drive it hard. Typical irish service history though.

I havn't taken it for a spin yet though. I'm told everything electrical works, which if its mk4 based would be unusual..

Its got climatronic actually, if thats rare? Interior is cleanish despite the white carpets.

 

[Razor]

clima was an option here

I don't think you should be allowed near another Octavia Micheál

With 200k plus the rest, I was merely putting it out of its misery..
