  • All this week I'm going to see if I can rescue an abandoned FREE Skoda Octavia, fix it up, get it NCTd and SELL IT. Today we find out if this piece of moss starts and runs ok!
    **The last 30 seconds hasn't uploaded and I've no idea why so sorry for the sudden ending**
    I want to see if I can work my way from a FREE CAR to something more desirable.

    john on the tail lights on those Octavia's, there are 4 tail lights each side to form a C shape and the reverse C on the drivers side.

    The video ends a bit abruptly, in case you didn’t notice. 😜

      I did, no idea what happened. Its missing the last 30 seconds. We'll just say my laptop is being pushed beyond what it's capable of right now

      I've 2 series of this filmed, I'll see how it goes. I sold my Megane cabby to invest in this so if it pays off great if not, no harm done

    Absolutely crazy to scrap a car like this , that Skoda has at least another 100k kms if it’s maintained properly

      Easily. The problem for the owner was the hassle of selling it. It's a strange situation to be in and they weren't in the position to have oddballs calling to the door.

    ....was perfect when parked up so no real surprise it's not ok couple of years on 😊

      It's always a gamble as to weather it was, and water ingress in the meantime could kill a car. But the smell inside was too good so wasn't worried about that
