Description from the seller, in Finnish.

Meillä tilapäiskäytössä ollut Skoda joutaa nyt seuraavalle käyttäjälle. Auto on teknisesti täysin toimiva ja mukavan tuntuinen ajettava. Myös kaikki "sähköherkut" toimii. Varustetasoltaan Elegance, sisältäen mm. automaatti-ilmastoinnin ja vakionopeudensäätimen. Huollettu säännöllisesti, viimeisin öljynvaihto 286053 km 2/2026. Jakoketjukin on kertaalleen vaihdettu. Ei vikavaloja eikä vikakoodeja. Ilmastoinnin täyttöhuolto kesäkuussa 2026 Mukaan tulee hyvät Goodyearin nastarenkaat peltivanteilla. Kahdet toimivat kaukosäätöavaimet. Ruostuminen helmoista on näissä tyyppivika. Tässä ei ole kuitenkaan hitsattavaa. Ostinkin jo aineita ruosteen käsittelyyn, jotka saa mukaan. Ajoaikaa 17.12.2026 saakka. Ei vaihtoa!
