The 2.0 vRS TFSI has done 120k miles.

I'm also considering a manual 2.0 vRS TFSI (engine code CCZA) (2011). Timing belt will need to be replaced (as it has not been done). I will also get the timing chain tensioner and water pump changed at the same time. Is there anything else that I should consider getting replaced at the same time as the timing belt? I've seen elsewhere on this forum that it would be worth getting the engine mounts looked at, and if necessary replaced. Is there anything else specific to this model that I should be aware of?

Thanks for the tips. Most recent MOT history include suspension pin worn but not excessive play, side repeater light and rear position lamp need replacing.

The seller is a used car dealer, so not the previous owner. BTW I'm based in the UK and as far as I'm aware, the car is not an import. I know that it is an automatic but how would the seller know if it has a DQ200 DSG gearbox? Sorry I wasn't sure if they have a timing chain or cambelt.

Hi this is my first post here. I'm thinking about buying a used 1.8 TSI petrol. It was made in 2011 and has done over 120k miles Is it possible to gauge how many miles I will get out of it? Is it realistic to expect to get an extra 40k-50k miles, over the next 4-5 years? It has full service history and I will check if the cambelt and water pump have been changed. I'm aware of the issues listed on 1.8TSI and 2.0TSI engine failures, but are there any other issues that tend to crop-up with Octavia II 1.8 TSI petrols of that age and mileage.
