Thank you both for the replies @Gaz @nta16 Realised I didn’t put enough info in the there! Here’s the link to the auto trader ad - http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202501218234963?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios-app It’s a DSG 6 speed, 2.0l petrol. Full Skoda service history with no out of service repairs that he’s told me about. He’s got paper print outs / copies of the services which I’ve seen but doesn’t have a service log book, is that normal? Can I check the services and what’s been done somehow? Standard things like oil change and filters have been done but hard to see if for example the panoramic sunroof has been serviced or the gearbox etc. He purchased the car from a friend who works at a Skoda garage and had the car as is company car, I think. So he’s technically the first owner but it was originally registered with the garage, is that normal? Most of the services he’s had done are at this garage. MOT history is full and looks pretty standard, one fail due to a nail in tyre, shock absorber with light misting, wiper that needs replacing. He's only put 2k miles on it in the last year I think because he’s been wanting to sell. He’s had the front pads and discs replaced recently and had a new water pump recently fitted. I’ve read that new advice concerning the timing chain is that it doesn’t need replacing until 120-140k miles is that right? I’ve done a HPI check and everything looks good, no outstanding credit etc. I’ve cross checked the VIN number on the v5c to the one on the car and they match up so that’s all correct. Visual inspection of the car looked good, apart from a few dents and some peeling paint, it does look like he’s taken care of it. The test drive was good too but I'm not an expert or hugely knowledgeable on cars as you can probably tell so hard to know. What else should I be looking at, and what do you think about pricing? This will be my first used car purchase so a little out of my depth here.

Hi All, New to the forum here and just looking for some advice, I posted in a different section of this website and was told to try here. I’m looking at purchasing my first Skoda superb mk3 sportline 2.0L 220ps, it’s a 6 speed DSG early 2018. It’s done 60k miles and is in good condition apart from a few dents to the bodywork, some scuffs to the alloys and a small section of peeling lacquer. Inside is really in good nick, I’ve taken it for a test drive and it seems smooth and has no noticeable issues. It’s just been serviced and MOTd with no advisory’s and has had 1 owner who’s looked after it. Only thing is he hasn’t really done much mileage in the last year so I think it’s just been doing shorter journeys. I don’t have much experience with cars so just looking for some advice. It’s from a private seller who’s got it on for £15,700. Thanks
