I've been looking for a while and have finally shortlisted 2 used 2015 1.2TSI SEL's with <20K miles on the clock which seem to fit our requirements and the respective (franchised Skoda) dealers have put some quite good deals together for us. I wasn't going to use a finance product but we get 2 years extended warranty, a free MOT and 2 services for £159 if we do, so I'm going down that route and then paying it off ASAP.
Before I hand over a deposit; is there anything I should really be concerned about with the 1.2TSI units? I doubt there's any mechanical difference in the engines but we're looking at the 90PS outputs (should that make a difference). Both cars are manual.
The car will be used by my wife and cover 5-6K miles per year meaning it won't cover many miles between annual services so oil/filter quality should be as good as it can be.
Also are there any recalls or service campaigns that I should be ensuring have been completed?
