lmao, cheers mate!!!!

it was bad enough on the test drive. the mrs was worse than me!

Welcome to Briskoda. :wavey: Check whether on variable or fixed servicing and, if the former, try and get the dealer to donate some LongLife oil FOC. (It costs an arm and a leg).

Just the usual stuff to look out for - are the tyres all legal, evenly worn and of the same brand on each axle? Is service history complete? If nearing cambelt change try to get it done before you take ownership. What warrenty is offered? Was it subject to the coilpack problem - have they been changed? Oh - a full tank of petrol should always seal the deal!

hi mate, just read ur next mod, leather? doesn't the vrs come with this as standard?

ps, how do i find out if its suffered from coilpacks? i'm buying from main dealer and it has 12 months parts and labour warranty so hopefully it will be covered though!!!

Just watch out for those "pillow" type speed humps they'll take your sump off no problem but apart from that enjoy
