Madam wants one of these. Other than checking service history and cam belt and water pump changes, is there anything we should be checking?
depends what engine is fitted, I had one and the mpg was woeful (2 litre 8v) the diesel is ok but prices a premium, build quality is crapola traction warning/abs lights often come on vag com finds faults galore - it IS NOT a golf in a different dress, the wiring harness is a butchered mess from a golf though - join www.evvo.co.uk for a looksee on the faults, I wouldn't have another.
luckily she doesn't do many miles, so MPG shouldn't affect us too much. her last car averaged 3000 miles a year. pictures of one with nasty daisy wheels was produced the other day. I think the plan is I wont use it.
