yeah il be takin vagcom or someone with vagcom with me, seen some oily hand marks on top of the engine, dont hear any chain rattle but its hard to tell on your own im no expert on theseThey are not out n out fast but cover ground quickly, effortlessly plus sound and look immense, you feel special when driving them imo
Any one id be looking to buy would be run through proper vagcom
Don't like silver though. Blue, black or red only for me

thats why im worried i thought there might have been something there was unsure as i was on my own and he was away lookin around my car had no one til give it a wee rev, how much did you pay to have them done? there s only 55k on the car i wouldnt have expected them to be needing doneThe chain rattle is easy to miss if you dont know what your looking for. I completely missed it on mine and was only a vagcom check that confirmed that they need done.
for 55k miles the drivers seat was worse than i expected my audi seat is like new with near twice the milesChains is the only thing that would worry me on them and only true way to tell is through vagcom and to check the cam deviation values, i wouldnt care if they told me they replaced them yesterday I'd still check it
Apart from that Haldex servicing, check all the undertrays are on it as they are expensive to replace, and rust. Sunroofs leak, break springs also
Half leather is nicer imo and doesn't sag like full leather
I'd have one in a heartbeat if I didn't have the mk2 golf
right rather than start a new thread, viewed it, drove it i wasnt blown away by the performance if im honest id say my S3 was quicker or not far off but then again its more about the looks, only little gripe i noticed was idle fuctuated a little bit and when you rev it it didnt drop right away it held then dropped slowly

have you vagcom? and if so do you know what your at with it buddy?@Ge0rge I paid £700 for parts and labour to fit new chains, slide rails, tensions and a new sachs clutch. The chains are never supposed to go on them so mileage is irrelevant tbh - I've seen cars with 40k need them and cars at 140k still driving around with the originals.
If its the full leather interior then the drivers seat wear shouldn't be too much to worry about. The leather used for them is crap and always looks like a car of twice the miles. The half leather seats are actually vinyl rather than leather and hold up a bit better over time.

Did you see the Cat D part from the check above? I clicked on it myself but didn't see that ?Ah jesus all was lookin good til I got to the cat d part.... which doesn't bother me but will now need to be reflected in the price a bit more, I thought the price he was looking was fairly reasonable and knew it had to be for a reason, cheers @Coog nothing came up on all the normal ones I try
You be first port of call for advise with how many you have owned after remap il call past shop''Twas a lovely one too, Merlin Purple is such a cool colour.
Can't wait to see what Ruari does with it.
yes had it checked out it was cat d when it was brand new, insurance paid out half the cars value and the car back, its priced accordingly in the deal, it still books at £5500 or so even bein a cat d which i was surprised at must be the low miles...Did you see the Cat D part from the check above?
