T reg gti t with full leather seats, winter pack and 119 on clock. Full service history and cam belt replaced at 86k. No fault codes and very tidy throughout. Is 2325 a good price?

Cambelt nearly due again.
Not a mint price not too bad.
I paid 2250 for mine pretty much as is, more miles though but lowered, remapped, tints, loads of bits changed like engine mounts, rear bushes for powerflex ones, powerflex dog bone mount, stuff like that.. 126k on it at the time but I bought it on the provisio the cambelt was due. So 300 quid later it was, along with thermostat, fuel filter and lots more lol.
Owes me about 3k all in 6 months on as clutch been changed too... thought it was a good car being owned by an RAF engineer for 3.5 years but you get what you pay for I spose :)
Cheap turbo'd cars will always cause bother and have costs you don't want haha.

ye when buying a ten yr old car expect to change most bushes occasionaly suspension as it has gone soft and feels like taking a corner in a yatch, exhaust could poss need changin if it hasnt been done. as dave said cam belt then a service as its always best to do this when u buy a used car unless they have proof that it has been done for peace of mind when driving it...
