Going to view this, any help would be great! Is it about the right price, condition etc?

Thanks in advance :)

Price looks about right if in top condition. It is advertised as an ED 30 on autotrader but not the right spec for that so need to check this out. Check the service record carefully - needs to be complete and if any repairs completed and what they are. You need to make sure the car has not been started prior to you arriving - listen carefully on start-up for rattles. Wheels should not have ANY scratches/damage - £100 each to refurb! Should not be any damage/scratches to the paintwork if it has been well looked after - mine has none 6 months older and about the same mileage. If it has a VW history and it probably will for at least the first 3 years you can check for any service/repairs by phoning the local VW dealer with the registration number. Most, but not all, are happy to tell you. Good luck.
