We picked this up last week for Ã‚£500 with only 57k with fvwsh the guy thought the gearbox had gone so we went to have a look and after a test drive I found it was the wheel bearing I changed it myself and cost Ã‚£28

there's a difference between making your car look like something else and actually badging it up as something else, if i was you i would have gone for just R Line badges front and rear, as you're going to get a lot of non-vag drivers wanting to race you (thinking its an R32) and whilst the 1.8T's quick its no R32.

just my opinion though.
