Basically you're looking / feeling for any pitting / marks etc on the cam and the followers themselves

Thank you rhyso,
Not experienced enough to just go whipping engine bits off 
Ive done services and uprated inlets on my corsa but then again its a corsa and costs £4.72 to fix 
So i need to look for clicking, white smoke, turbo noises etc etc or do they just go all of a sudden??

Ok just test driven a gt tdi 130 on 44k and bugger me they are quite nippy!
Very quiet engine ( quieter than my gf's 08 clio 1.5 dci, which wound her up :lol: )
Couldnt hear any clicking just the normal knocking noise deisels make.
Turbo whistle noise is quite loud though.
Nice smooth power.

He wants £5250 which seems fair, its got the climate control which works perfectly.

Anything else i should be looking for?

sounds good, what colour is it??? let me guess... silver lol, price sounds fairly good, see if you can knock him down abit though.

No black 
Had a silver car for too long now and fancy a black one. Yes its hard to keep cleanbut when you do its amazing
Already knocked him down from £5990, nearest in mileage is 77k for £4850.
Not much down here on sub 120k tbh

sounds good, good to hear its not silver, there as common as horse sh*t with golfs, black is a smart colour, not as cool as indigo blue though

lol, sorry, dont get me wrong, silver is still a nice colour but imo is just way to common these days and espcially with vw's
