« on: 29 November 2012, 12:42 »
Got a trade in through my local VW it a dark blue AUM 51 plate gti turbo. It mainly done in last 5 years a 20mile a day journey. If well serviced and body ok i take it the mileage shouldnt be a put off? Bearing in mind im modding it with the usual gear fmic turbo back induction kit. Stage 2 map etc

116k is nothing, check the last cambelt/waterpump change though :wink:

If its serviced with regular oil changes, timing belts changes then go for it.
1.8t's last forever if they looked after. Plenty of them on here over 150k pushing 200bhp+
Prawny has one 350bhp over 200k on clock  :cool:

Perfect just what i wanted to hear. It should be at a bargain price too. Had all tyres replaced few month ago. It was owned by a vw techs wife so should i say should of been properly looked after. If all good ill have plenty left over for toys
