Before you buy this car
From the generation guide
- Gearbox: check the build date. On a 1.4, 1.6 or 1.9 SDI manual car built up to July 2001, ask for proof that the gearbox has had its rivet work or a rebuild. A bad result is no proof.
- Clutch: on a manual car, ask when the clutch was last replaced. A bad result is no record on a car with high mileage.
- Windows: test every window up and down, including any automatic function. A bad result is a window that does not move, moves slowly or drops.
- Turbo coils: on a 1.8T built 2001 to early 2003, ask whether the coils were changed. Listen for rough idle. A bad result is rough idle or no coil records.
- VR6 and R32 chain: ask for proof of timing chain work on a VR6 or R32. A bad result is no record on a car with high mileage.
- Oil: on a 1.4 or 2.0 petrol, check the oil level after the test drive and ask about top-ups between services. A bad result is oil that is low between services.
- Crankcase: on a 1.4 built up to early 2002, ask whether the January 2003 heated crankcase ventilation work was done. A bad result is no record.
