Before you buy this car
From the generation guide
- Look through the wheel at the rear discs and pads. Check whether the car has rear discs or drums; drums last longer. Bad result: deep grooves, rust, or pads a few millimetres thick. Expect 150-400 EUR (Germany, year not stated).
- Ask a dealer to check the VIN for seatbelt warning campaign KBA 013014 (VW code 90V6). Bad result: an open campaign, or the belt warning wrong in the cluster.
- Ask a dealer to check the VIN for curtain airbag campaign VW 69AN. Bad result: an open campaign.
- Drive over bumps and run the dashboard vent with the car cold. Bad result: a squeak from the pillar beside the windscreen, or a rattle that stays after warm-up.
- Test the wipers in heavy rain. Bad result: judder or sticking blades.
- Ask for the brake fluid change record. It is due every two years. Bad result: no record. About GBP 80 in the UK (year not stated).
- Ask a dealer for all open campaigns by VIN, not only those listed here. Bad result: any open campaign.
