Positive:

- Fantastic condition Recaro seats. The leather is not worn and all the heating elements work.

- Non smoker owners. Interior is very tidy overall.

- The car has been well serviced

- All tyres have over 6mm tread (one is brand new)

- Feels tight to drive and performance is strong

- No rust

- The exterior has been pre-bruised so you don’t have to worry about doing it

 

Less positive:

- The exterior has been pre-bruised so you don’t have to worry about doing it. There are various bumps, dents and scrapes around the car. Looks OK from 5m, but less good up close. The wheels are fairly kerbed, though straight. The front bumper is cracked on the Fr left corner, though some expertly applied, gaffa tape hides it reasonably well.

- Engine runs well, smoothly, pulls well etc, though the OBD light is on (seems to be very common on Polo!). The fault codes indicate front lambda sensor. You can get a universal 5-wire Bosch one for about 20-odd.

- The drivers window switch is intermittent (regulators are fine)

- drivers side window switch intermittent

- One wheel bearing is a slightly noisy (think it’s front left). It drives fine, wheel turns OK and doesn’t have play, but it may want doing at some point in the next year or so. New bearing itself is £10, or you can get a whole 2nd hand hub for about £20.

 

The stand out feature on this car is the interior, which is worth 350-400 on its own. The seats are super comfortable and supportive (as you’d expect Recaros to be) and warm up very quickly. The interior is excellent condition, has been looked after well and is a very nice place to sit. The car has been looked after mechanically, but the exterior has taken a few knocks having been parked on a narrow road.

 

Viewing welcome, car located in Cranfield, Beds.

 

£550 Ono
