Hello all,
The wife is about to take her driving test and I'm looking for a smaller, cheaper and manual car for her to use for not much cash.
A mate has offered me his 2001 Golf GTI (mark IV) 2.0 for £1,300.
Its done 130,000 miles but he is a meticulous kind of guy who has kept a full dealer service history and is the only owner. The car will come freshly serviced with a 12 month MOT and has most of the extras, AC, CD, ABS, etc...
Seems like quite a good deal to me but I know nothing about these cars - is there anything I should look out for in particular or should I just be walking away?
Plenty of mark IV Golf's around for sale at much more than this price so I'm tempted.
Thanks for your input,
KK
