Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Independent
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£4,999
When did you buy the car?
March 2013
Did you get a good deal and why?
£4999 , the best money ever spend for a car. The car had 63.000 miles and a lady owner . I fitted a recon turbocharger for better power and k&n air filter, new brake pads and rear brake discs. A full service including Millers oil( the best oil 5w30 nano drive ).
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Space in the rear seats it's bigger than Mercedes s class. All the seats including rears are leather and heated . Engine it's unbelievable 1.9 TDI 130 bhp , engine code AWX- the best engine ever created by Vw . Gearbox 5 sp manual indestructible . The most preferred gadget it's the the photovoltaic sunroof . When it's sun outside the photocell feed the fan and the internal fan takes out the heat from the car . All the heat it's extracted from the car and even if my car had black leather seats and dark grey color it's no heat in the car even if I leave the car in 40 degree Celsius direct sunlight . I open the car and drive straight away no need too open the windows for the heat to came out . Brilliant enovation by German engineers.
What was the dealer like?
Nick King Cars Sale - best garage with genuine people . They help me more than enough with the car finance , collected me from the train station and provide free mechanical breakdown waranty. Not enough words to thank them ..best guys ever Nick King Cars Sales in Gloucester .
