    Hi,

    I'm going looking at a 2002 VW Bora 1.4 petrol tomorrow. I've never owned a VW before so is there anything I should be looking out for?

    Anybody give me any clues??

    Thanks

    Wow, that car could do with a good t-cut.

    Hopefully it checkes out ok, good realible cars they are..

    If a t-cut is all it needs then that'll do me :D

    That looks rough enough, to be honest. Have a mechanic you trust give it a once over before you part with a penny.

    Those 1.4 litre engines are very soft and known for burning a lot of oil too. You would be better off trying to find a 1.6 litre at the very least.
