Also be on the look out for any flaring being modded. Try and do some wide open changes if possible.Rubber in the guards lolUsual clunks from bushes. Not a deal breaker but may be able to knock the price down a bit.Worn power window switches, one of my rear ones was farked when I bought it. Didn't even notice.Outside temp sensor incorrect, another thing I didn't notice.Make sure the aircon is cold and all works properly(mixer shaft)Umm not sure what elseEdit: leaks around timing cover, rough idle.If your really keen take a screw driver so you can remove some piping to check turbo shaft play. Hopefully it already has an after market oil feed and filter or screen removed Edited 08/02/15 12:00 AM by barnz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's had it for only two it limits the time he could have thrashed it tbh.- 20' staggered wheels with Pirelli P Zero rubber, plenty of tread- Lowered on King Springs- Rapid Intercooler- 3.5' X-Force exhaust from turbo back- Herrod cold air intake- 80lb Siemens injectors- SCT 3 tune box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 2011, has 40,000km on it. Has had at least 15k spent on it. Brakes, suspension, wheels, power. An extra 15k is a lot. I would want as new and as low km you can afford.

Make sure it's all quality parts and done by a well known tuner though Getting one with a built zf would be awesome cos that's 4 or 5 grand right there Edited 09/02/15 01:21 AM by Lennox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
