Car is fantastic despaite a few items which have failed
Bought the car from a main dealer 3 years old with 37k on the clock.
Car looks and drives fantastic, however its a bit noisey but after review this maybe down to the tyres (see Black Circles web site). Boot and bonnet both had minor signs of rust but both were placed under warraty and look great.
Radiator split at 45k but this again was replaced under warranty.
Only issue is the stereo which would not play mp3's so had to change this for a full 7" screen unit.
Servicing costs are starting to mount up with DSG gear box fluid change and cambelt (£600) but if you want the warranty you have to have it done.
