So are the engines not meant to make any sort of noise like this? Went to see another one yesterday and it sounded similar?

Engine 'tick' normal?

Is this engine 'tick' normal? Receiving mixed opinions. scirocco R 11 plate on 91k. Seller assured me it was normal, reading various forums it would appear the engines are quite 'ticky' but to this extent?

Re: Back to reality . . .

that mileage is pretty mega! my 2010 car with only 30k on the clock and some decent options (dynaudio, 19's, winter pack, xenons etc) was £15,995 and I paid £15,500 Looking around, I consider that an extremely good price, as it is a 1 owner car with full main VW dealer history. £13k for a car with ...

Re: Went to see an R today . . . Help!!!!

Of course totally agree with you, tbh it is in my opinion a very good deal (so it seems) and I have had the upper hand of talking to the previous owner before he sold it to the garage (reason for sale was he couldnt adjust to such a small car from what he was used to). As i said everything else seem...
