After just a few weeks of owning the car i was Rear ended whilst stopped in traffic.... a following trip to a Prept meet made me run into a guy with some bumpers for sale so picked up a modded R-Line Front bumper and rear bumper for next to nothing:

Endless problems from this point forward which nearly made me ditch the car and move on but stuck with it and fixed:

Convenience module error

Ignition barrel problems causing a wide range of weird happenings with the car

A dodgy alarm siren that insisted going off at random hours of the night - result was the backup battery in the alarm siren.

Rear seat folding mechanism failure

DSG gearbox P N D R S lights all flashing at the same time ( this hasnt been solved yet but possible mechatronic replacement) although its only happened twice in a few months ( keeping an eye on this one)
