Beware of my old R

Post by Supermike »

Hello all,

Seen a similar post and thought I should share too. Please be aware of a White Scirocco R for sale by a certain VW dealer in Aberdeen. NJ17 PCU. This vehicle has been in a serious accident, to the extent that at least the 3/4 panel has been replaced and not very well as it turns out. Potentially more issues, you will probably notice the car isn't on original wheels either....

Long story short, we had nothing but problems with this car since we first bought it with around 30k miles and kept discovering more and more issues, eventually the VW dealer bought it back and we managed to get a replacement from another garage.

If you would like the full story of our issues I would be happy to share.

Did you know this before you brought it? or was that one of the discoveries?
