Default Code Help Needed

So I am in the process of acquiring a 4.2L 2001 Quattro. I have been told by the owner that the dealership said the car would need a new 02 sensor because the check engine light came on. I recently drove the car and had my cousin use is Vag machine pull the following code. If you can give me some help as to what this could be so I dont go buying oxygen sensors right of the bat if this wont solve the problem. Could you also tell me where I can find the sensors on the car as well since we both are a little be of the DIY kind. Anyhelp as to where to purchase the O2 sensor if needed will be appreciated. Thanks a lot.

P0150 O2 Sensor Circuit - Malfunction (Bank 2 Sensor 1)
