Default Buying a used TT
I am moving on from VW,s
The 2000 coupe TT's are going at a decent price lately. Any worries at around 50,000 miles???
What are you opinion of the best splitter and body kit combinations that are on the market?
Any pics are appreciated.

Thanks

50K the Timing belt should be changed within the next 5K miles, better off w/ a 2001 for the 225QC

Default Check the maintenance records, and do the timing belt early.
Personally I really like the DMC splitter. here are 2 places to start looking.

Yeah, I'm just saying it's not a big rush for him. It's not a reason "not to buy" IMO.
