I used to have a mk5 R32 before I got my C-Class, I still regret selling it ! One of the best sounding motors you can buy.
I dunno how you managed 35 mpg out of it, I never saw above 25 in mine ha.
I'd second this... I bought mine 3 weeks ago with 99k on the clock, but it is a one owner with a huge folder of documented history and it in great shape for a car with 100k on the clock. It depends what you want the car for as to what you buy.. Do you want a show car to cherish or a track toy...
I've got the mine booked in there at the end of the month ! I keep hearing nothing but good things, I've spoke to Simon a few times on the phone and he knows his stuff. Maybe give him a phone call.
My temperature gauge seems to be playing up...
I've owned the car for 3 weeks and the temp gauge never reaches halfway (as I have read it should once warm).
It seems to fluctuate just below halfway and 1/4. Also the rev limiter is kicking in at 6800rpm rather than 7200rpm.
My plan is to...
The exterior in good condition, a few stone chips on the bonnet that need sorting, and it's missing the front splitter ! Inside is immaculate no wear on the recaros, just the usual melting steering wheel. The wheels could also do with a refurb.
I'm planning on getting the dampers refurbished...
