Any advice on buying a Golf?

Hi. I am going to buy a Volkswagen Golf around 2010/2011. Any advice for checking the details of the car? How much shall I need to prepare? Thanks s mil

Our answer:

Hi Ray,

Getting a history check is always a good idea (Cartell.ie is the place to start) and after that make sure it has a full service history. Golf weak points are the clutch, the diesel particulate filter, electrical systems and engine management so check carefully for any warning lights.
