Hi.

Looks nice and the history seems complete.

One niggle for me would be trans fluid maybe needs doing. VW charge tons for the fluid they use but cheaper compatible alternatives are available. Plus here (UK) a timing belt would be expected to last maybe 50k.

Do you have an engine code ?

There are a few TDIs on here, search is your friend. There is also an ongoing debate on VW reliability.

Good luck.
