High mileage DSG - how risky, what to look for?
Discussion
Hi,
I've been looking for a tidy Golf GTD estate (2015-2017) for a while and as everyone knows prices are crazy at the moment. Most I've seen really haven't been well looked after, even ones with relatively low mileage. However I've just seen a 2016 with DSG at a reputable local indie dealer with 117k miles on the clock and it looks very tidy, mostly motorway miles and all the services done. It's naturally a fair chunk cheaper as a result.
I'm yet to view in the flesh or test drive but is it financial suicide with that mileage or do these units keep going long after 100k?
When I test drive it, are there any danger signs I should look out for having never driven/owned one with DSG before?
