Hi guys n gals

1st post here but been looking to get a Ibiza cupra turbo for a few months and going to look at my 1st one on sunday.

Its a Blue X reg 2000 with 98500miles

What sort of things should i be looking for as i couldnt find a buyers guide on the site.

Ive read about somethings like:

Rust under the rear wiper
Air con makes sure its blowing cold
Cheack temp sensor for outside temp (How do i get that up on the display)

Anything else i should really know about?

Hello and welcome mate.
Temp guage comes on when the ignition is on. Its on the centre display.
Just check it pulls well through all the gears and theres no funny noises from the engine.

look out for basic things like full service history crucial!, cambelt ,water pump, check to see if panels line up etc and make sure u see invoices for all above work
