Following on from my other thread yesterday, i have made arrangements with the guy on this S3 to go view it tomorrow, hes going to hold the car for me seeing as it 3 hours away.

Following concerns of it never having a cambelt, he has located the service showing a cambelt done at around 70K, it has FASH with all receipts, MOT's, even has original toolkit and firstaid kit in boot along with cargo net, the car sounds good and been maintained correctly, just passed its MOT after having front discs and pads replaced.
Have already sorted the money side of it out over the phone and he wants £4750 and no less so i think its a good buy so will be taking cash with me. Only thing he says was done is the front bumper has just been sprayed as it had a couple of stonechips.
I just want your opinions on if it looks/sounds like a good buy, thanks already to Mr.G who has given me some helpful advice but is there anything i need to look out for on the car, will be taking a mate and 2 pairs of overalls to look over the car good but just want to know if theres anything thats really important to look for. Are the engines ok with these kind of miles?.
Thanks is advance
Chris..(who is hopefully going to be an S3 owner this time tomorrow)
