Expert Advice Needed

Congratulations and good luck with it. Wow the 5 year warranty has just totally blown me away. There should be more secondhand car dealers out there offering the same thing as it really allows you to buy a car with total confidence knowing that if any problems may arise you are totally covered. Do you know if the warranty is offered by the actual dealer that you purchased at or an independent provider? Perhaps as they know that the car has had $40k spent on it they are confident that nothing could possibly go wrong. Which brings me to my other question, I think that I'm speaking for most of us when I ask that when you have had a chance to sort through those receipts that you could perhaps give us a little update on what your beast has had done to it, I’d say all of us here are salivating at the thought of $40k being thrown into an mk4.

P.S. I have recently heard some disturbing whispers floating around this forum so I think it only fair to give a fellow bora owner the heads up.. rumor is that people have been getting banned for not posting their pics promptly enough..

UPDATE!!!!!!

Yes the pic posted is the Bora.

And on this day i made the deal official and picked it up. I got the car for $23,000. That includes a 5 yr warrenty from today. It covers and problem with the car, in that event i simply call up and send it to any licenced mechanic, which includes any Volkswagen service centre. The warrenty will cover all parts and labour

The car drives great and im happy with it. I agree with you fellow dubbers that the bonet scoop does the car no favours. Will eventually have it removed.

Will post some pics up soon


WISH ME LUCK with my new Bora which is spending its 1st night relaxin in my garage.

Congrats - Watch out on those warranties though - They don't cover all parts and there is usually an excess involved. Ontop of a clause that says "you must get it serviced by us every 10,000kms"

Not worth the paper they're written on.

I have an 02 Bora V64motion and I love every second of it , as long as you cover your bases with the warranty and services have been done thru decent place I say go for it, thats fairly average k's these days anyway. Like everyone else I am curious what $40k receipts are for? even 5 years worth of servicing, maintenance and a heap of mods wouldn't come to that would it?

What the hell, just go for it.....

This is true, but they seem to come up with the goods when needed.
