opinions on this VR6 please

[vjr]

Hi all, new to forum and VWs,

I'm looking at a 1996 VR6 with 122K Km. Seems nice, has had some things seen to already such as ABS and A/C, supposedly good logs (haven't seen them yet though). Had a drive and sounds sweet, smooth, no noises. As far as I know nothing has been done, e.g. new engine/clutch/gearbox or anything.

Gut instinct is good, I'm usually lucky enough with cars, touch wood.

Can get it for around $7,500. On the face of it, seem like a good deal? Just wish it was black, but hey.. silver FTW!

Also, any VW mechs around Melbourne (city area) to be recommended for pre-purchase check? And/or any kind souls on this forum care to glance over it?

Any help appreciated!
