surely i remember you saying miles was over 120k, first thing i would be doing is getting it health checked, engine det/afr etc before modding it.

Was the C2 not a write off or something?

If the guy wants to swap for that I'm pretty certain this Leon will be terrible.

Get a cable from Gendan, download VCDS Lite and scan the car before you do the trade.

Coil packs can be done under recall if not already done.

Stage 1 you will probably need a Better Recirc valve although standard ones are ok if in good working order.

Stage 2 you will probably need the above with large Downpipe, decat or sports cat, cat-back exhaust, FMIC, silicone TIP etc etc.

Most people just go stage 1.

you buy a lead like this

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VAG-COM-USB-VW-AUDI-SKODA-SEAT-DIAGNOSTIC-CABLE-FOR-409-1-OBD2-II-LEAD-/261078372697?pt=UK_Diagnostic_Tools_Equipment&hash=item3cc97bd159

take your laptop outside and plug the lead in and it comes up with fault codes
