Hi guys, update on the health check at VW this morning. Nothin really substantial mechanical wise

1) fuel protector cover damaged
2) slightly scored brake discs
3) pads 50% worn
4) console bushes.

Not to bad for a 5year old car however i did find out it was a UK supplied dutch import. Now i love the car, it has good miles and excellent history and i paid a decent price for it but it has just taken the shine off it a little bit tbh.
What has surprised me is i saw it by chance on the service advisors pc, even she didnt notice. It doesnt show anything on the hpi (theres usually details missin or unknown) or anything anywhere.  :confused:
