    pre purchase inspection - used 2011 v6 fsi

    Hi Guys,

    Looking at buying a v6 passat wagon, 2011, 110,000km.
    the inspection notes the following:
    - Front tyres are bald and rear tyres are down to 1mm.
    - Radiator support/lock carrier is broken.
    - Exhaust pipe is leaking from middle clamp.
    - Lambda probes before and after catalytic converter are damaged.
    - Under tray is damaged.
    - Muffler leaking.
    - Brake discs are getting low and will need to be replaced soon.
    - Front wipers are streaky.
    - Vehicle due for a 120,000km service in November.

    I imagine most things should be fixed asap?

    Any thoughts on cost for parts/labour or remedial/suitable fixes?

    Thanks for your help.

    I'd walk away.

    Sounds like it's done some off-roading beyond it's capabilities.
