Personal opinion on Audi/VW:
If you are looking for a used one, it HAS to have full, documented and verified service history from either a Audi/VW dealer or known Audi/VW independant service shop and the oil must have been changed regularly with the correct oil and filter. Otherwise: no buy.

At that mileage it's definitely timing belt/water pump/tensioner/thermostat time and possibly front suspension control arms too.

Get a PPI!!!
