Coilpacks are there weak points and they have 4 of them. Only about £25 each to replace.

Other than that there good little cars.

MK3 owner here. Check the fuse holder on top of the battery. Prone to getting fried, which can mess up the cooling and air con.

Other than that 3 years of faultless driving.
