Keep a close watch on the engine oil level as they can use a bit.

Its a "52" - ie 2003MY built in September 2002 and registered in September 2002, with 64,000 miles. Its oil consumption is nothing like my 2,8 V6 B5 Passat (its always liked some oil from new!) - but ignore checking the BBY 1.4 oil level at your peril, the low oil level warning will save the day if Seat fitted them!

Its just that some people (and I used to be one of them) tend to think modern engines never need oil adding between services.
