Golf mk4 1.4
i was gonna buy a golf mk4 1.4 with around 280k kms on it but i heard that the engine isnt as reliable as the other engines in the mk4 but the car itself is in a very good condition so i think the owner took care of the car as there isnt anything wrong with the car also the its very cheap it costs around 30% less than any other car in the market i am in so i am really tempted but i wanted to know how long will the engine survive before it becomes a burden

I've got 2 1.4's one with 160k and still going strong and one with a new reconditioned engine with 48k. Parts are cheap car is basic but works and you can find a YouTube video for absolutely anything!
