Just bought an 2004 2.0 TDI with 120,000 on the clock.
Bought it from an old guy who went blind a year ago so car has not been driven since.
Noticed after a while that it was smoking alot than normal diesel engines do (black smoke) and after a while the engine management light came on.
Now i don't know whether it just needs a good run because it has not been used for a year or if it is something serious.
It does not have road tax or insurance on it at the moment so can't really take it out.
It passed MOT fine 6 months ago..
What do you guys think?
