Thanks Eklipze3kIt for the quick reply,it has full service history,is there anything to look out for with the engine noises etc
 
We have a 1.4 Multiair on 110k at the min, and we bought it at 99k with only 3 service stamps... so far no mechanical problems at all. It is a bit rattly at this mileage but does the job.
 
They are rattly from new, it's just the way the MuliAir unit works..
The correct oil, as described in the service handbook, is very important.
Best practice to change it a bit more often, like every 6-7000 mls, incl. filter.
Often overlooked, but VERY important at these somewhat higher milages, is to change the MultiAir strainer/filter, it's NOT in the sevice schedule, but should be changed at every ~30.000mls.
Engine will last forever.
