Looked at 2007 V, some rattles around car, info needed

[soflarick]

Friend of mine checked out a 2007 V for me. It has 28k on it. He said while test driving it, he said the driver door arm rest felt a little loose, the brake light on the trunk seemed to jiggle when closing the trunk, some of the chrome around the hood felt a bit loose. He has never been in a V before, so he didn't know if it was normal or not.

I'd like to find out what kind of little things are "normal" on the 06 and 07 V's so I can tell when examining them for possible purchase. I did some searching on the FAQ but didn't see info.

In addition, is there a VIN sticker on the trunk lid? Most cars now have them, but I wanted to be sure when I check the V's I am looking at.

Thanks.

If I turn off the radio in my '07 V I hear rattles and creaks. The headers really help help cover up sounds.

Yes, there is a vin on the trunk lid.
