Most likely one of the auxiliary radiators, common failure given age and no record of replacement but easily fixable. Hope it's sorted fairly quickly for you by the car dealer.

Hi Stew
This coming sat is GTI NI day at Castlewellan forest park, lots of VAG stuff, including a few other RS's of different types.
It is normally a great day out.

Good luck with your new purchase!
