New phone to replace my dying blade...

Bought this today. Audi A3 1.9 TDi 110 3dr Diesel Hatchback 2003

It needs a new tyre, the wing mirror replacing, and an MOT so I'll have to wait until next Saturday to pick it up!

Drives beautifully though. It's an auto and I'm converted tbh.

But what did you pay for it?

Jic89 · 16 Feb 2013 at 15:59

Here come the Motors men to hammer your selection choice. Just say someone gave it to you

Haha! I paid £3,100. It's done 76k.

Why no mot? Does the autobox affect mpg much?

Because it expired?

Yeah it had expired and I think the dealer was just delaying until he sold it so he could sell it with a full 12 months. On the previous MOT it had 2 advisories; a trye needed replacing and wing mirror glass was cracked, both of which have been/are being replaced.

The MPG on this car is great apparently. It's quoted as 55.4 MPG combined.

Make sure you have 12 months of pay slips and your experian credit history ready. This is essential when discussing a car purchase on OcUK you see

dirtychinchilla · 16 Feb 2013 at 17:29

Haha absolutely, I shall have the Pinkertons round any moment.

Looks nice.

I bought this the other day... And I'm quite amazed at how bomb-proof it is, anyone guess what it is? Blanked out the name so it's not trivially easy to find out...

Salt and pepper shaker?

3 bedroom Victorian semi?

Far too easy

Yeah it's a sealed camping one, the build quality on it is something else though, feels like solid steel!

Indeed. Nice garden, vegetable patch and man-shed included. The gate is mine as well which is a massive bonus.

Keep £1k aside for a flywheel, if it hasn't gone already trust me it will!

I have the same gearbox in my A4, fantastically smooth but hit me with a £800 bill just before Xmas!

Auto transmissions cars don't have a flywheel - so thats a bonus - but a 1.9tdi auto A3 isn't going to set the world on fire..........

I like these houses, lovely high ceilings and they really don't make it like them anymore.
