Wet Boot

[Jimmy Mc]

Just going to pick this car up in a couple of days , A3 SE 1.6 TDI 2011 Sportback and on second test drive realised boot is wet on both sides of boot, should I walk away from deal or is this an easy fix? No smells of damp or signs of water damage up high

If it were me I wouldnt buy it. But that's my personal opinion

Agreed. There's no knowing if the solution to the leak is easy or difficult, so best to walk away and find something else.
