Hi,

I'm new here and needing some advise on purchasing a used 2006:

AUDI A3 SPORTBACK SPECIAL EDITIONS
2.0 T FSI S LINE SPECIAL EDITION 5DR DSG AUTOMATIC

The car has full service history with 132k on the clock. The dealer is willing to let it go for 2.7k. 

Firstly is it worth it and secondly would the mileage be a concern?

Condition is more important than mileage, and only you can decide whether the cars condition is worth the cost. It is fair to assume some money needs to be spent on the car to either make it roadworthy or to put in an acceptable cosmetic condition so you need to factor that into your budget.

Hello Khan,

As Cliff says, and bear in mind that the mileage is average for the year (based on a now outdated? 12K miles/a). 

Condition is king, and no doubt we have all seen low mileage examples of all marques which have certainly not been well card for. 

Price?? You will need to compare with others of a similar age - just do some online checking. Part exchange involved? Amount of warranty  offered etc. etc. Service history ? Major work such as Cambelt changes carried out to schedule? How long the last registered keeper has owned it?  All cost influencing.

It should also be appreciated that this 'Special Edition' is infact the most basic model available. Clever marketing, since there isn't anything special about it! 

Also this is a diesel, and we all know what bad press (unjustified?) these are getting these days. 

Hope some of this helps,

Kind regards,

Gareth.
