Picked this up two nights ago for very cheap!

Sold my Civic Coupe for a profit, and snapped this up with alot of change left over!

Goes ok, would benefit from a remap of somesort though!

Very happy with it for the money!

(Photos dont do the paint any justice - it is VERY red in person)

Any plans?

Actually listed correctly and all, just a bad judgement on an "ooh I could sell those" I think :(

Have these gone down a load in price or something? Last time i looked you couldnt find a A3 1.8T for less than 2K, even an old one.

They plummet drastically with mileage, as by 100k they're pretty much ready to fall apart at every seam from what I've heard!

Theyve been going cheap for yonks. I missed out on a 96k 1.8T Sport, T reg in black, S3 rims with T1R's, mega light front wing/headlight damage. Sold for £458 :eek:

Hmmm. None quite as cheap as I want. Or miles away.

This one does look clean however & after the mk3 Golf ownership/swappage saga, I am sceptical about another VAG tbh.
