[vishal]

Hi All,

Im due to collect this in the morning, http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/247485.htm im hoping to drive it away at 12-12.5k, do you think given the spec and mileage this is a fair deal?

Any other comments or suggestions welcomed

Thanks

im hoping to drive it away at 12-12.5k

Seems like your gonna be revving it alot to pull away, does he live on a MASSSSSSIVE hil?

lol on a more serious note 12k would deffo be preferable, it all comes down to what your happy paying

 

[Jampublic]

So have you picked it up?

£12k would be a much better price..... but decent finding one with that low miles!

Ended up being a total lemon, had a front end hit, rear end hit, and a badly sprayed passenger wing, why cant people just be honest!

Anyway, im starting to give up hope to be honest of getting a clean S3, and had another go in a R32, and to be honest, i prefer it, its just smoother, and a better drive with a different kind of power! Heres the deal, please let me know what you guys think

"53" Plate, in satin silver, 5 door
Full black heated konig seats
37,000 miles on the clock, just had full VW service 1 week ago, inc brake fluid
Winter pack, xenons etc..

The car is totally spotless, and the best i could get him down to was 13.5k, what you guys think? Im unable to find a similar mileage example, with 5 doors, and full leather, please do let me know what you think

Thanks

Sounds nice, if its the car you prefer then why not!

I thought you had bought it having read the title.

Go for a R32 if you have had a few S3's. I quite fancy an R32 myself next as I need the extra 2 doors.

Well sorry to hear!

If its the car you want, then do it! Remember an R32 is a nice car too, always fancied one of those too!!

Good call or maybe black, because its faster too!

 

[steve1975l]

Slower to clean tho.

Slower to clean tho.

Harder to keep clean too!

 

[steve1975l]

Looks good when it is clean but doesn't stay that way for long.

Blue is the colour you gotta get!!


This is my old one.... was the best car I've ever owned.

 

[steve1975l]

Nice car Mike why did you get rid?

Pity you didn't just switch the headlights lights on for only part of the exposure. I think you will have to get another R32 and re-take that picture.

 

[Mike H]

I wish. I sold it to get something a bit cheaper to buy and run, hence the 99' S3, but 4 months on, it turns out I'm still spunking a fortune on petrol, so I need a deeesoil now. depressive. Hopefully I'll find a better job, and be able to afford a decent petrol motor and a gaff. :icon_thumright:

I thought the photo would be ok...they were side lights I left on I think if I remember right as I took one with the xenons on and it looked like JEsus was looking down on me.

Dont forget as soon at the mk 6 golf comes out, mk 4 R32 may drop in price a lot
