Things to look for when buying second hand S3..

[pjeadie]

Hi All,

I am looking to buy a second hand Audi S3. I have seen one, and was hoping somebody could give me a few typical nasties to look for in this model.

Its a 2001, S3 3 door Quattro.
1781 cc, Petrol, Manual Transmission.
Its done 74,000 miles, which is high, but I wont be holding onto the car for more than 25,000 miles.

Any pointers?

Thanks for your help,
James

The S3 buying guide is always a good place to start.

This has only just been covered a couple of days ago. The same question is getting a little tedious

Must be the crap weather we have been having. Everyone now wants a Quattro with 200BHP.
