Looking at the black one with rotors? Wasn't repaired properly when u see it in person you'll notice, although for 9k can't complain lol
Why would you spend £8k on a Cat, when you could just get an extra £3k and buy a non cat?
Id imagine the main reason is you have 8k to spend, not 11k.
I done exactly that. I had 8k, I wanted an S3. boom!
it looks like an S3, drives like an S3 does everything an S3 should do. So cant really complain. Sure there are some niggles and things that need tidied up but reasonably minor and Im more content knowing I have a 60k car vs a 90/100k car. A higher mile car will have its problems too, maybe needs a clutch or suspension is on its way out.
Its very much swings and roundabouts really but I wanted nav/xenons/heated seats etc they are all expensive to retrofit so good to have them.
i like badgers point. nearly new cars not even involved in accident can suffer problems for example engine/turbo problems and be repaired and sold on to no knowledge of the buyer, and depends on the job and pot luck sometimes the problems can be repaired or end up reoccurring later on. possibly just as equivalent to risk of a cat car but without the awareness?
as with any used car, test-drive the life out of it, any genuine seller will allow it, especially if you offer to put fuel in, proves you're seriously interested too
