Service History?

Hi all,

As some of you maybe aware, ive been looking for a straight clean S3 for a while now, and have been let down by 3 sellers in a row!! Bad luck or what, either way i have managed to find the following"

2001 "51" Black S3
Black heated leather
Ali mirrors
PDC
Centre Armrest
Bose

The car has done 27k, but has only 1 audi stamp in the book at 10k, and a audi specialist service at 24k, is this something i should even be worried about? The DIS reads it needs a service in 3.5k miles, but this is because the garage didnt re-set it.

I plan to have all services in future done by audi, to keep the record straight, do you think this would put potential buyers off when the time comes for me to sell?

By the way, heres the car im going to be picking up at the weekend

Please do let me know what you guys think, as wales is a long way to go for a lemon!!

Thanks

Id say thats a very fair comment, but as i say, i will be getting the car serviced all the time by Audi in future, so 1 stamp shouldnt really make that big of a difference should it?

Also im getting this car at 13k, you guys consider that to be a decent deal?

Can anyone tell me where i can go to get my DIS reset to show more miles before a service is due?? I just called Audi, and they said they are not allowed to do it? So they want 380 quid for a AVS 1 service for the stamp in a book, and to reset it, a bit steep if you ask me, considering it was just serviced 2k miles ago!

Can any of you help me out on how to reset the miles due before service on the DIS? Im sure its pretty straight forward, but i dont want to shell out for another service as its only just had one 2k miles ago, and my local Indy that i trust would be AMD and they are over 60 miles away!

Thanks for all your input on this
