Hullo there

[markos72]

Hi there,Mark from Cumbernauld here-came across from seat-cupra.net.
I am considering buying an A3 S-LINE 3.2 V6 Quattro(56 plate) which I am going to look at on Monday,and figured this would be the ideal place for hints and tips.
My current chariot is a Mondeo ST TDCI(56 plate)and my car before that was a Seat Leon Cupra 20vt.
Any hints and tips are welcome,and if I get the A3 am looking forward to posting here!!

Have. Look through the classified section, im sure there were a few A3 for sale in there. Enjoy the forum.

Cheers for the welcome peeps!The one I'm going to look at is 56 plate with 57000 miles,just been serviced,and few options on it.Got the feeling that I may be buying it lol.She who must be obeyed is coming too with number 2 child as number 1 son will be at school-tho she doesnt drive its only right that she has some say in it!

 

[Sandra]

​Good luck. If you get the car, post some pics for us too see

 

[markos72]

Oh I definitely will-prob not to everyones taste but its brilliant red,and having 2 kids means sportback is the practical option

 

[markos72]

Well,D-Day. Off to have a look-see and a test drive!

Well,all going well I should be an A3 owner by week's end.Offered me £4500 for my Mondeo ST which is a bit more than I expected.Just waiting to find out if the finance is going through ok.

 

[markos72]

Not a good start-couple of finance companies knocked me back

 

[Sandra]

Im sure you will get there.

Wow Markos. Its a beauty. You did good. Youll be grinning for days. Enjoy .

 

[markos72]

Cheers .Well pleased,but not had chance for a proper drive yet.

 

[markos72]

Initial impressions-love it,but few things missing from the car I had on my Mondy which I miss-electric seats,auto dimming mirror,electric folding mirrors,rain sensing wipers and cruise control.But I can learn to live without them

Glad your liking it. You could also retrofit most of the stuff thats missing through time and when money allows. Lots of Guides over on the A3 section. Have a read at your leisure. Happy
