    A5 Telephone Volume Control

    The volume wheel on the steering wheel should increase the volume. Its a trip to the dealer if its not working I'm afraid.

    First audi quote quote is it good/bad ?

    What percentage of the total list price of the car are you paying? You should be looking to get between 11 and 13% off an A3 at the moment.

    NAVI QUESTION!! IN CAPITALS TO GET ATTENTION!!! I LOVE THE ATTENTION!!! EXCLAMATION!!

    I had a non-original DVD in my old A3 and it frequently displayed the message you get. I eventually worked out that it was heat related and got some blank DVDs of a better quality and it was fine. Does yours work for a while and then give up?

    Recession

    Things haven't got any where near the bottom yet. Some big, familiar names are going to go to the wall. I'm thinking Debenhams, Taylor Wimpey, Barratts, Currys (DSG Group), MFI are all looking pretty bleak right now. I work in vehicle finance and the motor trade is on its knees. Sytners made...

    Boring Finance Question...

    Cracking deal in the current climate!! Dealer will have had to pay Audi finance a subsidy for you to get that rate. Good negotiation fella :salute:

    Boring Finance Question...

    Good way to put it!! Dealers are feckers for quoting flat rates. Completely against the law and a bug bear of mine with the car dealers we use as when customers see the agreement they often query "I was quoted x% and now it says x%" Mjuch better to explain the relationship between the two or...

    Boring Finance Question...

    Finance agreements are not transferrable between cars unfortunately. It would mean paying off your existing one and taking out a new one on the new car, at presumably a higher rate than your existing one :(

    Buying an A3 using a PCP

    Not sure on a PCP but you can claim 50% of the VAT on CH if the agreement is in the company name.

    I've just checked with HPI and the car is clear, as it should be. Stolen marker has been reomoved and nothing else untoward. Copy of report sent to Kam :salute:

    Buying an A3 using a PCP

    The best way to compare finance agreements is to look at the Total Amount Repayable (TAR) figure. A PCP won't look anywhere near as attractive once you do this!!

    Car Stolen/ Recovered. Help!

    Then they don't know what they are on about. Call centre staff nonsense. PM me your reg no and I will HPI it in a couple of days (once the Police marker has been removed) and I will send you back what I find. It won't be on the register unless someone has dropped a b0ll0ck.

    Buying an A3 using a PCP

    If the deal has an agreed future value (which it will) then you will be tied to the dealer / brand that have agreed the GFV figure.

    Buying an A3 using a PCP

    PCP finance agreements are the work of the devil. The most expensive method of financing a car and the best way of a dealer ensuring you come back time and time again to be stitched up. Be vary careful about rates quoted on websites and the figures you actually get. There will be a caveat on the...

    Car Stolen/ Recovered. Help!

    Correct. Its only a Cat D if the insurance company pay out. I work in car finance and this happens to client's cars from time to time. It WILL NOT be recorded at HPI as Stolen Recovered. Loads of people on various forums I go on are being targeted this way right now it seems. :ohmy:

    S5 prices

    As above, you will be able to get 10% off a new one or make a silly offer on a used one. By silly, I mean knock off at least £3k from their asking price. They will say no and that they can't deal at that figure but leave them your number and they WILL call you back. Dealers are completely...

    07 S3 Whats it worth?

    The market has changed dramatically in the last three months. Cars just aren't moving. JohnS3's car books trade in Glass's at £20,500. Nothing is fetching anything like book at the moment. Dealers will be offering £17500-£18k. To use an extreme example, I am trying to get a 2005 55 plate...
