Hey guys,
Just joined the forums. I am in the early stages of looking for an a3 as I have 4ish months of saving to do so hoping to buy one in jan/feb. Due to crashing my previous car ( not my fault I swear) my insurance is pretty high so I can only afford to insure a 1.6 untill I can build up a few years no claims. I am going to be saving for the insurance and financing the car from a garage and I am looking for around a 2005-2008 maybe with a nice amount of miles on the clock.
I would really like to do the sline bumper conversion that I have been reading about on Ads thread but am a complete novice when it comes to audi's. First question is are the shapes of the 1.6's 1.9's 2.0 etc all the same? what I mean is will an sline bumper from say a 2.0 sline go on a 1.6 a3? Sorry if that a stupid question lol!
Second question would be what would you reccomend to get as in like fsi se sport all that. I dont think i'd be able insure a 1.6 sline/sport for less than 3 grand so would have to be something other than sline and maybe sport.
Third question is what is fsi? and what is it equivelant to in terms of what the insurance would be if you assume that sline is more to insure as sport and sport more than se and se more than just plain standard ( just a guess)
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to answer these questions even though they may seem stupid to some, ok all, of you.
Cheers
