Hi,
I have been lurking on here for a while now, I currently own a MK5 golf TDI, and as a result I don't really come on here that much. I have owned my golf for a couple of years now but have always fancied a S3, just feel I have got to get it out of my system lol!! I have been looking for a while, but I am still trying to get my head around the huge variation in prices and cars that are described as 'mint' when they are clearly not!!!!
I've found a car, but just wondered peoples thoughts were?? It's at Listers in Coventry (Audi main dealer), its a 2001/51 S3, kingfisher blue with half leather, blue alcantara, 3 owners, 64k miles and its up at £9,999!!!!!
Its been up for a while and I have always discarded it because it seemed so overpriced, I gave the dealer a quick ring and had a chat, the previous owner px'ed it against a new S3 and drove a pretty hard deal on his p/x price according to the dealer, personally I think it's just the dealers excuse for the high price, he even admitted it wasn't the easiest colour combination to sell, but I quite like it!!
So what do you think its worth?? I have had a quick look on a few car valuation sites and they all seem to be saying about £7000-£7500!! I have got a feeling I might be wasting my time going to have a look and a chat, but I guess you never know!!
Many thanks in advance,
Chris
