In two minds of what to do!

Currently have the following spec...

A3 1.6TDI SB Sport Scuba Blue
Comfort Pack

Looking at trading it in for the following....

A3 1.6TDI SB S Line Scuba Blue
  • Hill hold assist
  • LED headlights
  • B&O Sound system
  • Tech pack with Audi Connect
  • Tyre pressure monitoring
  • Interior Light pack
  • Front/rear sensors and Park Assist
Whats everyones thoughts? Dealer has offered fair deal considering I'm under a 3 year plan.

Looked at retrofitting some options but very pricey and not always done as well as a factory fit.
 
Agree with above, go for it if the deals good!

Would certainly add Comfort Pack. And if one can afford to why not.....
 
If you're looking to buy a stock car then its a nice spec. However if It was me and I was ordering a new car then I would cut a few options (like LED lights) to get the 184 engine. The driving pleasure will increase enormously.

What sort of deal have they offered?

Not a lot but 5% off the price which is good, plus surprisingly getting a fair bit back for the car I have had for 4 months!
 
If you looked at retrofitting options, does that mean that the order has already been placed? eg, is it a cancelled order, or used car?

5% is OK, but you'd expect that anyway - I got more than that when placing my order originally. You could try pushing for more.
 
Voice of reason - NO
Same engine, won't get you anywhere quicker.

All this is going to do is -
1/ Cost lots of money to change the car.
2/ Costs lots of money on extras you don't really need.
Its just part of being a member of a forum where everyone's adding extras to say look at my spec, don't feed off the hype........

Unless your going to say you've had the car three years?
