Was just looking at this A3 for sale on eBay but the photos don't look right. What do you guys think.

Can't see the problem other than it saying it's had light damage before and registered. I presuming it was maybe more than just light but other than that. Obviously you'd want to give the repair a good look over. Full service history and only 33k miles, low if it's got the documentation to back it up. Would be cheap for someone young to insure if you like the look of it.
See if you can find out about previous owners. Have a look and a drive and as Andy says check out the repair.
33,000 miles of peddle to the metal.....
What's dodgy about that, catD means insurance write off repaired. Probably done a cheap repair and used preface lift 8p2 parts to keep costs down
Doesn't say it's a Cat d, I would ask which category it is on and go and check out the repairs and phone DVLA to see if it has been VIC'd . The price is about right for a Cat'd, If you like haggle hard.
The fact it says "TECHNIK 1.6" should put anyone off.
I had the same engine in my last A3 and it was dreadful. Couldn't wait to get rid of it. A wheelchair had more grunt than it
If you are really interested in it then make sure you get a full check done prior to purchase, RAC or something similar.
That was another thing I was unsure on. Didn't Audi stop making the 1.6 and replace it with the 1.4 TFSI on the facelift A3's?
Firsty picture the car looks quite good, the rest look rubbish, partly due to the SE ride height. So either he has lowered it or taken stuff off it. But that doesn't explain the appearance of silver mirrors on the SE ride height photos. Some people just don't know how to present something!
If you think its dodgy use your gut instinct and walk away
Nope when I was ordering mine they still had the 1.4tfsi and the 1.6
You being serious?? Looking at that did give me a good laugh tho!
I wouldn't drive that if someone payed me to. Cant believe someone was actually driving around in it thinking it looked good.
