Picking up 3.0tdi 272 bhp BE saloon next week

[paultaylor]

Hi to all, I’ve only ever been on the A3 8p section for my wife’s A3 which she will be keeping as still a great car.

Decided to treat myself to a late 2014 facelift 3.0tdi 272 black edition saloon

Would anyone have any buying advice for this model?

Many thanks

With out pictures the purchase never took place

I drove it last Friday and it’s fantastic. Mint too apart from one curbed alloy

It has a full Audi history and is still under extended warranty.

I’m thrilled with it and the effortless pace it has.

I’d like to change to golf ball shape s tronic gear knob.

On my wife’s A3 8p I had to use a heat gun to twist the lever orientation but on the facelift C7 the button is at the front does anyone know if it’s just a straight swap?

Also the car is mint but there are some minor scratches in the piano black surrounding the gear lever, can this part be replaced?

Thanks
