Is this Audi A3 Sportback worth £9995?
A dealer wants £9995 for a 2005 Audi A3 Sportback 2.0 TDI with two previous owners and 65,000 miles. I need to check out its previous history, but is it worth that amount? It is fitted with 17-inch alloys - will this affect its road performance and fuel economy? I have a 2002 Citroen Picasso with 87,000 miles and a full service main dealer history, except for the last two years when it was serviced by a Citroen-trained mechanic friend. The oil has been changed every six months. In part-exchange I was offered £1500, so I would need to find £8500 on this basis. Is this a good deal?

I wouldn't pay anything like ten grand for a five-year-old A3 TDI, even though there are mugs in the market who probably will.

Quality feel from behind the wheel. More practical and spacious than standard A3. Impressive choice of engines including excellent TFSI turbocharged petrols.
