Hi everybody,
I did it, bought an a2, 2003 , tdi , SIT, double DIN radio, 183000 miles, sketchy service history. first fell in love 2002 but bought a (cheap) e-class instead but now i finally got one.
first impressions:
for a vehicle bought of ebay: looks good, I am impressed by Audi quality.
A hoot to drive, love it
initial problems:
-offset to the right on the steering wheel
-radio doesn't work properly for first 2-4 minutes( battery needs replacing?)
-service flap doesn't open, what is the oil level?
-water in the rim of the space saver spare wheel?????
-medium term: bought leather seats with heating but need to install cables etc.
-long term:cruise control, rear parking sensors
overall I like it certainly got the a2 bug. here are the pics:
btw any advice and local ( lincoln) contacts would be appreciated.
one more: I am dutch and a 3-lingual mech engineer, NL-D-GB , so if you are stuck with dodgy manuals let me know.
