Hi everyone, I needed an fuel efficient car to do 30-40k a year in and came back from a dealers yesterday with an 02 SE Tdi, I was astounded by the test drive which was 5 up with a burly sales guy + me and the SO + 2 kids, having been driving an Passat S 130 estate :eek: for the last year the A2 really felt good to drive and fairly quick. Once I realised the spec the car had I couldn't say no!!
 
Hi ULP, I'll check the colour and take some photos when I pick it up tomorrow afternoon, the blue leather is a little strange!
I'm hoping as it was registered in Aug 02 that it has the 42litre tank as that will make a lot of difference to the amount of time I spend filling it up!
I guess the cruise is the same as the Sharan and Golf I've had fitted previously, change the stalk, plug it in, run a wire from the fuses to the ECU and tell the car it's there, the Sharan cost me £250 to have it fitted, the Golf £150 as the extra wire is already there. I think I'll get someone to do it for me as the SO objects to me dismantling things! You should have seen her face when I stripped the Wrangler suspension down to fit the lift kit!!
 
Our friend Mike - aka Skipton01 - fits cruise controls for fellow A2OC members. See the For Sale section.

I can confirm that your pics are not Crystal Blue - as our car is Crystal Blue and is lighter than that. Is it Ayoka?

You won't be disapointed, I do around 26-30k per year, and mines' still going strong 94k!

Niggle about the electrical switches for the windows, (which is intermittant), had a sump gasket replaced, and a glove box! (as the light stopped working), other than that no real problems...
...A brilliant motor!

I've had it 24 hours now and I love it! Only problem is so does my wife, she's pinched it today whilst I'm at work in my skanky old Passat!
