Hi All
It's been a while since I was one here but I'm now getting the A2 itch again and have started looking for one.
I want a FSi as I've owned only diesels for the last 5 years and fancy a nippy petrol, also I no longer do any mileage at all these days.
Obviously I'm looking for the best spec lowest mileage, newest one I can find (isn't everyone) and I have found this one on Autotrader. My budget is £2500 but I could stretch for teh right car.

It has been on now for a couple of months and I went to see it on Saturday.
The condition isn't bad but its by no means mint.
I absolutely love the colour combo and the interior and the car really appeals to me.
BUT It seems to expensive considering the following
There are newer, less mileage FSIs cheaper
I could get a TDi for the same price and considering the unreliability of the FSi should I?
The Opensky is broken, clicking noise from motor area.
There is a slight noise when engine running, sounds like a belt type noise.
Its on a 52 plate
The forecourt price is £3500 and the dealer won't budge from 3K even though he has had it a while and wants shut of it (so he says).
When I viewed the car there was mould on one of the rear seatbelts suggesting damp, possibly the opensky is not shut properly. Its also give you an idea how half arsed the dealer is about selling it.
So I just wanted to know your thoughts.
Cheers
