Hi all,
What a great little community you have here!
I'm currently driving a Smart Roadster but we're expecting our first offspring so the time has come to get a bigger car.
I've never driven or thoroughly explored an A2 but have always admired their slightly unusual nature (the same reason I joined the Roadie club who, as it happens, are a similarly friendly bunch). I'm hoping it'll be big enough for baby + paraphernalia...?!
My main question is whether a budget of up to £3k is wildly optimistic to get a decent TDi? Not looking for many bells & whistles, just a well maintained example.
I'm reading as much as I can about known issues and options available, but I was also wondering if there are any particularly enthusiastic owners in the Oxford/Thame/Woodstock area who would mind spending a few minutes showing me round their A2 and pointing out the useful stuff to look out for when going for viewings? I'm sure a thank-you pint or reciprocal poke around a Smart Roadster could be arranged...
Looking forward to being part of the club!
Tom
