Hi!
Thought I'd quickly introduce myself, and our A2.
My name is Ken and we picked up our first A2 about two weeks ago. It's a 2001 1.4TDI in Silver. It had 102k miles on the clock when we picked it up and had been a one owner car for pretty much it's entire life (6 months as a demonstrator for Cardiff Audi, but then sold to its one other owner).
We were looking for a small, efficient car primarily for my wife to drive during the day. After looking at the usual suspects, and some slightly more unusual ones (Fiat Panda 100hp anyone?) we were being drawn to A2s. We looked at a couple reasonably local to us, and although we liked the concept, the cars themselves were iffy. So we ended up going a bit further afield to look at the one we have eventually bought.
It is booked in for a service this month, and the CV joints and boots (MoT advisories) are being done at the same time.
Thus far we're really pleased with our choice. It's fun to drive, frugal (68.5 mpg actual) and interesting.
I will have questions about bits and pieces I'm sure (first one to check stereo fitting coming up!) so looking forward to tapping in to the A2OC hivemind...
