Hi all.
I became a member a few weeks ago as i thought i was gunna swap my Audi Coupe for an A2, that never happened but its made me want one even more.
Ive done a fair bit off research but wondered if some kind members could list what i need to look for when i go and look at some.
I dont do many miles so a diesel doesnt make sense but there is one for sale cheap local to me so i wont rule it out.
The 1.6 FSI doesnt do it for me (to complicated engine wise) Im a mechanic so can do my own repairs but feel i wont be able to with this engine.
The 1.4 i think is best for my needs but if you have got any argument for the others then im listening.
My wish list for the car is.
Climate control (did they do simple air-con? like found on VW Golfs etc) i would be happy with that.
By all accounts i dont want a sunroof model (are they that bad? if they are left closed and not used, do they leak?)
Dont really want a sport model as the ride is harsh? and tyres cost alot? insurance is more?
Want remote locking (do they all have it?)
Age isnt important (it can be old as long as it is in good condition)
3 seats in the rear (is that really rare?)
£2-3000 budget
Any info would be greatly appriciated or if you know of any cars for sale.
