I've been lurking around the forum for a while before I recently bought my 2002 1.4 FSI SE in Silver. I thought it was about time to introduce myself and my car.
I'm Jeff and have had various VW's over the years but this is my first Audi. It came up a few miles down the road from me and has only had two owners from new (Audi and then shortly after the same owner for nearly 14 years). The car has only done 55k and came with good service history, both keys, full document pack, and loads of bills. It seems to be a really well looked after genuine example. The downside was that it had no documented history of a cambelt change so I had that done last week to be safe.
It's in really good condition but obviously due to it's age there a few little bits and bobs that I will be sorting as and when the parts become available. The alloys have recently been powdercoated so that's one less thing to do but the jobs I'll be tackling shortly are changing the soft touch switches for standard black items, giving it a good valet (inside and out), change the wiper arm to an aero version as it's a bit tatty, new mats, and transferring my plate onto it.
So far I'm really happy with it and can't wait to get cracking to bring it up to scratch. It will be the daily driver as our family has a '15 Transporter Kombi that we pamper and only use in good weather but I like my cars to be clean so the A2 will be getting some love.
Here it is the day we collected it (apologies for the dark Winter photos):
And here is the other love of our lives:
I'll post pictures as I gradually sort the A2 out!
Thanks for looking
