As per Today I etc, here's PYXi, a 2002 built, 2003 registered FSi.
Owners: lots and lots. I'm number eleven. Mileage: 111,000: not bad. History: yes, full, Audi until 80K or so, local garages thereafter. Max interval 10K miles. Issues: ooh yes, like you wouldn't believe (see above owner count).
Why buy? It was cheap (£250), local (under 1/2 mile) and actually is much straighter than the advert pics would have suggested.
What's wrong with it?
Glove-box handle on floor.
Alternator light up.
Power steering not working.
Virtually seized gearshift.
Clonking from rear.
Rattling from front.
Caked in cack underneath.
Rear bump stops: no.
MOT only by virtue of CV19 extension.
ABS warning up.
Low pad warning up.
EML up (of course it is, it's an FSi).
Filthy in, out, underneath and in the 'bay.
Timing belt probably due.
Wrong anti-freeze.
Runs badly.
Two terrible tyres.
Surely there must be some good news?
Two good tyres.
It's silver (that's good in my book: iconic I like to think).
AC works well.
It starts.
It stops.
Recent brakes all round.
That full service history.
Very straight and I think it'll clean up well.
Engine looks like new down the filler caps.
No mechanical maladies other than running issues and engine sounds particularly sweet.
Screen isn't all scratched up.
Two keys, both working.
Full hand-pack, tool-kit etc.
Even the fuse cover is attached.
Here're a couple of pics from the ad:
