I think I saw you in an ice cream parlour
Drinking milk shakes, cold and long
Smiling and waving and looking so fine

    Asking for my brother - any particular reason
    * too much money or
    * too little car
    * just trouble waiting to happen

    PS Quite like Audi's - mines on 200000 miles, so would be nice to know

    Thanks

    Ugh, a 14 year old car that has sat and trawled and gone not very far.

    HOW MUCH!!!! I paid that for a 2004 mondeo over 3 years ago.

    And forget the its anm AUDI so worth a fortune. Its a VW / Skoda / Seat underneath...

    You should be looking at paying half that amount.

    To be honest with that auto box, it has done well to get to 28,000.
    Be happy...;)

    Unless it's a garaged from new minter, don't even think about it. That's the smallest engine coupled to an auto in what was seen as a sporty car. Get a same age, better in every aspect, Golf for half the money.
  • Way too much,wouldn't touch with a barge pole, its a very old car and the very low mileage will have done more harm than good. I have just bought a one owner Vauxhall meriva 1.4 with 102k full service history 2006 reg for £1550,came with full m.o.t and had just been fully serviced and 4 newish tyres. Buy off gumtree or admag and buy privately. A higher mileage newer car with full history would be a better bet.
  • With a £2k budget - polo or fiesta imo

    Max i'de pay would be £500. 2000 miles per year ? Either it's been sat doing nothing most of it's life and will have all sorts of issues due to this, or it could well have been clocked and really have 200k on the clock.

    Either way I wouldn't want it as it's likely to have problems.
