Been offered a 2001 S3 with around 50000 miles on the clock for around 4.5kAU under book price, so priced at 23k as opposed to around 28k. Have been looking at these for a while

Has
1) faulty passenger side electric window - needs manual assistance to get it all the way up
2) needs new tyres
3) has alcantra (sp??) seats which are worn and piled on the drivers side.
4) Is located 3000kms from my house on the other side of the country
5) has no sunroof

On the plus side it had the full belt change on time and full ASH

Worth going for if it passes inspection or sound a bit dodgy brothers?

Cheers

There are currently a total of 15 S3's for sale in the whole of Australia, so not exactly common.

Something about it just doesn't seem right. Bit worn out for the kms.

Checking out an 02 with a MTM chip and a stock 01 over the weekend instead. Only 200 or so kms from home as well.
