Okay, I don't normally like these threads, but looking in the classifieds the prices of S3's seem all over the place...

Now i'm not interested in trade offers, just wondering what people think I should put it up as a private sale?


its a 2002 (225bhp) with 80k on the clock - 1 previous owner, a very full service history and a few months warranty remaining.

Ming blue (i think - that dark inky blue), nappa leather interior (recaro sports seats), bose system.

All in all, reasonable condition - me being picky as i am it probably would benifit from a paintwork correction thing, though no dents, just a couple of light scratches. Good tyres all round etc..


I realise its high miles, but it had a major service just before xmas - so 20-odd K before the next one - garaged most nights, only used on motorways (same for previous owner who was friends with the garage i bought it off - where my mate works so I knew the history of the car).

Cheers Rob,

I had planned to have it done around March time (once the spreaders had finished), but since i'm planning on selling the car sooner I may not be able to book it in in time, so figured i'd be honest about it - no sense in wasting anyones time...

Though to be honest, i wonder how much of it is me being pedantic, and if anyone would actually notice! smile
