    4.5 months of tax takes the sting out of buying that alright!

    Engine is very reliable old skool diesel

    Out of interest, if you'd get an average 25MPG out of a similar size manual 2l petrol engined car, how much would you get out of that autobox diesel? I believe they are a 5-speed box, so shouldn't be much worse than a manual anyway

    For reference I got a ~28mpg on my old S202 C200 automatic. Was 5 speed auto. Mostly suburban and motorway.

    He's asking strong enough money for it so one would imagine it to be a decent motor.

    Rims off a newer A3, wouldn't be to my taste but they do the job.

    For those who like to spend little on the car relative to motor tax and petrol, the 523i are particularly unsought after due to the 2.5 engine and the 523i thing, this one looks potentially decent, interior is spartan enough though...

    Admittedly they're asking €1350 but for a just NCTd (people wet themselves for that :pac: ) 1.0 with small miles needing a wheel trim it's not too bad, low tax and high mpg for the lucky buyer :D

    could be the clock not set on the camera, hence the time stamp ;)

    That made me think of a 'good idea'.

    Next time you buy a car, set the camera 3 years ahead, take a load of tasteful pics, and save them for when the time comes to sell...

    Not your ornery onager

    I think this has been up there at least once already. I may be wrong but it seems very familiar to me (I had been looking at S60s a month or two ago).

    No mention of Service History and that era of Audi goes to pieces if not maintained (as I learned to my own expense a few years back!)

    Yup. Just had a closer look, on closer inspection of the NCT cert, I think it says TAXI, just above Toyota.

    O well.!. It's still boring & Bulletproof..!
