Audi, White, A3 Convertible, 2008. Reg: YG58VWB Manual, Diesel, Mileage: 151,600 Very good body condition Burgundy coloured heated leather seats. Front and rear electrical windows Central locking. Alloy wheels Number of former keepers: 5 Beautiful, clean car. Very clean engine. Immaculate interior. Partial service history record available. The car was also serviced by my local 5-Star rated garage (Gauden Motors, 193c Auckland Hill, London, SE27 9PD) immediately prior to it ''going into hibernation'' i.e. SORN. IMPORTANT - Please note two KEY points BEFORE you respond: SORN - The car is currently declared off-road (SORN). It belonged to my son before he left home about 18 months ago. I have my own car. Thus there is no MOT on it currently. (The only reason I have not put it in for MOT is the hassle - I would need to get temporary insurance, tax it, pay the ULEZ charge etc. But if you present yourself as a KEEN potential buyer, MOT can be arranged locally). PRICE - My asking price above is based on Confused dot com's FREE Online car valuation service. They have quoted the same figure (£1677) in mid July and August. To sum up: The car has a powerful 2 litre engine. The bodywork is excellent. It's a Sports car AND a convertible! With immaculate interior including leather seats. And lastly, as mentioned, it was serviced before putting it off-road (SORN). Any further questions? Please email or call. No recorded messages please.
