Im just curiuos on your thoughts on the two cars as they are very similar
which do you prefer? what do they both drive like, my a4 t sport i loved the engine very torquy and good pick up and smooth, all i notice dit its quite loud at crusing at 90 ish bit boomey but may be the milage of engine
i get the impression the a3 is a more upmarket choice from various reviews and chat ive seen, better quality
I like both of them and know the a3 is rarer, from what ive seen its not neccicerely more expensive
what your thoughts pros and conseach car, i was thinking of getting and early r-s reg a3 or a golf s-t reg at some point, ive heard the golf has more little faults than the a3 not built quite as well,
ive heard there more faults with the golf but could be just some cars as the audis are usully very reliable only needing odd ball joints etc until around 135-160k,
also i thought i heard somewhere the a3 is more based on mk3 parts design etc is this true?
what are the view of people who have one did you try both?
i cant afford a average milage one i wanted one with around 90-110k ive seen lots with 130-160k but seam so risky with all th estuff my a4 had done before i bought it
what things have you had go wrong at at what milage sin just curious so i can ask the seller what they have had done and know what to expect in terms of repairs
my audi a4 t sport had done over 160k and had a new head gasket at 153k a new turbo around similar milage between 150-155k i fogot and oir cooler in same milage bracket, all done before i got it came too about £1800 was spent on it, i did both wishbones as they were knocking that was 161k, before i sold it manifold was blowing slightly
they done ball joints etc around 143k, i know all these things go with milage and some even go at 100k ish with suspention, the audi i had seamed relible from history up until 140k i know all cars wear ddifferently with different types of use, I was just curious to see other experinces and what they had done and pros and con of the vw and audi
i have to admit the audi i had the interior was still mint and had no creaks rattles at all and drove very well, apart from the gearbox was worn looks like it was still on original
ive not had a newer vw yet so cant really compare it to one
sorry its all a bit mish mashed
