Hi,

I'm in the process of upgrading from my a3 2006 tdi dsg, we are looking at either a 2011 a3 sportback sport auto 73k or a 2009 59 a3 tdi black edition Sline 95k,   Both are auto and in white, the 11 plate has the start/stop,cheaper tax band, lower mileage and is 170bhp,    59 platehas more miles, older, higher tax band, only 140bhp but has the S line and  BE options and looks very nice.

Its for the Mrs and ill use at weekends, sensible women women the 11 plate..but the older one takes it for me

 

Any thoughts please????

 

Thank you

HI Lee...welcome to the Forum

If it was me I would go for the 2011 A3 as lower miles, newer, better technology, etc....assuming its for the same money as the 2009 A3?

Keep us updated on how the decision goes

Thank you for the reply Trevor.

I think that's what we have decided but the sline looks so much better.  They are both too far away to drive and compare so it's tough.

How about the valuations ? Will they be worth the same in say 3 years time. Who know....

Difficult one that...I wouldn't like to say how they will fair over time...sorry!
