No problem thanks Gareth, I thought that’s what you meant. I’ve seen an A1 of interest at a dealer but was hoping to negotiate…

Thanks very much Gareth for your considered reply. Accept the options & so has sort of confirmed our thoughts. Suspect a decent A1 & eBay are good options. Cheers 

Hi,

New to this site sorry.

We have a T reg A3 1.8 petrol Auto in pretty good nick but still needs work. My wife would like to update to A1 (1.4) around 2014-5 also auto. We've seen a few on the web and happy to buy but just curious how to handle the older A3. We've had it for over 15 years and so has been a great car. I have Q3 also 2014-5 so we'd like similar cars. 

Just curious as to how best to handle purchase & apparently older A3 is really only good for parts but when you consider the individual bits it's worth a lot in parts to those who need them...e.g. rims & tyres worth more than has been offered by "We buy any car"...because they don't.

Any enthusiasts happy to discuss !? :)
