Summary for 2005 Audi A3 Diesel Sportback 2.0 TDi SE 5dr
This 2005 Audi A3 Diesel Sportback 2.0 TDi SE 5dr is offered to you directly from Hitachi Capital Vehicle Solutions who are the original owners from new.
This car has covered 49855 miles from new. The full HPI check showed no record of any major accidents, as can be seen (for free) on the clear HPI report. This car also comes with a history, and a valid V5 document. An independent RAC Body and Mechanical inspection has been conducted, for which the full details can be accessed from the left-hand side menu.
The Audi A3 looks stylish and holds a presence on the road. The build quality is what we have come to expect from the Germans. The 2.0 TDI engine pumps out an impressive 140BHP, but is smooth and refined, it will power you from 0-62 in under 10 seconds, yet return a very impressive 49-50 MPG on a combined cycle as the six speed manual gearbox allows fast acceleration, but easy cruising for the motorways.
This car is finished in metallic Liquid Blue and has been kitted out with full Vienna light Grey leather upholstery, turn-by-turn satellite navigation and a Nokia Blue Tooth telephone kit. The SE model comes with electronic stability control (ESP), 16-inch alloy wheels, dual climate control air conditioning, Audi Concert radio CD player remote control central locking with alarm and immobiliser, electric windows, electric folding wing mirrors, automatic headlights and an autodimming rear view mirror. The driver's seat is fully height adjustable, it has a front centre armrest and the steering column is reach and rake adjustable. These cars are also fitted with isofix mountings for child seats.
Audi continue to impress and deliver cars of a very high standard. This particular example comes with full Audi main dealer service history; it has the balance of manufacturer's warranty until mid-September 2008 and we have both remote control keys.
The handover agent looking after this vehicle is Nick.
