Yeah, it's a fair price, it looks rather intact and it's only done 30000 miles.
Why do Brits call it Vauxhall, when it's Opel in German?

Germany probably makes the best cars in the world, Opel are probably the worst ones... They're cheap though.

Yup, I agree, German cars are awesome.... Ahhhh Mercedes-Benz. :statisfie

Audi and BMW are even better. And there's Porsche and several smaller companies.

[Cabdullahi]

German cars are not the best nowadays its all about Japanese cars no1 can beat them for their super cars with cheap spare parts

Japanese cars may be technically superior, German cars, and certain American and British ones, on the other hand are the most prestigious, good-looking, shabby etc.

Wrong again, As much as like Germany, I would never wanna be German... the older generation is weird and often xenophobic, the younger generation is better thiugh.

Before I say the price i want you to estimate its value. Jazaakun Allah khairun for your help :)

lol -why u say tht

[Tania]

Ask a mechanic to check up the car - to be sure doesn't have hidden faults. Ask the police about the price to register the car.

[Whatsthepoint]

lol -why u say tht

I'm not saying anything...
But I wouldn't be surprised if CSI guys found blue markings on the back seat...

[Güven]

Thats A nice Car Broo And The Price İs Nice Too :D
İ am Going To Take my Driving lessons İn October İnshAllah:statisfie

[qassy!]

Whats what HPI does, its HPI cleared so it wouldnt be nothing like that :)

[aadil77]

I got Audi S3, let me get some pictures hold on....

bruv your family must be rich to get you an s3 like that, they cost around £20k :D, unless its an a3 with an s3 body kit, how much was yours?

mashallah nice car:thumbs_up, but don't like the front wheel drive tho

[aadil77]

bro ronar: if you're buying from ebay make sure you get every detail out of them, but thats some good specs for tha price, there could be some faults so be careful:thumbs_up

I've got my mums 2001 yaris and I still need to pass, passed by theory tho :D

i paid for it myself actually, i work my socks of buying it, i was working nights, day shift had 2 jobs. Sales job and I was working in some warehouse where i was doing night shifts. Im only doing part time now, it did cost alot indeed. You work out the price it had the following:


full service history from main dealers, (service was by main dealers ONLY)
1 year mot
log book
and
hpi cleared
and only did 25.000 miles
is in metallic white
factory modified, so the suspension was lowered, tints on all windows only 70%, and front was 40% lightly tinted this was all factory modified.

think of how much it cost, and now think of the insurance......my dad paid for the insurance (wish he paid for the car)

once i brought it after a month i done the following

sound system fitted, sub woofer mounted into the car, so the sub is not left in the boot if you know what i mean?

had blue neon lights fitted underneath, (its illegal 2 use, but it looks so good in the night when your on the motorway driving at 80)

and just maintaining it cost alot, the service from main dealers cost me £495 every year, and mot i dunno how much that is but this year its going 2 cost hell of alotttttttttt - ONCE somthing went wrong with my car, and I took it 2 the local mechanic and he was so confussed, he didnt know how 2 open the parts or anything......so i left it i was like dont touch my car mate

went 2 dealers, they plugged there computer into it and instantally they knew what was wrong :), with these new cars you cant do cowboy jobs anymore

but i love my car, thats why i have rules. People dont appreciate, i spent alot of time and money on my car. then when they take the mik out of it, it gets me hacked off :(

your in love with ur car, how charming. but i guess when uve paid for something, u guard it like gold, bit like my laptop lol. :D, laptop rules;

a) ask permission before use/installing games etc..
b) DO NOT eat or drink whilst using it!!! (they never listen to that one!)
c) DO NOT hold it and jump from great heights
d) and the typical paki thing....do not remove the plastic cover :D haha.

bit like my brother he was so desperate to get his first car, even tho he worked to pay for it, my dad had to chip in for it, plus insurance.actually they DID pay the insurance, and my brother payed um back, bit by bit.

[assy]

hello fellow freinds. Brother qassy! i would like to say you have a very nice car, marshallah. I have Audi A3 my self, not good as your Audi S3, but it gets me and my wife around town.

Don't know brother, how much? must have cost a bomb though. Its a massive achievment if you worked for it:thumbs_up, and not got it for free like some rich kids. So were you at college or uni whilst workin, If you were - I wouldn't have bin able to handle that. And how long did it take to save up for it, must have been a relief when you finally got it.

I'll be payin for insurance on my yaris, I hope my job at mac d's will be enough!
I'm alright with a car with decent fuel economy for now, because i'll mostly probably be travelling to uni. Insh'Allah if I get the chance I'd like to get a bugatti or a koeniggsegg or somethin like that, doubt it:rollseyes :D

[Woodrow]

A young man's first car is a very memorable event. I can remember my first car, I don't have any pics of it but I found a pic of the same year and model on line.

Well it was not exactly a car, I was only 14 at the time and too young for a driver's license. But, at the time 14 was the age limit to operate this (as a student):

A 1944 Piper cub. Original new price was $1325, I bought it in 1954 for $100 paid $10 down and $5 a month for the next 18 months, made my first solo flight in it shortly after I turned 16. lots of memories

Later that year (1956) I did get my first car. (again had to find a pic online)

a 1927 model T ford. I paid either $50 or $75 for it. They were very low cost popular cars for teenagers back then. today if you could find one,it would cost quite a bit more. Very few of them survived us teens back then.

Now back to the orignal post. You got a fantastic bargain, It is hard to even find a used bicycle for that price.

[Tania]

I found too its a good bargain :) and the previous owners didn't damaged the car-it seems after the technical report.

Bro Woodrow the T Ford car its a collection car. Tody you could sale it for a fortune :)

mashallah nice car:thumbs_up, but don't like the front wheel drive tho

:sl:

All audi 's' cars are 4 WHEEL DRIVE, they're all quattro...Well the last proper quattro systems were in the s2's, rs2's and maybe the old rs4..Ever since then they've used the haldex system which uses all 4 wheel to get off the line and then its 2 wheel drive...or something like that lol...but the quattros of the old skool like the proper UR quattro they were full time 4 wheel drive, OOOHH YEEAAS!
