Default Im Looking into buying a used Audi A3 and was wondering if its worth it

i have my mind set on buying a used 2007 audi A3. I have a question and i hope somebody can answer it. I found a 2007 A3 for $14,000.00 but it has 77k miles on it. is it worth it for me to buy it with that much miles?

that's right around when the car needs some major service --- find out if the former owner has changed the timing belt, camshaft, fuel pump, and has done a carbon cleaning --- that right there is at least $3000 worth of repairs

I ve got my car from audi salvage, its the same as yours 07 audi A3, I bought it about 2 years ago but it had a salvage title (had an accident front end damage) So I can't say for sure, but I think it is a normal price and its worth it. But I agree with the comments above - yo ushould find out more information form the owner so that you could estimate how much it is really worth.

Thanks for the replys. I ended up purchasing a BMW. I missed out on red sline a3. It got sold by the time I decided to buy it. My gf has a 2009 gti. I believe it has the same motor so I know how fun it is to drive. Kinda wish a got a a3 jus because its not common to see one on the road and the car looks badass

What is the difference between an Audi s3 and a Audi a3 sline shape?
I am looking to buy an Audi but unfortunately can't get insured on an s3, I like the shape of the s3 so have been told to look at the Audi a3 slines. Is there a difference in these two shapes?

I don't think there is a difference in the shape, the S Line package includes many of the options that the 3.2 has with regards to looks, rear spoiler, lower body at front and sides etc. I don't know your location but I have mine posted for sale, low miles 2007 A3 with S line and cold weather package....

AUDI A3, 2007, LOW miles, MINT | Morgantown | eBay Classifieds (Kijiji) | 26227785

Feel free to msg me with any questions.

Thanks,
Jon
