I have an 07 Audi A3 with about 80k miles and runs beautifully! Make sure to get an Oil catch can for the car and keep up with maintenance

I have a 2008 A3... love the car.Very tight handling, acceleration is also very impressive. I had serious transmission issues (DGS) and a faulty heater fan... other than that it's been very good. Good luck, the A3 is a really great car, you will love it.
