Overview

I have what is considered a very understated car. A wolf in sheep’s clothing that with the look of the back numbers and letters “3.2 Quattro” is the only thing people will see when they go “what is in that?”
This A3 3.2 vr6 Quattro is a lovely piece of kit. Not your boy racer look, but a family car with pure aggression under the bonnet.
Coupled with the Quattro four wheel drive system, the car sticks to the roads when pushed that little bit harder.
Yes it is in the higher tax bracket, but the smile on your face is worth it.
The car has had a good life, last owner being a bit of an older gent who was a bit of a petrolhead who owned the car for 10 years prior to me obtaining the car. With that said he spent money when needed and kept the car needed for nothing. He had a few scrapes on the bumpers but if you look at the interior, it says it all. I have taken an array of pictures to show as much as I can for the car to show any scrapes etc.
He parted with the car to get a car easier for him to get in and out of.
In all its a decent car with the advantage of fun on the press of your right foot or just a nice family cruiser.
