Good bits:
- Recently diagnosed by a reputable garage mechanic and there are -zero- OBD errors or messages. Engine, gearbox, electronics and sensors are all in good working order.
- DPF readings are 0.54 g of Carbon Build up - basically means it's clean as a whistle.
- Audi Book and Log Book present with 2x keys.
- Serviced yearly and Oil+Filters changed every 6 months using ONLY Castrol Oil and MANN or Mahle Oil Filters.
- Brand New Front and Rear Shock Absorbers and Springs.
- Brand New Rear Rotors and Pads changed June 23, Front Rotors and Pads July 22.
- Brand New Bridgestone Turanza6 fitted June 23 at National Tyres all around on 18'' Speedlines. Tyre Profile 245/40
- Headlights refurbished July 23.
- Comes with additional Eibach Lowering springs.
- Black Leather interior in good condition
- Fitted Oil Dipstick but also has Electronic Oil Level Sensor.

Bad bits:
- high mileage, so will have age related marks. No dents or previous accidents. Car makes no unwanted noises, all suspension components are either brand new (as above) or in good working order.
- Passenger Mirror cannot be electronically adjusted, but can be moved Manually. These mirrors are massive (also heated) and once positioned, have never bothered me.
- Alloy wheels are not in a top drawer condition, could do with a refurb if you're fussed about it.

I have owned this car for the last 50k miles and in 3 years of ownership I only had to change one parking sensor. This car has been and still is my work horse, currently doing 50 mile commute to work. Drove this baby to Spain twice and Italy once covering 3000+ miles effortlessly.
Although a high mileage engine, if the same level of maintenance is maintained, I believe this car can go another 100k with zero issues.
This vehicle is in need of absolutely nothing and will never let you down. Went on holiday for two weeks last summer and when came back, it started first time with no issues. Airport car choice of the family, has never let us down.

Only interested in swapping this for an Fiesta ST180. Used to own one before this, and decided I want my hothatch back. Not in a rush to swap or sell as reliability is top of my list. Reluctant, but feel it's time for a change. Not fussed about slightly damaged STs, stolen or recovered, as long as it's a decent working order. Car located in East Anglia, Norwich.
