When it came to parting with my Audi A3 2.0T 2007 DSG S-Line 3 door.. With 60k miles...

BMW could offer no more than £5600 as it went to trade. No test drive or check. Keys, history and manuals, MOTS required and that was it. The dealer said it wasn't their problem when it came to faults so I kept quiet.

If I sold private then I knew I would not have a clear conscience because it had more than 5000 of work to be done. Mechatronic shot, a/c compressor shot, turbo on last legs... Required new Pistons to name but a few.

The we buy any car quote? £2600. I told them about the extras the car had. Excellent body work, paint, no road rash or chips, wheels mint... Loved and looked after example but they couldn't offer me more. It was the book price according to them and I tried to get them to reconsider but it was a no go!

May be I'd get a better figure on my BMW... I will have to try for a laugh.
