Still looking for a new car....

Found this Audi A2 SE 1.6 FSI on a 53 plate down at Newbury Audi. 23K on the clock, dealer unsure how many owners it had. He promised to fix the clutch (it judders) and the car also seems to whine when I took it for a test drive... Rob (the car dealer) said that it would be fixed.

Only thing was they offered £2500 trade in against our Ford Ka whilst the Audi's price was £10495. Not what we anticipated having been offered £3500 from 2 other dealers and £3700 from Toyota.

Checked with a mate in the trade who advised cap figure states £4100 for trade on our Ka and £7700 for the Audi. The dealer reckoned the Audi was not subject to the trade book (they really do come up with some excuses).

My offer was this: take our Ford Ka in p/x and we hand over £6K for the Audi. Not sure if they will want to do business. Its worth trying though.

I'd rather we went for the Tdi Sport model over the SE but not many around and seem to cost even more... we're not going to do that many miles so not worth shelling out extra for the diesel premium...
