From what I've heard, people (including a poster here) don't like them. The poster here bought an auto and got sick of it and sold it only a few weeks later. That's the reason for so many auto's being for sale compared to manuals.

Mine was the only manual for sale at the time I bought it in 2012 and I've only seen two others pop up since then.

Was in an auto one before, it was awesome but there's something missing.
It's a coupe, 2 door sports car. It's a drivers car and needs a manual

Have the little a3 over 2 years now, still flying along never misses a beat.

I dunno why the bonnet looks different than the wing here it's perfect in the metal!

Many many flies met their maker on the bumper.

RyanMGF · 11-06-2015 12:22AM

Handsome A3.

Is it standard or remapped? The aul 1.8Ts like their remaps.

tossy · 11-06-2015 07:59AM

She's looking well Shaunie.

MetzgerMeister · 11-06-2015 09:33AM

Lovely car Shaunie!

The bonnet looks different because the sun is shining directly on it and not on the wing

ShaunieVW · 11-06-2015 09:34AM

Thanks guys!

The 1.8T is a great engine alright, this is my third one ( golf GTI and S3 before) It's still standard, only "mod" is 312mm brakes off a vRS, I've being concentrating maintaining it as best I can up until now and it's pretty much perfect mechanically, I think the DV is on its way out and I'll be doing the timing belt this summer then I'll go from there.

Shame there's no dipstick, quite smart under the lid.

GvidoR · 11-06-2015 01:52PM

It's one of those cars where you can see the oil level only on the dash?

Yeah a quick check tells you oil okay or add x amount. Or the secret menu measures accurately in litres and mils.

Jaysus I wouldn't be trusting a computer to tell me that!
Why not have both, old fashioned dipstick and computer level?

Sorry about the greyish pic's

Could prob have done with a wash, also the sun did a disappearing trick again,

Dia1988 · 12-06-2015 04:13PM

My car for the weekend.
it's a 1.4 100bhp which is fine around town but is in need of a turbo especially on the motorway to make this a the fun drive it deserves to be!

Opinions?

Alloys are unusual, are they oem or after market?

The wheels are original.

You might want to take another look at the title of this thread though.

The colour is "pump up the blue" and the alloys are upgrades called Boomerang from Opel.

It has stop start technology and gear shift indicator so that keeps it fairly economical if driven easy.about 4.5 to 6.5/100km

But then again it would have more of a fun factor with a turbo.
The rear seats are only good for people with no legs, but this said Im 5"11 and there's plenty of room in driver and passenger seats.

Seemingly there is a 1.0 Turbo 115bhp coming on the market in the Adam soon.

Sorry Gvidor, i'll ban myself for 24 hours lol..

Toyotafanboi · 12-06-2015 05:23PM

i would have thought that 100bhp would be more than enough to get a little car like that around.

i think they are cool, a clever idea on Opels part.

i genuinely wonder (not in a bad way, necessarily) why anybody who wants a fun looking, customizable, 2 seater city car buys one of these over a Fiat 500 which starts out @ €2k less. I can see them being every bit as unreliable as people would expect the Fiat to be and to depreciate pretty badly too. in my opinion there is a very "Ford Ka Mk1" vibe to them, visually.

I feel like i'm being very critical. I like them, but i wouldn't buy one, personally.

wotzgoingon · 12-06-2015 11:08PM

I like the scooby but I prefer them with a wing. Looks kinda funny without one.
