Deposit put on an A4

[Deadlysub]

Hi, first post.

I have just put a deposit on this.

https://usedcars.audi.co.uk/usedcar...W5k|1027,2|1051,25000|1100,162/l|12,1,t_geo,U

Car is lovely and a great spec with no damage.

I have got the history in front of me and I have a few queries, which hopefully you guys will be able to help me with.

New sale event 9/03/16 and for the first three years, it did very little mileage, there were a few warranty claims and a few recalls.
Then things get a bit strange:

Used car MPC 31/01/19 10,949 miles
Used sale 31/01/19
Disowned 17/09/2019 What does this mean?
Repair non warranty 18/09/2019
Used car MPC 20/09/2019 12,669 miles
Change of owner 10/10/19
Used sale 11/10/19 12,672 miles

it’s now done 18k miles and according to the history has had two owners and was taken in part ex two weeks ago.

I’m hoping that there isn’t something amiss.

Not sure, but if you buy from a main dealer that should be the safest route when buying a used car. Perhaps you should quiz them about it before taking delivery.
You will also have a cooling off period where you can pull out of the sale I believe in case you're not happy with something etc.

Thanks for the reply. I’m cautious because I’ve had a bad experience with a Jaguar recently.

Nothing to be greatly worried about,

Used car MPC 31/01/19 10,949 miles - Multi Point Check carried out to provide Audi Approved Used Car Warranty
Used sale 31/01/19 - Sold to next owner
Disowned 17/09/2019 What does this mean? Taken into stock by dealer.
Repair non warranty 18/09/2019 - Repair before putting up for sale, could be anything, but not a warranty claim.
Used car MPC 20/09/2019 12,669 miles - MPC again for used warranty
Change of owner 10/10/19 - Registered to new owner
Used sale 11/10/19 12,672 miles - New owner collected, 3 mile discrepancy may be road test for MPC or dealer taking it to fill up.

Dealer should be able to let you know what the non warranty repair was. MPC is 147 multi point check, used warranty is 12 months, 12000 miles (whichever comes sooner) and 12 months roadside recovery. Enjoy!

Thanks guys, really put my mind at rest. The car really is beautiful.

Do you know if heated seats came with the S line?

The first ones didn't as standard because my first 2016 model didn't have them, but they became standard sometime in 2017 I think, certainly have been for a while anyway. Yours is an early 2016 model so it may not have them, although it seems fully loaded in other respects! Nice car.

Based on the pictures, and indeed the spec, doesn’t look like it has heated seats I’m afraid.

 

[Deadlysub]

Thanks for the replies.

Good news, it’s does have heated seats, the switch is on the seat next to the electric seat buttons.

You can check what options the car has from the code sticker in the boot, or within the car's instruction manual wallet and reference them here http://vag-codes.info/vag-option-codes
