I am looking to buy a 2003 a4 3.0L quattro from Pfaff in oakville. Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) with this dealer? They are a used car dealer specializing in high end european cars. What should i look for in the car?
2003 a4 3.0l
automatic 5 speed trans
123500 kms
I have driven it and it feels tight, accelerates well and no unusual noises. Timing belt was done at 100k. Thanks

Bring it to a shop and get it checked over.. Is it a good price?

Bring it to a shop that they wont be affiliated with and get it checked all around. Mechanics wont care and tell you the truth, if you don't buy this one you will take your next car to them again and get more money lol.

I would recommend you pick it up in standard rather then automatic. You will hate yourself for auto after you get it. If you dont know how to drive that, it will take you a few hours to get used to it and three days or so to do it casually

Iknow they do a great inspection at Audi Oakville. I looked at a car while it was going through inspection and everything was taken apart and very shiny

Thanks for the advice, id love to have a standard as im from the UK and have driven standard all my life but they are few and far between. They want $14000 on the road so i shall see if i can do a little horse trading, it has a few scratches/chips but new tires/brakes and battery. They are also looking up the vin in their audi database for maint. history so that should shed some light.
But yes i will get it checked out, thanks again

When I looked they were selling a 04 6 speed 1.8T for 24,999. Not even a year ago..That sounds like a great deal

Picked up the car today, what a rush flying down the QEW in style! Turns out the timing belt wasn't done so PFAFF stepped up and carried out the full service only charging me $600, half of what an independant shop would charge, plus oil change, new wipers and a front lower control arm. Think i got a good deal, Ian Perrott is the man to deal with at PFAFF oakville.
