Default Trading my B5 for an A3

I drove an used A3 yesterday and very impressed with the interior and handling. I am seriously considering to trade my 99 B5 for it.

Anyone has any comment on the A3? How do you think it compare to a B5? I feel the B5 is a bit more nimble but mine is getting old. Tha A3 that I am considering is an used one and I would like to know anything that I should pay special attention to?

Also, does anyone has a carfax account and can look up the VIN (WAUNF68P16A001263) for me? It is from a MB dealer and has only 12K miles on it but you never know.

Thanks.

Default You can run a carfax on it for $19.99 or a months worth of em for $24.95.

If you're interested in their data then don't you think they deserve getting paid?

Default That would be a nice change, amazing quality in an Audi

my fargin' B5 Avant continues to amaze me with the ever expanding list or components that have failed!

Granted, I drive it hard but still.

Thanks for the info, Steve.

Your A3 has the exact color of what I am planning to buy.
