    Hey all,

    I am about to part with my hard earned cash to buy a A3 Sportback 2.0TDI Quattro S-Line. The car was advertised as a 170ps however when I phoned the insurance and gave em the reg they said "ah yes A3 138bhp Quattro S-Line" I nearly fell off the chair and asked them to check, he said they sometimes show up as the wrong car. I phoned the garage and asked them to check the log book and confirm but they acted a bit coy and said it doesn't always say on the log book.
    Can someone tell me how to check for certain. I mean I test drove it and it felt like a 170, but now I have doubts.

    Cheers.....Jimmy

    When you get to five posts, send me the reg number by Private Message, or post it straight on here if you don't mind. I can then tell you exactly what it is.

    Hey Crasher, does that mean it is an import? I'm probably being a bit thick.

    All VAG cars are imports but that is a UK Audi dealer supplied car, country code X2B.
