2002 Audi A3 Sports review from Hong Kong

Ignition computer failure requiring towing away at ~30000KM.

Busted Turbo pipes at 45000.

Faulty fan (1 of 2) with overheated engine at 43000 requiring both to be changed at a hefty price of HK 5000.

Easily scratched and flaking surface on the console of the radio and headlight switch.

Melted fuse box with difficulties starting at times --> Fuse box needs replacing at HK 2000.

Can never jump start this car when battery runs flat.

The multi-disc changer never workeed properly--> Never able to read all 6 discs and always give "CRC error" message.

This car is quick for its engine size and handling is awesome if it is starting.

Great styling and has a lot of character.

Cabin is great and comfortable with good Sound system (Audi concert)

Ride is on the firm side though.

If you don't ming paying a hefty maintanince price do get one.
