DON'T Buy A 2007 AUDI A3 Unless... | 4K POV Review 102HP 1.6 MPI

[@The_Health_Pursuit]

i have the same car with 1.6 mpi bse engine!it is very good but better change the suspension (cayaba or bilstein) and put some 17 inch tires aswell for better hadling!and then change the catalytic converter with some sport cat for a litle more power at the lows.

They are fantastic cars. Incredibly pretty look to the three door models.

My wife has the 1.6 fsi version of this model and nearly 200k miles on it. It has given fantastic trouble free service and looks as good today as when she bought it. A bit underpowered for a 1.6 but that doesn't concern her. Cupholders are under the armrest

[@THEHOTSORA]

I bought the 2010 model of this 1.6 MPI, I think as a first car it is amazing

[@carfanatic99]

You’re completely right, the reliability and build quality of this model is sublime! 🚗

[@ondratoman]

Great and helpful review! Keep it up!

[@carfanatic99]

Thanks a lot 🚗🚀

[@heizukowsky]

I got the retrofit cupholders on my 1.4 8p. Recommended!

[@Lena-fr2de]

Nice review! We're getting the sportback version soon and I'm very excited :)

[@a7u412]

did you get it? how is it? any issues?

[@sleazyduckxoxox]

@@a7u412 seeing as the person you replied to didnt get back to you yet... I just got the 1.6tdi sportback (2010) and its great! tbf it had only one older female owner and 185,000km with a great service history. things i would change are: adding LED lights interior and exterior then maybe adding a 3rd party integrated touch screen. Car handles crosswinds very well, feels very spacious on the inside. almost feels like a mini estate (for reference Im 187 cm - roughly 6'1"). the car is well insulated, not much road or engine noise. steering is not very responsive unfortunately though this isnt reallt an issue for me. the only real issues ive had are from wear and tear and driver error (boot struts need replacing, 1 kerbed alloy and a some minor dings). the car isnt very fast or responsive but as a first car its a step above the usual suspects in build quality, the interior feels amazing and the seats are the most comfortable stock seats ive been in for a car of this price range. all things said, i paid €4,000 for it and couldnt be happier. Hope this helps and best of luck with your purchase!

[@a7u412]

@@sleazyduckxoxox thank you! I’m going with a 1.4 TFSI 2009 so in terms of power it’ll be 125 HP so stronger. I was planning on doing exactly the same changes as yours. It’ll be 171k KM for €6000. I’m going to see it Tuesday and if everything is well, I’ll buy it. I’ll let you know! :)

[@sleazyduckxoxox]

@@a7u412 that'd be a really nice buy! I managed to get mine from €4750 to 4000 by paying in cash so that might help bring the price down a little for you but 6k isn't a bad price at all. Hopefully all works out and you're on the road overtaking me with it soon! 🤣

[@a7u412]

@@sleazyduckxoxox hey. Just bought mine! It’s a 1.4 TFSI 2009 model and the cool thing is the owner had it stage 1 tuned. It’s amazing, the acceleration is incredible and it’s spacious like you said! I guess we can all ourselves Audibros now.

[@10mfeldweg]

I own an Audi A3 3.2 Quattro, I absolutly love it. I actually replaced that card holder with a cup holder cause of that armrest problem. But that button panel is on top of the radio so it isn't in the way while changing gears. It's a 2005 with the smaller radio.

[@carfanatic99]

Totally agree, that’s a bit niftier than this 1.6 hahaha. With the bigger radio it would be in the way sadly but better than nothing ;)

[@NieSpoceniLudzie]

20:40 actually while driving 130kmh the rpms are peaking at 4k. 3k is the amount you get while driving 100kmh

[@snaswedey]

Just bought a audi a3 1,6 e-power myself, love the review and it was what got me to buy it, so ;) Mine however dosent come with all this optional things. But whatever. And its a sportback -09. Last but not least, i'll be the first one ever to change the airfilter since it left the factory =) Kinda miss the "check your oil" warning light though. I wonder what contrys that got that one, Sweden wasnt one of them

[@Thatguysbackagain]

I like the 8p. Especially the facelifted version, it stud out back when it come out in 2008. Iv got the 8p1 2.0tfsi quattro 3 door sline automatic.

[@Hmd991.2]

Amazon link for the Bluetooth audio adapter pls

[@eeeeeeeee8455]

AUDI A3 外表，內裝都非常漂亮非常有質感！！！ VW TIGUAN 外表內裝還不錯！ VW GOLF 外表內裝都普普通通

[@SebastianDavidPB]

Now I wish I would have bought an a3 quattro 2.0 tdi from 2006. Instead of my ford fiesta from 2005 1.4 14v however I'm pretty satisfied with the fuel consumption with the ford compared to german equivalents

[@carfanatic99]

Yeah well two different cars, neither bad but the Audi is something worth switching to IMO 😜🚗

[@1v3r]

Im watching this after buying it…

[@carfanatic99]

And, good choice? 😜

[@NadirLazTl]

Hello, can you link the bluetooth adapter please?

[@carfanatic99]

Sure: amzn.eu/d/eFKdHrv

[@hyperwrldd]

Great car! Is the consumption 7.1L measured in the city? Or combined?

[@avdikslv]

idk but my a3 8p 1.6i drinks 13l/100km in the city. even after servicing!

[@carfanatic99]

Mine was combined haha, 13L seems absurd for such an engine

[@cristiungureanu95]

@avdikslvit means you change gears at at least 3000..

[@zzz_scooter_zzz1109]

I have A3 1.8 tfsi 2007. and I`ve not problems.

[@carfanatic99]

Different engine, this car had the 1.6 MPI without turbo so that's why :)

[@2BuckShot]

This car is good if you get it with LPG

[@graitsaiyaman9894]

Hello, how many km ?

[@carfanatic99]

Hey there, this car had around 165.000KMS

[@graitsaiyaman9894]

Hey bro, thanks for the reply ! I'm about to buy one 180 000km😅 this video was good for me. Thanks a lot ! Take care

[@carfanatic99]

The same engine? MPI is reliable and should go for more than 200K km so no problems. FSI can be more of a hassle haha

[@graitsaiyaman9894]

Ah... it is a fsi ..😅

[@whatyoudo9773]

jesus guy! 5 hr vid that is titled "major problem" ??? get to the point

[@carfanatic99]

I like to share as much details as possible 😎😎

[@paul-k5q5z]
