So I will be buying an A3 by the end of March. Due to my previous experience with a 6.0L Powerstroke, I am incredibly paranoid in regards to reliability.
If it makes sense, I'd like to get one with close to or over 100k on it. I don't mind a lot of miles on a TDI. I plan on deleting all emissions and tuning it (eventually). I am aware of the costs I am just trying to find a mechanic who has experience with Audi TDI or TDI in general. In my area, there isn't many options. I am ok with maintaining the car, I am just worried about something major going bad.
I'm looking at the 2012 year and possible 2013 if I can find one with higher miles.
My questions are, is it "ok" to go with a 100k+ A3 or would I be better of spending the extra $$ for the less miles? And what are some things I should look for when buying? I'm very new into TDIs and I want to make a good choice when buying.
