  • In this video I am looking at an Audi A5 2.0 TFSI that we recently took in part exchange. Can I double my money on this with minimal amounts of work?

    I found vehicle score to be well out, not only did it give me a vehicle value of half of what my car is it also give me a low score compared to complete sheds.

      Only bad point it come up with that the car is 10 years old, it’s a Sept 2013 with 49k, anything needed doing has been done, always serviced, HPI clear, failed a MOT on headlight beam but only because they didn’t adjust the manual level switch on the dashboard.
      It’s worth at least 10k and they estimated around the 5k mark.

    You should read out the manufacture dates during your tyre look-ins; more important than tread depth.
