2012 Audi Q3 2.0 TFSI SE SUV 5dr Petrol Manual quattro Euro 5 (s/s) (170 ps)

Description

So I’ve been keeping this car for a while now — it’s a 2012 Audi Q3, 2.0 TFSI, manual, quattro, and it’s got that nice 170ps punch. I bought it new and it’s been a solid driver, mostly just me and two keys (which I’ve kept, so no worries there).

I’ve had it through two owners from the start, and it’s been properly looked after. There’s a full service history — proof of seven services — and I’ve just had a fresh service done, including spark plugs and clutch replaced. The 17-inch alloy wheels are the original 10-spoke design, anthracite metallic finish, and they look great.

It’s got all the smart bits: parking sensors, lane change warnings, Bluetooth, dual-zone climate control, A/C, and even a 6.5-inch screen with Audi Music Interface and CD/MP3 player. I’ve also got SD card support and a spare SDHC reader — handy if you want to load up your own maps.

The interior’s clean, with cloth headlining, heated windscreen wipers, and nice touches like aluminium roof rails and door trims. The seats have manual height adjustment, and the rear seats fold down easily. There’s even a small storage box under the front centre armrest.

Safety-wise, it’s got everything: ABS, ESP, airbags (front, passenger, side, head), anti-theft wheel bolts, and even a first-aid kit. The mirrors are electrically adjustable and heated, and the windows are fully electric.

I’ve had it checked by a proper mechanic before I sold it — even tested for any noises, and everything was fine. I’ve also got a 3-month nationwide warranty and free breakdown cover during that time. Delivery across the UK is available too, and I’m open to part exchanges if you're interested.

I’m based in Stanford-le-Hope, Thurrock, so if you’re local or planning to move around, it’s a pretty easy drive. I’ve been in the car business a bit, and I’ve always liked how cars should feel — reliable, well-maintained, and not just flashy. This one’s been that for me.

If you’re thinking of getting into a used SUV that’s actually driven, well-maintained, and has a bit of character — this might be the one. I’ve got a bit of a soft spot for it.

Price is £6,028.20 — but I’ll talk about that if you’re interested.
