11:15 tbh, after looking at the search, even though 10k is 3 years ago 60k miles price, that is decent in comparison to what the search returned, especially considering the options
Getting deja vu with the boot latch comment, Calvin check the boot locking setting's I thought my boot latch was broken for month's and had to only use the key until I found out that for some reason the boot latch was set to off on the setting's, turned it back on and voila boot latch works again!
There is no way traders who have been in the game since the 90s would be paying good money for something with 6 former keepers, your profit is in the buying, to pay good money the car needs to be 1 owner it's entire life with loads of history and low mileage, usually secretary cars that can be driven a few miles a day to work and back only or what was known as dead man cars, a car owned by an elderly person who was probably in bad health and may have a 20 year old car with 30K on it and the family just let it go for next to nothing as they are clearing everything, you can pick up classic BMWs, Toyota's or Mercs usually like this.
@@iwasntaguntilimovedouttheh3961 He said it himself in the video if he was buying it to sell on he would have never looked at it but because hes just buying it for giveaway and wants to give back to his viewers he doesn't knock the price down too much.
@@tadassmolskas3014 I think it's more common than you know with younger traders, older traders wouldn't even bother going to look at a car with 6 previous owners, that guy would have struggled to sell that privately, think about it would you give 9 grand for a car with 6 previous owners and 90 k on clock, the first thing I would think is whether it's had a haircut between M.O.T's with one of the previous owners. 6 previous so 7 owners say it was 100K that's just over 14K mileage per owner! The seller done well here.
I didn't see his advert but if he spent some time cleaning the hell out of it then taking lots of pics at a good location and writing a good advert he could have got way more than £8750 on Auto Trader. Doing a video as well Calvin got a bargain here
If this guy found a green cat N s3 he’d tell the owner he wanted a red cat s , no matter what you got this guy will tell you he wanted different which psychologically puts you down ready for a lower offer based on someone’s unreasonable expectations. The best way is to walk off not listen to what someone’s doing to trick you into less £ 🥷🏿🇬🇧
Great video as ever Calvin.The car looks like a goodun.But am i the only person who doesn’t like the A3 Audis? Personal choice obvs,but I’d take a Golf over the Audi any day.Just on the looks alone.
Textbook vid on doing all the checks before you buy lol. I fucked up a bit with a 2011 A5 for my gf forgot to ask about cambelt and spare key 🤦 but paid 7.5k for a clean example, awesome car in azura blue with pan roof. Think when i saw it, my heart took over and lost my head 😂
It's a heavy amount for these now I have an rs3 replica s3 8p by the way not sure if u mentioned 8v in the beggining but this is an 8p btw if you where thinking it's an 8v. But I payed 1600 for mine an it rips but has none of the extras you explained but no cat on it this and that I'm surprised all these are around 5 grand more now
I had a spec like this and Tbf his asking price is decent, as without the pan roof these are worth £7/8k the pan roof justifies the other £1/2k. If this was put on Facebook someone would’ve snapped your arm off for this
they are all dreamers asking 9-10k for em when i had one had one they only 6/7k on that age n spec about 8 year ago, if you got 5/6k now for one youve done bloody well. IMO in this guys case its not standard, not full Audi SH, few bit wrong with it, hes a dreamer!!!! but then again i guess given most people finance or take loans on everything these days rather than old fashioned save up and pay cash which is what I've always done, they don't appreciate how much real money 10k actually is. its laughable when you think about it realistically.
Keep strong dude. I was & still are going through some tuff days. Other RUclipsrs have helped me through. Stay strong keep you cool look forward and use RUclips to help you through. You can do this honestly your stronger then you think
Calvin, why would you buy his for when you can get 3k cheaper on a/t there’s one 100k m, panny, 5 door white for 7k would take 6.5k. Can understand if it’s got like 60k miles but there’s nothing special about it except it’s blue
6 former keepers! So his the 7th owner that's ridiculous. You can get cars from 80's-90's with half that amount of keepers which have usually been past through the family. That's had the life thrashed out of it by drivers who want to bang a nippy car around for a while.
Nar just because theres alot of owners dont mean its trashed, people probably buy them cars (S3) and find out there not a economic car to live with and daily then sell them on, all depends on how well its been maintained
@@scitec717 I hear you it was between that and Toyota Prius. This lad is doing well off the website subscriptions and channel views I can't knock his hustle. If your watching for how to buy a car, not so much.
Oh I just sold my one for 6.5k , after 2 years ownership then buying a seat cupra the seat is way better, 10k wtf sorry but he's dreaming no way they are worth that
Lovely motor that, with spends, but i just couldnt deal with that Aaron kid. Very sketchy with his information on his own car and avaoided giving a straight answer almost every time he was asked anything!
Nothing sketchy at all. Just nervous being on camera and not fully clued up on what’s been done as only owned it a short period. When were straight answers avoided?
@aaronallodi2650 when asked how much paid for the car....only owned since Feb and you ALWAYS know what you've paid for it. Other times did pop into mind when watching too, but I'm not about to watch the video again to be specific.

Love these subscriber car buy videos, keep on delivering top tier content calv!
Was looking at these before I bought mine, all been to the moon and back and still commanding strong values, I'm glad I went with the scirocco tbh
I'm putting the back seats back in my gti, think it might sell a bit easier! After seeing this I appreciate why dealers appreciate original cars ❤
Surely that's just common sense.....
Summer. Give it a Petrol station wash before land. Always helps. Does look well.

You give yourself away cal.when you love a car they got you hooked lol ,nice car.
Currently trying to get a nice s3 8p my self will need to try my hand at this one stunning car.
I want the same for mine and it’s a year newer lower mileage minus pan roof.

Do these have a timming chain aswel as that would be due he said cam belt done and water pump but not chain
Titanic Marden Palace- amazing hotel, enjoy the live music in the reception bar👍😎
Where can I find your 0-100 times board?
Hope it was a fuse for the broken horn and not the clockspring behind the steering wheel? Nice video again Calvin 👍🏼
Enjoy your Holiday Calvin. As ever good video.
As far as traders are calvin you are top tier, not into modern cars but would love too see something classic on the channel something 90s!

I would never agree to having a car dealer trying to knock my price down on camera.
Except my man wanted REALLY strong money. IMO I would have said bye bye at that price and if I wanted one in this spec I would buy pvt and save 3k. 😂
Worse things happen at sea. I agree tho
Don’t go to a RUclips CAR DEALER who you know for a fact is going to have a camera & video you then 😑 common sense isn’t common 🤡

The one constant on this channel is the nice humble nature of you Calv, such a lovely genuine bloke.
Calvin great content and motivation ❤
this is case in point - don't buy a cheap performance car unless you have set aside a big wedge of cash for fuel and repairs .
If the price ain't right its a no for me good negotiating 👏🏻
Great video as ever Calvin.The car looks like a goodun.But am i the only person who doesn’t like the A3 Audis? Personal choice obvs,but I’d take a Golf over the Audi any day.Just on the looks alone.
I had the sepang blue one honestly the nicest blue I've seen. Jaw dropped when I saw it in the showroom when I I picked it up from Audi
Loving the 4K quality!
Love the Audi S3s great cars great video mate 🤛🏻
Thought I seen this car about, must be around Tilbury docks area !
Textbook vid on doing all the checks before you buy lol. I fucked up a bit with a 2011 A5 for my gf forgot to ask about cambelt and spare key 🤦 but paid 7.5k for a clean example, awesome car in azura blue with pan roof. Think when i saw it, my heart took over and lost my head 😂
Great colour that car 👍 Looks a lovely motor
Seems like a real nice Guy
Good negotiating skills there Calv buddy...Superb car with nice spec 👏🏻👏🏻😍😍

he could have got 10k easy
Yeah I agree 10k for that is not even bad
Calvin, Is that a Performance Blue Hyundai i30N I spot in the yard I would love to see a video on that car as I've heard good things about them.
Yes mate I’ll get a video done on it, should have it live very soon 👍
@@CalvinsCarDiary Thanks for that Calvin.
The amount of issues I have seen with the pan roof I'd never even consider one
Spotted you in Barton today in this😂
Always loved these but they hold strong money for their age!
they are all dreamers asking 9-10k for em when i had one had one they only 6/7k on that age n spec about 8 year ago, if you got 5/6k now for one youve done bloody well.

Paid too much fair that Calv

Think calv done that when he wobbled the engine cover 🤣
09 S3 £8,750 🤯 I’m buying nice cars cheap and taking them to Calvin I’ll be a multimillionaire before you know it 🤣🤣🤣 your too generous Calvin
Tbh look on auto trader.. cheapest sprint blue one is £7300 and 140k miles one after that is category D
..then one after that is clean but £11k...
Hi Calvin Going through a real tough time at the minute every hour but your videos always make me feel better
Keep strong dude. I was & still are going through some tuff days. Other RUclipsrs have helped me through. Stay strong keep you cool look forward and use RUclips to help you through.
You can do this honestly your stronger then you think
I have this exact car just a 3door mtm edition very rare
Gorgeus car , mine had to go to copart unfortunatelly because of typical Audi gremlins but I still think they are nice
Gorgeous
I personally would not have even entertained him especially at the price he was asking for!!
Interesting, sprint blue is common in South Africa.
Now I've got to do more over time for boosts 😂🤣😂🤣
😂 sorry mate!
Calvin, why would you buy his for when you can get 3k cheaper on a/t there’s one 100k m, panny, 5 door white for 7k would take 6.5k. Can understand if it’s got like 60k miles but there’s nothing special about it except it’s blue
Liked before I watch it as I know it's going to be great
Every video is💪
Always!!
Lovely jubbly Calvin 👍🏻
aaron got done, poor lad
Got to be the 3 door on a hatchback
its like watching a police interview with the suspect mumbling, stumbling and waffling through.
That couler is fire 😍
Colour
Yep watched this a few times it's a beaut big boosts
Love it Calv 😍
Wouldn’t have dropped under 9k personally but needs and musts I suppose fair play very nice car ❤
He probably didn't want to wait plus he doesn't have to service it. Also it's annoying selling a car, so many time wasters
Its gunna be worth around 9k anyway if you aint gotta,pay for the service
If you want another s3 I’ve got an MTM edition one, very rare . I won’t be knocked down though 😂
CALVIN YOU'RE SUCH A NICE GUY !
❤❤
Sometimes we need to appreciate the privilege of having our price knocked down .
But the if is the other way around . 😂😂😂
ty Calv gla
Plus you stole it at that price 😂😂😂😂Bargain
I’ve got a 2015 Leon ACT 1.4tsi 80K miles if you’re interested 😂

Lovely car 👌🏼
Air duct was loose
How is manual a negative… if anything that’s a positive rare as fuck
Most wants dsg's these days
Bet that fella if he’s watched this must be pissed knowing Calvin would of paid more money for it lol I’d of said 9K firm that car would of sold
Looks a sweet lad
poor guy just wanted to sell his car, not to prove his case at court lmao. great car
Great entertainment
£10k for 100k miles tfsi motor 🤣
Not even had the camchain and tensioner done 🤣
These videos are so stressful 😅😅😅 pure awkwardness
me personally prefer the years after
Love to win it
could’ve pushed 9 without service

So basically he’s selling his money pit Audi to recover his lost money he spent on the Audi I can’t hate for that.
I want that Audi lol
I’m not gonna lie, but he seems hesitant when answering. He would make me nervous.
Nervous being on camera mate, that’s all
He's only had the car since Feb he ain't gonna reel off the last 6 years 😂
Fancy a 2016 scirocco 2.0tsi stage 1 modded blue for planet of dreams 😂 10k
7k I’ll come collect it right now lad
10K too pricey
