I, much like a multiplying proportion of consumers in the current economic climate, have reverted to buying Used Cars rather than new cars. There are two main reasons for this altered trend. The first is that naturally, Used Cars are incredibly cheaper than buying new. Secondly, the depreciation costs as soon as you drive a new car away from the dealership are too harsh for most car drivers to bear. Hence, the Used Car market is experiencing something of a boom and I am happy to say that I have joined in.
After many hours research and viewing owner reviews on the web, I decided that a great car for me would probably be the Audi TT. The Audi TT is essentially a relatively powerful sports coupe with an abundance of power from the V6 engine. Some have described the Audi TT as a jet-powered rollerskate, but to me it represented so much more. The stylish Audi TT seems to have been designed for those who like to be seen and noticed and I guess I would class myself in that category.
However, this kind of luxurious motor doesn’t come cheap first hand, so I began to scour the Used Audi market for something a little more affordable. After minimal searching I discovered Sytner Used Audi Dealerships located up and down the country. Their website displayed a excellent number of extraordinarily priced Used Audi models which seemed like the kind of value I had been angling for.
A wonderously short visit to Sytner Used Audi later and I was test driving a nearly new Used Audi TT, which to be completely honest, ticked all my pre-requisite boxes. I paid my money and drove my Audi TT home, proving how easy it is to find a awesome car with very little effort.

Buying used cars can be a terrible business. More often than not you end up with an old banger which barely makes it from the dealership forecourt to the main road. That is why you have to shop around before settling on the perfect model for you. I went Used Car shopping recently and found myself bombarded with choices from all manner of dealers. There is a simple trick to making sure you don’t get conned by any dodgy dealers and that is to take your time.
In my experience the best Used Cars to go for in general are Used Audi cars. I bought a fabulous Used Audi TT for less than £10,000, which turned out to be a very prudent choice. The engine was awesome. The handling was spot on. Everything about my Used Audi was absolutely amazing and I got it for a bargain price.
One of the absolute best ways to choose your Used Audi is to test drive it first. I was careful to make sure that I tested my car in as many conditions and terrains as possible. I appreciate you only get a short amount of time to test drive, but try and take your prospective car along the following.
1.Dual Carriageways or motorways: This will ensure the vehicle can handle speed and check for faulty parts.
2. Country Roads: This will ensure the vehicle has adequate handling on tight turns.
3. Heavy Traffic: Stop start traffic and clutch work will indicate if the clutch is adequate.
By utilising all these driving conditions you will be able to gauge how functional the car is.
My final tip would to be to only visit reputable Used Car dealers. I bought my Used Audi TT from Sytner Used Audi who have an untarnished reputation when it comes to selling Used Audi models. I recommend you heed my advice.

It cannot be argued that if you spend cheap, you get cheap. I couldn’t agree with this sentiment more and believe it rings true in all consumerism, especially car buying. I have a plethora of memories of the first car I ever bought. It was a 14 year old Renault Clio with a worn out clutch, a dodgy exhaust and car stereo that worked intermittently (only when it wanted to). I bought this car for £500 which gives some indication of how below-par it was. My point is that if I had spent a bit more cash, I would probably have seen a better return on my investment.
Which brings me neatly to my latest car; a Used Audi TT Coupe. I bought it from my local Sytner Used Audi Dealership and was pleasantly surprised with the reasonable prices. I am a bit of a pedant when it comes to used cars (especially since my disastrous Clio) so virtually harangued the dealer for all the details. Surprisingly he took my aggressive questioning very well and even proffered detailed and honest answers.
After a test drive that took in the local countryside, I decided that the Used Audi TT was the right car for me. I parted with my money and patiently waited for my journey home. It wasn’t just any old drive home though; it was epic! The Used Audi TT responded so well to the bends and bumps of the road and was unbelievably sppedy in the straights. On the slip road to the dual carriageway I scared myself by putting my foot right to the floor. The growl of the engine nearly deafened me and the lurch forward was so strong my breakfast nearly reappeared.
If you are currently looking for a used car, I would recommend you spend a little more at Sytner Used Audi. You’ll really notice the difference.
