The AUDI A3 (2008-13) 2DR CABRIOLET 2.0 TDI CR DPF 140 BLACK EDITION STRON AUTO is a premium compact convertible, offering two-door style and a folding roof in a smaller, more manageable package than a grand touring cabriolet.

Checks recorded an average private-sale valuation of £3,900, average mileage of 113,000 miles and annual use of 7,000 miles. The cars had nearly four previous keepers on average, making a history check and careful condition inspection sensible. It suits commuters and couples, trading hatchback practicality for premium comfort, relaxed diesel cruising and roof-down fun against rivals such as BMW’s 1 Series Convertible.
