Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The AUDI A3 HATCHBACK (2016-18) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.0 TFSI SS 116 EU6 SE STRON AUTO7 is a compact premium hatchback: smart and easy to park in town, with a more upmarket feel than many mainstream rivals. Its three-door body looks sporty, but rear-seat access is less convenient for passengers.
With a small petrol engine and automatic gearbox, it suits commuting, town driving and regular trips, especially for singles, couples or small households wanting comfort without a large car. mycarcheck.com recorded 56 look-ups covering 21 VINs; these cars averaged 42,000 miles and around 6,000 miles a year, suggesting modest use.
The average private-sale valuation in the checks was £10,500, with about two previous keepers. Compared with a Ford Focus or Volkswagen Golf, the A3 stands out for its polished cabin and premium badge, while the efficient 1.0-litre petrol setup keeps running costs appealing. It remains appealing overall, though not the roomiest choice.
