The AUDI A3 CABRIOLET (2013-16) is a compact premium four-seat convertible in a manageable size. It sits between mainstream small convertibles and luxury models, with the A3 cabin and styling. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 3,635 look-ups covering 1,545 distinct VINs, giving used-car shoppers a pool of vehicle history data to consult. It suits couples, commuters and households who want a stylish everyday car with the option of sunny-day drives. Rear seats and boot are less generous than a hatchback’s. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £11,200, mileage of 61,000 and annual use of 6,000 miles, averaging just over two keepers. Its folding fabric roof makes it distinct from an A3 hatchback, while familiar controls and a comfortable ride make it easy to live with. Against rivals such as the BMW 2 Series Convertible, it is a practical, polished choice, though buyers should carefully check roof operation, service records and condition.
