The AUDI A3 (2008-13) 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TFSI 200 BLACK EDITION is a premium-leaning compact hatchback: smart and sporty, but still practical enough for everyday UK driving. Its three-door layout suits singles, couples or small households more than those needing frequent rear-seat access, and it sits above basic family hatchbacks in image and finish. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 242 checks across 69 distinct VINs for this model, with an average private-sale valuation of £3,500. Checked cars averaged 115,000 miles and around 6,000 miles a year; the average keeper count was about five. These figures describe vehicles checked, not a guarantee of any individual car’s condition or price. With the 2.0 TFSI 200, it is the lively choice, and Black Edition styling gives the A3 a distinctive look. It suits commuters and drivers wanting more punch than a Ford Focus or Volkswagen Golf. Check running costs, service history and rear-seat practicality before buying.
