Summary

Audi S3 2014 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Audi S3 2014: VIN WAUBFGFF0F1082520, production year 2014, mileage 158k km, petrol engine, robotic gearbox and an asking price of $18,500. Such a check helps to quickly understand how well a specific car matches the market, whether the price looks suspiciously low and whether the mileage is typical for this year.

Insight: The car is over 10 years old — the condition of key units and rust affect price and risk the most.

Market position

Based on current data, 7 similar offers were found for the Audi S3 2014 (same model and year). Market prices range from $14,900 to $22,500 with a median of $18,800, and this offer is about 13% above the market estimate (this car's estimate ≈ $16,345). This is not always a problem, but such a difference deserves extra attention to the car's condition, documents, registration history and possible bargaining.

Insight: The price is above the market estimate — trim or condition should explain the gap.

History & registrations

The report includes state registry data: owners — 1, transfers — 0, plate changes — 0, years in the registry — 2. The latest recorded operation: Imported from abroad, registered on 2024-01-11. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: One registration history with no re-registrations logged. History before import may be incomplete. The car appeared in Ukraine recently — the history is short, its origin matters.
