    I checked an 03 A4 Cabriolet 3.0 2WD with 51K miles and want to get your input on what has been done to it. Let me know if it looks good.

    I didn't list everything just the stuff I'm concerned with. Also looks like the car was serviced on audi dealerships only and there where no bad reports on carfax.

    I test drove the car and it runs strong. Should I worry that the car had too many services or should I take it as a plus since a lot of things were done to it?

    Thanks in advance.

    3 owners is a lot, but at least they're having it serviced. You might have had an anal retentive owner that took it to the shop every time they farted cross-wise and didn't like how something "felt." Have a mechanic check it out if you're worried, but I would rather have a record of many services than have no service records... Just my $.02
