Haven' t seen one, but it is described as a crossbreed between saloon and 4dr coupe, whatever that is.
A3 is near the end of its life now and you need to take that into account when considering buying. Had one in 2009 and loved it, but think it needs an overhaul now.

Thanks for all replies, but was wondering if the Slantback is really a hatchback. .

If you google it, it certainly looks like a hatchback.
Regarding Golf being the same car, don't agree there. Had a 2009 A3 and more recently a 2010 Golf (both 2.0 diesel) and I did not think them similar at all.
