RS4 - opinions on this one?

Post by ronaldmacdonald » Wed Mar 04, 2009 12:33 am

Hello

Wonder if I could get your chaps opinions on this

Is it overpriced/underpriced? Is this mileage a problem?

Cheers

Looks cheap, but in today's climate who knows. Mileage is not a problem at all with these cars provided they've been maintained. It appears to have had all the main items done for that mileage and some. Definately worth a look imho.

I think someone on here may have looked at or had a discussion about this car previously.

If so they may be along soon and give you some imformation.

Seems a good price to me if it's all ok.

This seems a great price considering the Turbos and clutch have been replaced. The only other items to check carefully are the CAMS, gearbox plus fault codes.
Go for it!

Going to arrange a little viewing session next week then - save me from doing a honahan and getting an e46 m3 to kick about in lol.
I have to say after having the S4 and then going to the M5 ive still got a soft spot for Audis - and putting the sensible head on its probably more sensible than a 2 door coupe.

And yes I have escaped many times from Peterbosnia but sadly find myself back here. again.

This isn't the "Lincoln Audi Sales Manager" car that was sold recently?
That had all that work done but some people who viewed didn't rate it

It is this one, I have contacted the seller who has only had it a few months. Claims it isnt a practical family car and laready has two others. Why buy it then lol!

Something doesnt seem right and I think its due a world of hurt. I certainly wouldnt part with anywhere near 12k for it. Oh well, unless a miracle B6 S4 or something turns up that M3 is going to drag me in for another dose of m power lol
