Just been to Audi dealership looking to buy 2007 with 22k on clock,just like your advice on the discs.They have a appox 2-3mm,may be more lip on them, being the originals.Sales person suggest it has been through the Audi check but i am concerned they are,or in very near future, in need of replacements,knowing the cost involved this has put me off.
Just one more thing,the bolsters have a few scrapes,not tears, he suggests they can be dealt with by leather "specialist"?
Thanks for looking i will find one soon.

RE: Min Disk Thickness on Dealer Car
I am in the same boat with one I am after - you just have to weight up the pros and cons of each particular car.
Key points I am considering are;
number of owners
mileage
specification - does it have nav, FBSW, buckets
bodywork condition (originality and number of imperfection)
condition of tyres
condition of wheels - particulary careful to spot smart repairs which may look OK initially
condition of brakes
condition of seat bolster
scope of warranty
amount of tax that comes with
A car with none of these in its favour should be worth a lot less than an up together car yet most cars are roughly the same price.

RE: Min Disk Thickness on Dealer Car
Ask for the discs to be changed for new ones or the sale's off, simple.
They're over £500 for a pair + fitting, so either get that taken off the sale price, have them done for the sale, or walk away - lots of B7s for sale.
Ditto the pads.
Re the Leather - just get some Liquid Leather - that'll sort them.
