DK, the Audi one in Green does have Nav.
Buckets or Comfort Seats, FBSW or MFSW - neither cost more or less than the other so no poverty, the cost would be the same.
You could call comfort seats and MFSW 'Maturity Spec '

..or fat boy spec :0

OK, so in summary

as long as you swap out that hideous steering wheel, then its a good buy !!

TTRS wheel, yes please

Also it has folding mirrors.

So it's got a "normal" MFSW and not an RS4 FBSW, folding mirrors (which means they're standard mirrors and not RS4 mirrors - which don't fold) and Recaros not buckets - seems like it was spec'd by someone who wanted an RS4 that didn't look like an RS4?

Spot on Dave - I have a name for it - not poverty spec, obesity spec
The funny thing is that it isn't the only Central London car that had this spec, I know of another green Avant with Recaros and wood inlays.
I think the people that specced these cars are prob middle aged with another fast car or classic and they just want an RS4 for their own sensory pleasure (you still get 90% of the RS4 experience whatever the spec) and not wishing to draw too much attention. How it affects resale value isn't something they are bothered about either.
Would make good bargains in the future.

I'd have more of an issue with the mileage (66k).

Specing wood inlays on an RS4 should be a capital offence.

Memory seats controller definitely goes in the driver door pocket, looked at an RS4 with it in.

Tough spec, no FBSW or Buckets (I know some like the comfort seats) plus the mileage and I think it is all about what price you can get it for. I think they will find it hard to shift. Nobody really wants an RS4 nowadays unless they are an enthusiast and enthusiasts tend to want all the right options. I am still trying to work out if I pay for fuel and get an RS4 or get hit with depreciation and get a BMW 335d touring.

Love the colour, used to have a MKII Golf in a similar colour.

Oddly enough, I bought a 335d Touring last year after very nearly buying an RS4/S4 Avant. Ultimately, it came down to the best deal and longevity as I'm keeping it for at least six years. It don't half shift, I'll give it that but it ain't very exciting getting there if you know what I mean!
