Thoughts on this car and dealer please

Post by GarethO » Fri Nov 18, 2011 7:41 pm

Seems the ideal spec to me but does anyone have anything good or bad to say about the car or the dealer?
What's the deal with the solar panel sunroof? What does it power?

Typically, I can't find a nice black avant in the Scottish area (dealer/specialist)

When it's sunny it powers the ventilation fan, so it keeps the interior of the car cooler.

But, the solar sunroof is completely covered in solar cells so it doesn't let any light through - so it's not really a sunroof in the traditional sense.

Yep, in Buckingham. Jez is a good guy. RS4's are his bread and butter car, with some very nice super cars as well (look at this website)

He is currently selling my Black RS4 Avant, Boy will i miss that car :-(

I was considering a car from these guys and got a good vibe from them.

Lovely car...
I have my heart set on a black avant but yours is rather nice.
Interior makes it unique.

I'm looking to p/x a 2010 Focus RS with all the trimmings so if you're interested...give me a shout.
I just can't be bothered with the used market and trying to sell it. P/X is far easier for me. Private p/x even better as we'd both get decent market value for our cars.
