6th B7

Well, I'm on to my 6th B7 now
3rd cabriolet
I know they are gay but find me another 4 seat 414bhp V8 for the money
It's actually to be my wife's car mainly having sold her A4 cabriolet final edition.
So, randomly looking at AutoTrader ... Some observations
1. Only 12 listed for sale in the whole country
2. 4/12 are cat C/D ?? WTF, they really are being bought by hairdressers who can't drive and a bending them.
3. Including the cat c/d's there are only 3 non black cars
4. If you have a requirement that goes something like
- buckets
- average miles
- not black
- not written off
You are buggered
So makes this rare car even rarer.

But aren't hairdressers really good at bending?

Epic spec/car, but what's it's name?
Edit: must be some reference to the greek flag, or the smurfs !!

The buckets are all silver
The interior needs a clean up, but I'll get it brand new again

Nice, first ones I have seen in all silver.
Be worth the effort, they look really nice when they are clean.
I have a spare set of leather covers that are about to be refurbed if you have any problems getting your ones to clean up.
Not normally a fan of the cab but that is a really nice example.

That's a good colour combo! Gliptones leather cleaner and a soft brush will do the bizz I'm sure!

That was a cheap car. Congrats
