Dont like the general level of rusty fixings and oxide on all the aluminium under the bonnet....
Its either been stored near the sea for 2 years or its got some ghosts waiting to come out....
A few photos of the underside of the car would be interesting if the stuff under the bonnet has gone that scaley....

Still could be a potential good buy with the low miles it has on if the price is right

estimate is low based on the mileage relatively speaking however service history is awful, also like the line

"A superb two owner (first was Preston Audi) high revving (8,000rpm!) B7 Audi RS4 4.2 FSI, which should develop 414bhp is offered here."

Agreed on the level of corrosion present in the engine bay, not keen on that and there being 3 missing MOT's.

Haha, thats precisely what i was thinking!
I ran a check through a history database and it was also iff the road without MOT from 2010 to 2013..... and between the two MOTs it covered only a thousand miles in thre years.... which could be due to its owner being overseas or any number of reasons..... but you would think if it was yours, you would have kept the MOTs going....

Or, it was an unrecorded flood damaged car.....

Anyway, why is it being auctioned and not privately sold.....? :bigblink:

If it was mine it would hsve been serviced more than an average of once every 5 years. Can you imagine how bad that oil must be? And that is assuming it didn't have 2 services in 2 years then none for the next 8 years!

Tyres are dated 2009 so are now 7 years old.
Brake discs look shot.

And no auto lights.

A good example of low mileage not meaning a good car.
