They don't really do offers they like to play hardball.

They had a beautiful black avant for sale when I was in the market think it was 24k and I offered him 22k in actual pound notes. No interest and never phoned me back.

Does the fact that, as I understand it from members on here that there is only a maximum of 97 RON BP Ultimate fuel on sale in NI affect the engine much? I'd want to know as a purchaser. When I had my car tuned at MRC (yes, I know, I know, naughty girl for going elsewhere initially but then that's me..) they were pretty scathing about the use of lower grade fuel on the engine...

There's an RS4 Avant for sale near me here with 16K for £33K... I have seen it and it is mint.

Lady P, out of interest just how big is the boot in a cabriolet? Completely off topic I know.

They offered it to me at £28k.

So someone's taking a bath

Yes, it's a little odd. Can you remember the mileage it had when advertised before?

I'm up that way 2nd week of Feb, so if still about, I will drop in and take a look over it.

Its last MOT expired April 2015 when it had done 23k miles, odd!

Flying up to Scotland tomorrow and thought I'd check this one out, if still for sale. Had a look on http://orwellmotors.co.uk and the car is now gone, no surprise considering the price.

A quick check on Autotrader and saw this one (link - http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... 1291776540) , so just wondered if it was the same vehicle minus the ceramics. The spec looks the same, year correct, mileage about right and the one thing which stood in my mind; was the engine carbon trims were in a non-yellowed condition - which this has.

Also just had an MOT - coincidence?
