Hmmm, dodgy owner that one... but my favourite B8.

That B7 is only worth buying if you plan on keeping it as a garage queen and never taking it out in the wet. Yes it has a lack of service but how much damage can you do in the few miles it has been driven in that time. It says last service at 2019 miles and summarises the total mileage at 2k so depends how far into the 2k it's got. It doesn't say when that final service was, I'm assuming it was recent. I'd guess it has done 800 miles in 5 years between services.

Where is Riv? Haven't seen him for a while on here. I don't think he loves us anymore.

I imagine that he's busy with his house build and the associated stress that comes along with that. I did see him/the Riv drive past the other day and it's such a lovely looking car on the road. Crap advert though, I'll have to rib him next time I see him, doesn't even mention the bucket seats or paint protection film it has.

That B7 I seem to remember being for sale nearer £40k, when it came up for sale? The advert now is just touting for stock.

That probably explains why it seemed to stop being serviced in 2012.

Mike, they've just re-posted the advert from 2012 and then added - sold, similar required. A bit cheeky considering it was 5 years ago.

I saw the advert for similar cars required but assumed it was sold recently.
