So much for Audi dealers rejecting high milers.
Mind you it might help if the Sat Nav wasn't half out the dash!

I was just on the phone to Audi, listening to the Hold blurb they clearly stated they were only interested in purchasing back used cars less than 8 years old and with less than 70,000 miles on the clock with FASH, so how did these end up with a 77K'er.

the franchise you rang may have a different policy, as long as it meets Used Approved standards then it's eligible.
The warranty co will set a mileage limit but what that is I don't know

Not a bad price from an audi dealer presumably with 12 months warranty. Seat bolster looks worn though.

Mondial warranty has a limit of 100k on renewal

There is nothing in the approved charter that would mean this car could not be approved

Most garages would trade this vehicle as its undesirable, hence why its been there for at least 45 days

Bedford Audi prob paid peanuts for it (£18/19k) in p/x and decided to take a punt to sell it themselves ... Expect a price drop in a week or two, or say 1 or 2 k , and then it will be traded if it doesn't shift

Yes but when you come to sell who's going to want to buy it with close to 100k or more on the clock?

[HYFR]

If its priced right it will always sell
The key at that mileage is the Audi Warranty ...

[adsgreen]

To be honest a high mileage car with a good history can be better than one that's never been used.
If it's had the obvious fixed then no reason why it won't keep going.

I'd bet my RS is running just as good as yours and approaching 79k miles.

[HYFR]

Having had a high mileage RS 4 I totally agree with PG, mileage is not an issue and an 80k car is just as likely to be as perfect as a 20k car IF looked after

But, all parts have a shelf life of either time or miles, and that's why having an Audi warranty on a high miler, IMO, is the key to decent (see: easier) resale as it takes that element of worry away

Tbh, If I hadn't bought my Cab, I'd be down Bedford Audi right now taking that car at £23k with 1year mondial warranty and min approved standard ... I could do with the load space

Oh well, I'm sure I'll get over it tonight when I'm blasting away with my roof down and milltek up

[Ice_Coffee]

I bought my car approved used with the mondial warranty, I have no knowledge if the previous owner kept up the audi warranty or not, will I be allowed to extend my warranty at the end of the year?

[HYFR]

Yes ice you'll be able to extend no probs
