After 6 amazing months together, we must part company to help buy a new house.

Could I ask the opinion of the forum as to how much I could get for my beloved:

- Aug 2006
- 33,000 miles
- I'm the 4th owner, albeit the trader I bought it off was number 3
- Silver with anthracite grey wheels
- New disks and pads all round
- New Pirelli P Zero's all round
- Recently serviced
- Sat Nav
- Carbon inlays
- Front and Rear Parking Sensors
- Electric Recaro Seats
- Heated Seats
- Xenon Lights
- Front Centre Arm Rest
- Immaculate Condition
- Full Audi Main Dealer Service History

Thanks in advance.

Sounds similar to this one: http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/2887132.htm

As a private sale I'd say about £27-28k?

depends whether you want honest advice, or us to kiss ass (to put it bluntly) ....

the link posted is well over priced !!

the book (p/x, trade) price for the car is £21.5k

Silver is the most undesirable colour and buckets are preferred, whatever people may say here ...

FBSW is the Lambo flat bottom wheel

For a private sale I'd say your looking at £24k, or no more than £25k

Im ready for a load of people to come on here telling me in a dick, but i know a few things about selling cars, and if you can get more than £25k for it privately in todays market I will eat my face

hope that helps ...

Thanks for the honest advice and it does have a FBSW.

I agree, it does look way over priced compared to what I bought mine for.

Fair enough, prices must have tumbled then as the owner of the car linked to above was a forum member who sold it to the dealer for £28k not long ago.

fair point Steve ... i think the Audi warranty, buckets and 20k made it attractive to a specialist trader ... £28k ?? hhhmmmmm

prices are tumbling

your prob right Mac ...

given CliveH's 40k black Saloon with Buckets & Milltek went on the weekend ... £24.5k (asking price

& there's Steve's Sprint Blue Avant with Audi Warranty for £24.5k not gone yet

both, IMO much more desirable to the general RS 4 market than a Silver car with no buckets ... £24k might be pushing it

btw, Mac, you do know yours is Yellow !
