FS: B7 RS4 Avant Daytona Grey, 94k miles *Deposit taken*

[sutts]

For Sale: 2006/56 Daytona Grey RS4 Avant. 94,300 miles - my daily driver for the past three years and four months. 3 previous owners to me.

Flat bottomed steering wheel, bucket seats, matt aluminium inlays, sunroof, centre armrest, 6 CD changer, Tech pack, adaptive xenon lights, RNSE+, heated front seats, clear indicators.

Resonated and valved Milltek exhaust fitted and pre-cats removed.

Wheels are very recently refurbished in shadow chrome by Lepsons and had four new Michelin Pilot Supersports fitted in March. Masses of tread left and the wheels are still perfect.

FSH, and the common and expensive maintainance items usual for these cars have been addressed in my ownership or before (DRC, brakes all round, clutch, oil cooler, upper arms, aux rads, door blades).

The service history is predominantly Audi dealerships, with the last one at a well-known Kent based Audi specialist. I've also had a few bits of work done at respected Audi specialists using only genuine parts. Details:

10/03/15: front brakes stripped and cleaned, new Ferodo front pads fitted by KDS Keltec.

Both Auxiliary radiators had small leaks in early 2015 (common fault) so I had the usual modification carried out - new Audi OEM aux radiator fitted to the near side and a cold air intake fitted on the off-side. This is not really visible unless you get on your knees and look! Done at an Audi specialist in Ashford and then refitted more neatly by KDS Keltec.

Last MOT carried out 12/02/15 with no advisories at 90,724 miles.
I have two keys and all the original service books and manuals and an original sales brochure.

I carried out an HPI check when I bought the car, which was obviously clear. It has not had so much as a parking scrape since I've had it and I don't believe it's ever been an an accident a The guy at AmD doing the alignment in 2013 commented on how 'straight' it was suggesting no impacts.

There are a very few stone chips on the bonnet and front wings but they don't detract from the overall appearance. The interior is excellent with a certain amount of unavoidable wear and creasing to the drivers side seat leather, hardly any to the passenger side, some natural wear to the gear knob and the odd small mark here and there. KDS cannot believe the overall condition of the car based on the mileage.

The resonated and valved Milltek exhaust with pre-cats removed gives out a great sound that doesn't drone and isn't too loud or obtrusive - I feel it is perfect for a daily driver.

I am only selling as my family has grown unexpectedly and I would like to free up some cash. Based on the current market, the condition, mileage and the history and work carried out I am asking for a firm £18,000.

The car is in Maidstone, Kent. Please PM or email me at sutts_7 AT hotmail dot com if you have questions or would like to arrange a viewing.

My car is still available to buy. I perhaps should have said in the original advert that other than the common maintainance items that have been done I have had no issues with the car at all, and it drives beautifully!

If anyone would like more pictures such as engine bay or more of the interior please let me know. I hadn't updated the advert or advertised anywhere else yet as I managed to fracture my neck two weeks ago and had a spell in hospital. The one upside perhaps is that I haven't added to the mileage at all as I can't drive for a few weeks at least!

All things considers I still think £18k is about right in the current market but if anyone has any sensible thoughts on that, or offers, then please say.

Now advertised on Pistonheads

Lovely car mate, does it have black headlining, auto lights, dimming mirror and coming home function??

Is that negotiable price wise???

[mischaRS]

Hi I am a dealer but my private car is an immaculate B5 RS4 Avant 108,000 miles FSH bog standard-if you are interested can p/ex for a free up of some cash-mine plus 3K.. as soon as the tax runs out we will market it for circa £16,500 end October !! Best Wishes Martin

Hello bluenose, thanks, no it has a light coloured headlining and doesn't have the other options you mention. It's funny how some of these were specced when new. There is a little room for movementin price , but I would like to think not too much - you need to see how good the car is in the metal!

MischaRS, thank you your B5 sounds great but I've already put a deposit down on my replacement car - not as exciting as an RS4 but one that will suit my current commute and domestic situation a bit better, as well as giving me a big chunk of change to spend on other projects

I have someone interested coming to view my car tomorrow afternoon so will so how that goes and update afterwards. Cheers.

Deposit taken. 'First to see will buy'! Full asking price has been agreed for those following the market.

I feel a bit sad.
