It's a shame you didn't take the time to do so prior to posting your ill-considered juvenile comment.
Having recently spent over two grand on brakes and a major plug service, and the car benefitting from Audi extended warranty and full Audi service history there is a price that I am not willing to go below.
Others have posted that anything sells at the right price, I would suggest that if you're desparate enough for a sale you can continue to slash your price until somebody buys...I'm not.

What is your asking price?
Thanks
The fact F15HAR was been through this thread and edited several posts 23rd Nov would suggest this RS6 has been traded, and it looks like this one:

There's a similar 2009 Sepang with privacy glass with the same 55k up at T H Boler. However, one has 2G and the other has 3G, so they are definitely different cars.

It's the version of the MMI (sat nav / radio / media) system.

2G = 2nd generation, 3G was updated version that came in during 2009.

Basic differences are that 3G nav runs from a built in HDD rather than DVD, has more 3D info, works a bit faster and has a slightly higher resolution screen. And the "media" part of the system gets SD card slots to play MP3s. The control knob on the dash is also slightly different. To the untrained eye, you wouldn't notice the difference at a glance.

I'm sure some will disagree with me, but I think 2G is very good and I never found myself wishing it was better in any way (and I love technology). If I'd had a car with 3G though, I'm sure I'd find a 2G equipped car slightly frustrating, at least initially.

IMO, condition of the car, history and mileage etc come much higher up the list than 3G vs 2G; yes if 2 cars were the same in terms of price and condition, and the only differnce was the MMI system, then go for the 3G equipped one, but it's not a game changer. Doesn't make the cars faster or able to corner any better!

My thoughts exactly

I can see the visual differences now and understand the tecnological differences but is it worth £1500 more between the 2 vehicles
Plus the 2g has audi warranty remaining.
Is the warranty bullet proof or should I still be cautious?

Also should I be worried about the re map? It was done by unit20 I believe which I think are well known but obviously it's not mtm which is probably more favourable

Sorry for going slightly off topic

Audi warranty is as bullet proof as they get. The exclusions are minimal, especially compared to some 3rd party ones which really can be worth less than he paper they're printed on. Plus if you get a car with Audi warranty in place you get the option to extend it each year without any silly questions (you do have to open your wallet of course)
