SOLD RS4 B8 with wingback seats £26500

The time has come to list my Audi RS4 B8 Avant for sale. A new EV is in the offing so combining this and my existing EV into one bigger car.

I’ve owned the car since April 2022 having purchased it from James Glen Cars (a reputable independent garage in central Scotland) following the birth of my daughter. If I was going down the dad car route I wanted to use it as an excuse to tick a car off the bucket list and scratch the V8 itch before it’s too late! I only use the car for family days out and holidays so always gets proper long drives covering 7k miles in my ownership.

This RS4 is a 2014 model in sepang blue and has done 53000 miles (averaging just shy of 6k per year). I purchased it with a full Audi main dealer and then after a bit of research I went with Autohaus (Loanhead, Edinburgh) for the next service (Autohaus are a well regarded Audi specialist with DRC experience - they have been brilliant so really happy with the decision to go with them and would recommend them). They also did the front drive oil (Audi Perth who serviced it last couldn’t tell me this had been done definitively, so asked Autohaus to do it as a precaution). Please see photograph for all records and expected due date of various maintenance items I’ve been using to ensure it’s kept up to date. In short, other than usual service items, the additional service items for the RS4 are not due for years (assuming you’re not doing tens of thousands of miles a year). Please also note pads and disc brakes were done at 42000 miles. I’m not a heavy braker and there’s loads of life left in these.

Autohaus recently did the MOT which expires on 27 April 2024 (no advisories) They also did a full health check and diagnostic reporting no issues and said it was one of cleaner examples they’ve seen.

In terms of specification, it is a high spec car which can be seen from the spec list I obtained from Audi. This includes:

Wingback / bucket seats (if you’ve done your research you’ll know these are rare)
Sports pack including sports exhaust, sports suspension with DRC and dynamic steering
Black styling pack (all trim black including roof rails, grill, window surrounds - wing mirrors also colour coded originally these were matte aluminium)
Piano black interior trim
Driving Assistance pack including adaptive cruise control, Audi advance parking system, Audi active lane assist, early steering intervention and late steering intervention
Bang & Olufsen sound system
20 inch rotor alloys (unmarked) with Michelin PS4 tyres with plenty of life.
Sat Nav
Xenon lights
Rear view camera and park distance control front and rear
Auto dimming/ heated / folding wing mirrors
Mobile phone preparation - Audi connect
Privacy glass
Gelding boot floor mat and genuine Audi rubber mats for the footwells

I’ve also got a set 19 inch genuine OEM RS4 alloys (pictured) that I was going to use as a winter set but never got round to it. These are sold separately at £750.

The car is completely original other than some minor easily reversible cosmetic tweaks as seen in photos (colour coded wing mirrors, black badges and number plate surround).

I would describe the car in excellent condition for the age. There are some minor stone chips, odd minor scratch and some road rash, but nothing that detracts from the car or gives me cause for concern (and I’m very fussy). The front wings and bumper have been resprayed to address cosmetic imperfections. The car has been garaged the entire time I’ve owned it (I’m the fifth owner and seems to have changed hands every 2 years since new). I also SORN’d it over the winter to help with preservation (battery kept on trickle charge) I ensure the car is only run on super unleaded and is properly warmed up and cooled down. As far as I’m concerned, this is a super car in an estate body and I’m just the custodian of a very special car for the next owner.

I’ve added a picture of the spreadsheet I use for maintenance tracking so anyone interested can get a sense of when next round of maintenance is due.

No silly offers or comments please. Not in a rush to sell as new car won’t be here for a while. Happy to answer genuine questions. Car is in Livingston just outside Edinburgh.

£26500ono (no part exchanges)

Looks like this is heading for a trader. Last call for anyone interested - open to offers!

Scrap that - thought a deal was agreed over the phone but no show. Will hold out a bit longer for a private sale!

Will be taking the car to Skye early September so will be adding a few hundred miles whilst I’ve still got it!

The market is so crap at the moment. Probably one of the nicest B8's I've seen - best colour, black optics, ultra rare wingbacks and low miles with a good history. If I didn't have a B7 I'd buy it.
Don't give it away to a dealer if you can help it.

Thanks. I was prepared for a long wait, but things have changed and need to make room for my late father’s M3 which requires some money spent on it.

Why not give to a reputable local trader on a sale or return basis, agree a minimum price for it, they can offer finance where you can't..just a thought..
