I know what you mean - it's a big comittment taking a flight to look at a car but there's tonnes of information on this forum so you should be able to gather all the relevant questions you need to be asking a seller before you decide to see a car so you can reduce the risk of a wasted trip when you do commit to going to see it.

Yes the sprint blue is a stunning colour when they've had a good wash and polish...that's what I went for although I do sometimes regret not having been really b@llsy and elected for imola yellow!

Oh well, thats the Avant at Fontain Motors sold already, and no reply at all to my e-mail to the other place asking for more details.

I'll just have to keep on the hunt for a nice standard car, if only there was more choice closer to home :(

Didn't even get a reply? That's shocking, I can never understand that kind of laziness and it annoys me how they're even in business if they don't bother engaging with people who want to give them some of their hard earned money!

I'll be posting my advert tomorrow so will send you the link and just let me know if you're interested in discussing further.

It's very likely I'll mine up for sale in the spring. Had it over in NI last week!

...except maybe Imola Yellow, but that would take some serious b@lls.

To me the Fontain car looks better

Also I would prefer to buy off Fontain as there cars seem to be the best rs4's available.

The Fontain car is sold already, didn't sit long. Although they didn't even bother replying to my email either.
