Hi John,
I have it listed in the 'Cars for sale' section on here. viewtopic.php?f=63&t=113359
I've also sent you a PM with my contact number so you can ask as many questions as you like.
Cheers,

As others have said - little things like mismatched tyres and a really easy bit to replace missing (badge on steering wheel) would leave me asking what major things there might be wrong with it that haven't been sorted properly.

Good luck with your search - I ended up travelling from Coventry to London and Hertfordshire to look at RS4'S before driving to Huddersfield to pick my one up.

The silver interior option hardly ever photographs well but looks much better when you see it in person. I know this because when I saw my red one for the first time I winced at the pictures of it on autotrader and remember making comments like 'jesus, who specced THAT!'

I only went to see it because it was the nearest one to my house but ended up buying it (yes, I know, the first one I viewed) because the interior won me over.

And I too wanted the buckets....

Comfort seats are very easy to live with, wear much better, have electric adjustment and give the car an air of a gran tourer.

Bucket seats give the car a sportier feel, wear badly if you don't take care getting in and out, are more demanding to keep clean in silver but do look very cool.

Both are good but for different reasons.

Personally I would try and see as many different cars as possible as seat type, leather hue and headliner colour all can have a big influence on the feel of a car.
