Higher milers were selling for 15k privately 18 months back

There's a good spec manual black Avant with 64k from memory on Audi Approved. Has a Milltek iirc. It's up for 17 or 18k. Worth viewing and negotiating perhaps?

Never seen a 15k b8. How high was the mileage and do you have a link or is it very old?

Ffs get a grip, 15k a year leggy? 200k would be leggy, and then you would see sub-£15k

The market spoke; the car referred to was £15k for a reason. That is because it had a 100k on the clock. Unless it had other issues in addition.

As I said initially, show me a £15k b8 s4 avant on the market now. If there is one, it's likely done that sort of mileage. Current b8 avants are around £18k min. Good ones with quality history, low mileage and good condition are 20k.

Post any £15k b8 s4 avants you know of, if you would. I am intrigued.

Fair dos, I assume that's cheap for a reason. Looks a bargain. I advise the op goes to look at that. Never like the bottom of the market purchases. Cars are generally cheap for a reason .

Thanks for posting up the ad.
I'll make contact with him.

FWIW webuyanycar value that car at £11400.

All of a sudden a private sale at £15k, or even less might be attractive.

I've been keeping an eye out for some time and have seen several sub £15k cars advertised - some at traders and they have stuck around for some time. Perhaps due to mileage. Perhaps due to low spec. Perhaps due to location - normally Scotland or Northern Ireland.
