Re: Has anyone managed to successfully repair or wrap the milky aluminium trim?
Yeah so initially I was aware there was a difference between trim and mirrors but after trim got done mirrors did not look good - I requested they leave them alone because they only had a few chips. We came together and ultimately they wanted everything done to make it look complete and I came arou...

Replacing the trim pieces just wasn't an option any more so we had ...

Has anyone managed to successfully repair or wrap the milky aluminium trim?
My RS4’s aluminium trim that goes around the windows has gone milky. I’ve seen quite a few like this so know I’m not alone. After much research online and after consulting with a couple of detailers, it seems that this is anodised aluminium and is impossible to restore to its original state. I’m sur...

Re: *Wanted* C6 RS6 Avant Plus
Can't help with your search (although I will keep an eye out) but curious - what does the plus have that the standard model (with options) doesn't?

Re: Wanted B7 RS4 Saloon - Imola Yellow
Bump up to the top.
Here's another one I'm aware of that has been SORN for the past few years - anyone know anything about it? VN57 LNV

Re: High Mileage B7 RS4 (135k miles)
All very good points. I would be fine with getting 12 grand back for it post having spent 18k, as long as I enjoy ownership and driving the car which by all accounts, I probably will. Plan was to buy a cheaper, high mileage with all the jobs done, enjoy it, sell it for what I can and use that as a ...

Re: High Mileage B7 RS4 (135k miles)
Thanks for the response. I will likely have it for a couple of years and move on. I would happily pay more for a an example that had all preventative work done and was a higher price with lower miles, but the one I had my eye on sold before I could see it. I don’t really want to buy a lower miles e...

Re: High Mileage B7 RS4 (135k miles)
Firstly, welcome. Mileage is a difficult one with these. I've seen better condition and well looked after 120k+ mileage cars compared with 25k mileage cars that have been off the road for a decade, missing service history, riddled with rust and corrosion. So buying on condition is always key and the...

Re: RS4 B7 residual values
You're not wrong, they are in an increasingly downward spiral. Like Dubbsley, I bought mine in peak post covid prices, had I waited literally 2 months longer, I'd have saved probably £5k. The amount I paid for my 70k mile car, 25-30k mile cars were struggling to sell for a few months ago. B7 prices ...

Re: Fresh Paint and Stage 2 from MRC
Any reason you chose to have the rear bumper valance painted silver? How many miles are you on? Always curious to know what mileage people still supercharge these at. Personal preference but I always feel it's a false economy especially if paying MRC to do it, different story if you do it yourself o...

Re: R8 4.2 FSI V8 Manual Coupe
Are you still selling from 5 years ago, or just periodically quoting your old sale post once every couple of years?

Re: Audi Tradition.
So I can buy parts through my Ltd company and they will deliver to me in the UK no problem, but I can't use my personal bank account to buy? Seems odd.

Re: GF56 ZXP
I posted a while back about a 217 mile car ( or something super low ). I'm sure the person who bought it was here on the forum. It would be interesting to see what the car needed. Although, I'm guessing it's not being driven given the crazy low milage, kind of an ornament at that point. Yeah, I don...
