If your seriously in the market for an rs4 i wouldnt be on here alerting everyone to this example id be on my way to view it!!! The screen £14995 is a fair price so at the mega discount price its a steal,providing of course it checks out in the flesh

Not seen it around.
Looks really cheap especially with that spec and recent discs and pads.
If "condition does not reflect the price", what does, the fact it drives like a t*rd?!
It's had 6 owners BTW.
"Cheapest in UK for condition and history" just makes me wonder what IS wrong with it in other areas.
Go see and let us know!!!

Thats surely a steal at that money. I was thinking of advertising mine at ~£14K, and mines is almost on that mileage too.

Fingers crossed it's not a minger

Even more weird the pics are from Pistonheads!!
There is a pistonheads ad for the car but it's in Essex, wasn't it in Wakefield (01942) before?
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/941867.htm

PH ad is 2 days old so I presume the person bought it and brought it back to Essex.

Funny how they are pretending to be a private seller then isn't it :twisted:

..interesting but it was the description of the car that made me think it was the same one not the pics.
Also original advert is no longer live on Autotrader.

there is a common scam that happens on auto trader, indeed happened to me when I was selling my old B6 A4. I had it on ebay as a classified ad, then somehow it appeared in autotrader, i.e. same photo's same description, but at a stupidly low price and with dodgy contact details.
I called autotrader who asked if it had been on Ebay as they say this is a common scam. They removed the auto trader advert.

I dont really understand the motivation for the scam, prob some dude in Nigeria . . .

might be the answer to this mystery ?
