If I had another £1500.00 I would enquire. Looks lovely.

Good luck.

Probably the Audi extended warranty, not sure what is covers for an 8 year old car as most problems would be classed as 'wear and tear'..

I rang up about this car to check the spec. It doesnt have the autodim mirror that Im after.

Also studying the pics I noticed a nasty looking scuff to the nearside front bumper near the bottom.

Otherwise it looks quite a nice example!

WTF No autodim mirror and a scuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your barking completely up the wrong tree when buying one of these cars,you could do both of those for £1-200,these cars are getting very hard to find in good origonal striaght condition,you want to be far more interested in much more expensive matters, you will take forever to wait for a perfect car/price/mileage/spec to come up given theres not many of them in the first place,im not meaning to be harsh mate but you should be looking alot deeper into an rs4 before dismissing it over a mirror and a scuff

I totally agree, my RS4 was a good honest unmolested example in black(my No.1 colour choice) with no major issues other than a few minor cosmetic ones...

Did you find out where the actual car is based?

Been on for ages this one and they had a green one on there too that took ages to sell which makes me a little suss.

Why can't the owner sell it on their own behlaf and why are both cars at the same house?

i enquired about the green one a while ago and the owner worked away in norway or something - therefore carspy had been employed as an agent to sell the car
