It's happening....

.... looked at a B5 S4 last year, ended up not buying it, bought a remapped MK5 DSG GTI, which is great fun, but..... there is something missing and as we only live once, I'm thought I'd get myself a B7 RS4 in Daytona Grey with Black Optics Pack, or possibly a Black Limited Edition and then get it wrapped in matt Daytona Grey.
I'm off to test drive a couple tomorrow, not those exact specs, but worth having a look at anyway
If anyone is thinking of selling on that matches that spec, or know's of one that's going let me know, I'm London based but will travel.
Great forum!
Cheers all,
Ed

FON and welcome.
Saloon or avant? I thought Geordie Jay was selling his daytona Saloon to buy an avant.

Thanks for the
FON, how did you guess? Good info on there though, cheers.
I'm after an Avant.
The one I looked at today had done 66k but only had 3 stamps in the book and little else in the way of reciepts for work!

Wow! 6 stamps vs 10 stamps... That's quite a difference.
Lovely car Jay! It's exactly what I'm after, just in a saloon rather than avant.

3 vs 8 stamps is an even bigger difference.

Just spotted this...

Am I mad to consider something with such high mileage?
It's pretty much the spec I'm looking for. Chuck a matt Daytona grey wrap on it and I'm a happy chap!

personally theres no way I would be spending that sort of money with that many miles.parts don't last for ever and at that mileage hoses etc etc will be wearing...tin of worms springs to mind and you could spend what you bought car for in a year repairing it if things go wrong.
