Picked up my 2009 S4 Avant, in Meteor Grey with Magna/Black leather, last week. :kissmyrings:

Thanks! It has Duo Tone Black & Magna Red Silk Nappa Leather with contrast red stitching, Carbon Inlays, Heated Seats, Through Load Facility, DVD Sat Nav, Audi Music Interface, B & O Sound System, Damping Control, Drive Select / Sport Mode: Dynamic Steering, Quattro Sport Diff & Adaptive Ride Control. Rear Parking System, Cruise Control & 19" 7 Arm Double Spoke Alloy Wheels...................... on the down side it has done (more than) a few miles, but that's what made it affordable, for me! :biggrin2:

wow ... great spec .... think the only other pimp thing you are missing is HDD nav - but not a biggie

as for miles - IMO, not an issue if condition of the car doesnt reflect them ... why? a) you have warranty, so no mechanical worries ... b) price is reflected accordingly

no brainer

ok ok there is wear and tear ... but all the miles are dont on a straight motorway in 7th gear, thats less wear than a town car stop starting

lots of low mile fans / high miles haters in the world of cars ... im not one of them

Thanks again! It is a one previous owner car, a company 'bigwig' who did lots of motorway miles, full Audi (Norwich) service history. Oh, by the way it has the Manual 6 speed box. I suppose I should check with Audi with regard to the Thermostat and Water Pump recalls?

19s, ADS, sports diff, and sports seats. :bowdown:

Surprisingly and depressingly four options that don't seem to collectively feature on that many B8 S4s.

Saw a 58 plate Ibis white Avant today on RS6 style 19s, its all about the Avants..........
