Looking at Caveman's posts, he removed the Zorst and C6 wheels to sell privately on here, the rest stayed on the car.

The gearbox appears to have been serviced lots under his time also, which is a good thing. If it had been this time last year I think I'd have gone for it, but I guess my concern is what's happened to the car in the last 12months since he sold it.

I'm based in South London, but we have family up in Shropshire who we're. Siting over the next few days, so I might stop by on my way up there later today.

I'd love to come along and hear some of the answers to your questions. Sales might not be too bad but the service department, embarrassing.
That car is a lot of money, just hope that's the way the C5s going now.
previous- Pug 205 gti, 306 gti, 309 gti Goodwood.
Audi S3, S4 V8 avant.
Porsche Macan Turbo.
Gone but NEVER forgotten - C5 RS6 Misano red avant.

Now - Empty garage

If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there!

It wasn't 12 months ago. I bought the wheels off him in Sep/Aug, we met up just outside of Nooorf Luuuundan and he was on his way to the stealers for the big swap to the C6 Allroad RS6. It still had the Ohilns on it.
A mint example.
No matter where you go, there you are.

How did you get on with the search, I'm in a similar situation. I take it that Stafford Audi wouldn't move on the plus

I abandoned the idea of a C5, cancelled my S6 order and bought a brand new B8 instead.

To be honest the car at Stafford isn't all that, so if you're thinking of seeing it be aware that it's showing its age. The inside is rather scruffy and the warranty being offered is sketchy.
