Just bought a Plus

Post by EuroSag » Tue Sep 29, 2009 8:45 pm

Thought I'd just pop in to let you all know that I have just bought a plus to compliment my existing B5 RS4.

The plus is as far as I know, the first one in the UK, number 036/999 on a 54 plate. In Mugello Blue, done 43k and absolutely perfect.

It was originally owned by Audi UK, so I guess was a press car or something, but either way drives first class and is in tip top condition.

Will get some piccies up in due course.

Anyone want to advise how much I should've paid for it?

It's the dark blue. Looks ace with the dark wheels too :thumbs:

And you guys are too good......... I actually paid 20 on the nose, which I thought was bloody good value.

I have just become the forums most jealous member, I have kicked myself for not buying a B5 RS4 then thought I`d done the right thing buying the six and I would be having the reverse conversation if I`d gone for the 4.
I know buy them both!!!!!
You swine, I`m not bothered at all....REALLY!!;)

You could order the 'Plus' in any standard colour, but the other colour packs unique to the 'Plus' were a no-cost option.

See here and scroll down to the bottom.

Ah good!

Get some pics up, as mine is Mugello,an I want to see what the titan coloured wheels do for the paint colour. Are the trims on your car black or aluminium?

I will try and get some piccies up tomorrow.

Actually, slight error on my part, it actually ended up costing almost 22k, as I had to pay extra for a few things that I mistakenly thought were part of the original deal, ie: new tyres, warranty, tax, etc. I'm still really pleased with the car though. And 22k doesn't seem too bad from what has been said.
