Nice, but only books at 12k even with those miles.

Almost to good to be true.
16 days to run it will be interesting to see what it makes if it's not snapped up before the end of bidding.

Wasn't someone on here looking for a low mileage car

You've got me confused with somebody else

I've repeated stated that I think book is less relevant to these cars but the reality is I've sold two and its only when you come to sell that reality bites

Problem with cars like these, is everyone likes to think they're worth more than they really are while they own them, but come sale time, end up dissapointed that they either can't find a buyer or they have to in their eyes take a 2k hit on the price.

I've been looking for an Rs6 for a while, and all the ones that are well priced sell within days, all those that are over priced never sell, or at least take months with several price decreases along the way.

I missed out on a 2003 55k saloon the other week, it was up for a shade under 15k and had just had the cambelt, brakes, tyres and gearbox done, full service history and only 2 owners.

Then you see a 2003 80k+ car up for sale with none of the above work done apart from service history for 15k, and the owners wondering why his doesn't sell.


I've decided to sit tight and wait for a realistic one to come along :wink:

I might change my mind once i own one though :roll:

[quote="480bhp"]Problem with cars like these, is everyone likes to think they480bhp - you are quite right, I have now had all the work imaginable on my RS6; including DRC replaced with KW3s and I am looking to sell; however when you look to price, there are cars that are sub £10k and others touching £20k and they look very similar.
I have spoken to a dealer in the London area and he reckons that given the work done to mine it should sell for £17k at a dealers and £15k to £16k privately.
But it is a minefield and it all depends on the buyer on the day?
