You so...have the measure of me John! - 27" :shock:

I only spotted the stuff on yours, as I quite fancied it for myself. Just got beaten to it.

....well there you go! Not much passes the chaps on this forum by! sold for £15.5! I thought it was a pretty good price at £17k TBH
It actually sold in auction for £14,600, it was missing half the history and when I enquired, the seller couldn't advise on condition of brakes, clutch or a carbon clean. The only comment I received was "it goes as it should" :|

just came across this one;

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-RS4-AVAN ... 1537570310

high mileage, but says 1 owner and plenty of money recently spent on it. Looks nice and clean, although bonnet gap needs sorting (mind you I'm not entirely happy with mine yet either) and has chrome not carbon trim. To my mind a well maintained 90K+ RS4 with right paperwork is a much better bet than a significantly lower mileage but 'questionable' one. Guess it depends how significant mileage is to you. Sure someone on here will know that car too - currently at a dealer called 'sharman group' in Madchester

Good work John, it's better off with you as I'd have put miles onto it :thumbs:

Anyone bored, care to spot what's not quite right with that one? I'm not talking about the wheel colour either, just would bug me more than the shiney steering wheel and some other small minor things.

Umm - I thought it was generally okay (jesus I'm scared to post any pics of my car up as you'll pick out things I haven't noticed and they will then drive me insane!). Only other thing I can see is the roof rails in chrome but rest is black optics.........and yes it would also drive me nuts.....now you pointed it out.

Yup bored to death, its a slow day in the office.

:thumbs: You got it.

Looks like they painted/wrapped the window trims and grille surround, yet left out the roof rails. Weird.

I wouldn't worry about posting pictures, I recently had a little detail pointed out on my Blue one when selling it that I'd never noticed before. It happens.

The listing as a 415hp diesel doesn't inspire much confidence in the dealer either!

But more than that, I'd be a bit concerned about what lead to a timing chain change?

I did look into this one, all sounded a bit dodgy, dealers number was out of use, finally got through on the mobile & he told me the car had a few problems and was going back to Audi, couldnt tell me what the problems were or any of its history.....

:lol: ...nearly got me!

Loving the pixilation of the company logo and proof reading their own website text, wouldn’t go a miss either. I think, that car may have been sold through a recent BCA auction?

Ha ha you guys don't miss a trick. Not only can you spot nearly every defect simply from a photo, you know the sale history of most cars too. Every time I log in I learn something new...cheers chaps

The longer you look for the right car, the more you'll start to spot the not so right cars. Wait for the right car. It'll save you thousands in the long run.
