RS4 B7 Avant....

Didn't you see it on sale in the "classifieds" section.

Felt sure that KMPowell would have gone for it as he posted it as a topic in it's own right.

No mate.... Wasn't Really looking to buy this year. Just popped in the garage to see what they had and couldn't resist

Ive heard of it before but on much earlier a4s not the b7 model.Might be worth having it scanned for fault codes.

Well don't look now........

Meaning what he wanted 20.5k for it?... That doesn't bother me in the slightest. Cars are worth what someone will pay for them right?? Pending any issues that MRC come up with the cars sound. Looks and drives superb, i love the colour and it's got all the right toys. From what I've read on here in the last few hours your better paying a bit of a premium for a minter when one comes up than buying a dog. What you think?

Agreed - condition is everything.

Just a shame that a forum member's car had to be sold to a new forum member via a dealer for a sizeable mark-up?

Apologies

Trip to MRC when I'm back from this hole (Saudi Arabia) £143 for a check and dyno run. Any issues back to the garage to smash some heads and get it sorted... No worries

[d9lek42]

True.... But if it saves me a few quid in the long run Im not that bothered. It won't be then first £3000 I've blown or the last lol. I'm suppressed after reading those posts the car didn't get snapped up at 20.5k I'm fairly new to these cars and don't know a deal but that was a bargain in my opinion

[d9lek42]

Surprised even!

Got my avant over 4 years ago now with buckets flat bottom wheel etc etc, paid £29.500 that I would say was a bargain with 16.000 miles on the clock, car market was on it knees!!

Less said about that can of worms the better, but IMO it was overpriced (both privately and at the dealer) which is why I didn't go for it.

Lovely car though, glad it went to a good home
