Taking the plunge

[lengster1]

Doesnt sound right does it neckarsulm? That spec price and condition in the summer would of lasted a day before sold!

Check pistonheads,a seemingly good value daytona saloon has just popped up

[ShaneyB]

I am confused now.
Have they had it since the summer or is it a different car?

Different car. He's sending me pics of the real one later today so I'll have a butch and arrange a viewing.
If it does turn out to be Sprint Blue it wouldn't surprise me now.

And I thought it would be easy to get a quality RS4 in this day and age?

I guess he has the car but no photos so just posted a similar looking car on PH with a "library photos" caption not reckoning on receiving the full scrutiny of the rs246.com community !

[ShaneyB]

Lol,
Poor bloke doesn't know what's hit him but to be fair he's been very good and responsive. Going to arrange a visit for Sunday subject to the photo's.
Also viewing this tomorrow. I suspect it's had a remap as the Milltek was fitted by AMD and can't see any human having one without the other. Higher mileage than I'd like but worth a visit as it's local.

Blimey!
Just spoke to Simon @ AMD and he remembers the Avant I just posted about and said it's a nice car in good nick. No remap though!

My only concern now is the mileage.

It's a different car so sorted, hope it's as mint, after all the pics might have been summer but no saying which year it was!

Shagga, does it have black optics?

Avant looks OK but I'd be cautious at those miles unless you don't use it daily
Nottingham Audi are trying to flog a sprint 06 saloon via trade auction with those miles, 1 owner and it hasn't got much past £19k on the two goes.

[HYFR]

miles are nothing ... I bought my B7 from audi approved with 65k on it, I put 10k on it and sold it on in perfect condition ....

I'd be interested in the nottingham car they can't shift past £19k!

[ShaneyB]

Hmmm,
Doesn't have black black optics after all. What a waste of two days!

[ShaneyB]

Got the pics now but can't upload them!

Looks very nice but definitely no black optics. I've asked for full confirmation of the real spec.

[HYFR]

walk away if no optics

[ShaneyB]

He's said he will get the black optics added by their local Audi dealer if I decide go for it, so to summarise he's offering me £10.5k for mine, 4 new tyres & rear pads. Service is due in 6.5k miles, just had new front discs & pads. 3 month warranty.

Is walking away the way forward?

Really appreciate your help and time guys.

I want one NOW!

[neckarsulm]

you need to see it (or at least some images)

[ShaneyB]

Got the images of the outside and the inside were the ones in the ad. Could I mail them to someone please as I can't upload from work.

[ShouldveBeenAGerman]

Black optics added by the dealer? my guess is he hasn't researched the cost of that before offering!!!
