Hi guys I'm still looking for a Audi Rs4 I've seen this one any advice? Please what do you guys think of this one? I think it looks pretty smart, a bit strange they've not put the plates on!

Looks ok from the photos...they have done the classic front seat shot not showing drivers bolster..

It seems a little high mate and I always worry when a dealer lists...

Body coloured bumpers, Drivers airbag, Front electric windows, Front head restraints, Isofix child seat anchor points, Steering wheel rake adjustment, Steering wheel reach adjustment, 3x3 point rear seat belts, Solid Paint, Alarm, Front fog lights

... which is standard.

For the mileage I would expect sub-£20k but then it might have great paint and DRC that is beyond question. If it was £18.5k I might be tempted but no auto-wipes or lights
£20k is stee opp IMHO - but just check history, knock a grand off and check the paint as black is perishable and I thing you'll be OK. Consider warranty from Audi if that's your thing and make an offer.

It's not a great distance away from me it's in Birmingham which is about 30 odd miles away I'm off on Wednesday going to go have a look then hopefully. I've checked on auto trader they seem to be going for that sort of money give and take a grand here and there but if I go for it ill defo try knock some money off! Lol your right it all depends on the spec now I over looked that bit, and that the history is all there and matches up thanks for the advice guys

Seats look tired to me for a car that has covered 60K
Make sure you give it a good look over and all paper work to prove history.

Mate - If you are serious about getting an RS4, the best advice I can give you is don't ever buy the first car you see, make an effort to see as many as you can. You will 'know' the car for you when you find it. Also - do try and buy from a forum member - that way you will get a well looked after example.

The previous owner could have been a porker, rolling in and out of the seats....but good advise anyhow.

They've barely made an effort with the ad... unless apparent laziness (the blurred photo of the rear bench and rear of buckets) has been left in on purpose to give that impression. Double bluff. Based on my limited experience, you will always get a cheaper car from a dealer that just needs to shift a part-ex... but you NEED to know what to check (the usual list). I would also see it on a dry day; that way you can properly inspect for any shock leakage. I saw a few dogs at book price but could have landed a bargain (with a little work required) but eventually paid a premium and STILL had to get almost two grands worth of warranty work done. I know a lot of people on here may laugh, but IMO an Audi warranty - as expensive as it is - is worth it. YMMV.
