Look bad to me, the first pic of the engine is from the new RS4 (grill) and its red and the car is shown in White? also is that that not the new bucket seats?

I would stay well away from that one!!

"however car pis at side of road is actual car"

The car has pissed at the side of the road? Is that saying the DRC is leaking or something?

In all seriousness I reported this to fleebay and guess what it's still live.

No doubt. I have asked a few more questions about Milltek, remap and options so will see what answers I get this time if any.

Seller has also sold two dresses on eBay recently.

This dealer is saying
Milltek Non Resonated Exhaust System,Cost £2388

Why do people think that a buyer won't check these things - maybe it was gold-plated?
