New Owner - Dealer Advice please.

[B-ill]

I thought i'd update on this as it's quite interesting and I wouldn't want anyone else getting caught out.

I have now been refunded on this car. Marshall Audi didn't even offer to put anything else right when I pointed out that they had really let the brand down by selling an approved car in such a way. I was offered a refund but at the same time verbally threatened that this wouldn't happen if i continued to troll them on the internet. My partner posted about our experience on Instagram, unfortunately for Marshall she has quite a reach on there and it caused around 50 comments slating Marshall / Audi. None of her words were factitious, and she was totally within her right to post about my experience.

In short Oxford Audi really didn't meet AUC standards and miss sold the car. Since taking owner ship the car has had the following issues either resolved or made worse!!

4 new tyres replaced - sold to me originally with Dunlops on with 2.1 / 2.4 mm tread, wheels were also damaged on fitting of these tyres!!
I told Audi there was a wheel judder at 70MPH which they deemed to be the tyres! That wheel judder still exists.

New windscreen - Damaged and heavily pitted which coincides with the over spray, it looked like lacquer on the windscreen to me.

Brake fluid change - this was over due and not done prior to my purchase

MOT - wasn't done prior to purchase

Drivers rear DRC shock replaced.

Airbag light has flashed up a few times and there is a slight perforation on the airbag that has appeared next to the silver circumference ring.

I discovered over spray underneath window trims when I had the chrome trims vinyl wrapped, the car has been painted down one side, i'm 99% sure of it. There is a hidden story to this car which I believe they tried to cover up. I was originally told that the previous owner painted the engine cover white hence the over spray, this doesn't add up when look under the bonnet.

Basically avoid Oxford Audi, they will either damage your car, order the wrongs parts, lie to you or call you back in 2021.

The car is a 2015 Suzuka grey RS4. OV15BXB it now has 27k on it. It will probably end up at auction. On face value the car looks and drives great, but its hiding something. I believe its been around a track or two during it's early life being registered at Paragon Bicester.

I'm now in the market for an honest B8 RS4 or possible early facelift C7 RS6.... I would love to buy a loved example from a forum member.

I think registration at Paragon Bicester means a Audi UK or press car.

Yep. However I was told it was a sales mangers car at Oxford Audi
