2015 '15' Sepang Blue B8 20,000 miles
2015 '15' Sepang Blue B8 20,000 miles
With much regret I have decided to try and sell my excellent condition Audi RS4 Avant in Sepang Blue Pearl.
Car is free of any finance and currently sitting at just under 20,000 miles.
Full Audi service history – all works completed by Aberdeen Audi who supplied car new. Car has been serviced annually regardless of mileage covered and never been on a long life service regime.
• First annual service completed at 7,591 miles on 25th March 2016
• Second annual service completed at 11,855 miles on 27th March 2017
• Third Annual service including first MOT test completed at 15,512 miles on 08th March 2018 – Gearbox oil in front final drive changed, brake fluid changed and genuine engine air filter elements supplied but fitted by myself
20,000 mile service items carried out early when last serviced.
In addition to the regular servicing the following has been completed under warranty:
• Both front shock absorbers replaced due the common knocking fault – now perfectly silent as expected
• Mechatronics unit was replaced at 11,194 miles on 10th February 2017 – S-Tronic oil replaced at this time also as part of the warranty work
• Gearbox replaced due to whining internal oil pump at 12,760 miles on 01st August 2017
I can honestly say that this will be the best car that I will ever own. However a change in job location has seen my daily commute increase from 14 miles per day to 70 miles per day. Due to this increase in commute distance, I was not prepared to use the car for daily commuting; 1 because of running costs and 2 because of increased wear and tear. I have since purchased another car just for the commute.
It is unfortunate that I am no longer able to justify keeping the car sat in the garage being barely used on the odd weekend here and there.
My wife and I went to Germany and Holland in the car in September and it was amazing. Again, this will be the best car that I will ever have had the pleasure to own – I cannot think of another car that would be able to cruise flat out on the autobahn for mile after mile, perform a lap of the Nurburgring one week; then in the following week transport our daughter to nursery.
2015 ‘15’ Audi RS4 Avant first registered 23rd March 2015 in excellent condition – car has completed just shy of 20,000 miles and as such does have the inevitable stone chip. But no scratches or dents. Car is always parked in an end space miles from the place I am visiting.
No previous owners – owned from new by me; and factory ordered for me.
The following factory options have been fitted:
• Sepang Blue Pearl effect paint
• Sports Package consisting: 20” V-spoke polished Titanium alloys, Sports suspension plus with Dynamic Ride Control (DRC), Dynamic Steering, Sports exhaust
• Audi hill-hold assist
• Bang & Olufsen sound
• Black styling package
• Full black fine nappa leather with grey piping, black headliner
• Driver Assistance Package consisting: Adaptive cruise control with braking guard, Audi parking system advanced, Audi active lane assist
• Convenience Package consisting: Memory function for Driver’s seat, power folding/autodimming exterior mirrors
• Heated front and rear outer seats
• Privacy Glass
• Carbon effect interior inlays
I am a car enthusiast and the cars I own are my only real hobby. Keeping them clean throughout is one of my main pass times.
Car has only ever had rubber car mats fitted inside – the carpet mats that came with the car new have never had a shoe set upon them. Similarly, the boot has had a genuine Audi load liner fitted from new and as such nothing has touched the boot floor. I do own a dog, and she has been transported regularly in the car (one of the reasons I bought a fast Audi estate), however, you would not be able to tell.
Our daughter’s car seats have only ever been fitted when a seat protector has been in place, so the leather is in excellent condition too.
Rear seats are generally rarely used and heated seats have only been used to test that they actually work – never used in anger.
Car is currently on a set of genuine Audi winter wheels and tyres that can be purchased via separate negotiation.
The 20” V-spokes have never seen winter roads so are in excellent condition.
I am finding it hard to value given the wild variation in prices across places like Autotrader.
So I will test the water with £36,000 with the V-spokes. If the winters and not wanted, I'll do the swap myself for free.
Private plate application has been placed not long before writing this – car will come with SW15 XZR. Test drives will only be completed by me.
Car is located in Peterhead – 30 miles North of Aberdeen in Scotland.
I hope that the weather is improved over the weekend so that I can take up-to-date pictures – including the interior.
Genuinely regretful sale, but it is the sensible thing to do. Surely a reasonably rare opportunity to buy one from the original owner…
Open to offers - I can only politely decline.

Beautiful car.

Re: 2015 '15' Sepang Blue B8 20,000 miles
Small update: the new V5 has arrived after retaining my personal reg.
Weather is also atrocious here at the moment so there will be a delay on the photo updates.
Some clarification regarding the gearbox replacement; this was not due to a catastrophic failure. The internal oil pump for the ‘box developed a whine. This was a serviceable part, but Audi decided to replace the entire gearbox. Only Audi know the reason for this decision.
Finally, updated the mileage to 20,000 as I drove her to work on Friday which has taken the miles over 19,800.
Thanks

Finally managed to get some up-to-date photos uploaded since managing to get a clean done.
I am open to offers - the worst that can happen is that I politely decline
All keys are also present (two main keys and the plastic valet/emergency key) - only one of which has been used since new.
If there are any questions, please PM me and I will do my best to answer.
I will be advertising in the usual places in the new year as well.

I have just noticed this on eBay selling for £16,700. Might be worth reporting the seller. Unless you’ve gone mad and you are now selling it half price!
Re: 2015 '15' Sepang Blue B8 20,000 miles
It was a private individual. All the traders that called funnily enough wanted it for nothing. My response being
