B7 RS4 Avant - Car now sold thanks to 'The Auto Lounge'

Post by Aldo » Thu Sep 15, 2022 2:17 pm

As per the subject title on this one, I have been really torn on this but before I change my mind I am posting this initial high level ad, intention being to further populate when time allows.

Quick summary first before I bore you with its life story........

Specification:
2007 B7 RS4 Avant
Phantom Black
97k miles
DRL
Adaptive headlights
FBSW
Recaro hard back bucket seats
Solar sunroof
Black headlining
Carbon inlays
Heated front & rear seats
FSH (Mixture of main dealer and independant)

Mechanical Works Complete:
New clutch and Dual Mass Flywheel
KW V3 coilovers
Meyle HD control arm kit
H&R front and rear anti-roll bars
Forge Motorsport Oil Cooler
New discs and pads all round
New Michelin PS4s all round
Recent MRC carbon clean, de-flap, cold air feed and Stage 2 map
Headlight rebuild/refurb by EM Tuning
Miltek Non-res, valved exhaust system
New battery
New windscreen
New washer fluid reservoir

Bodywork
Car has just had a near full respray done to a very high standard before going to Spotless Detailing for a Stage 1 'post paint' correction and GTechniq ceramic coating
Spotless Detailing also applied Xpel Paint Protection Film to the full front end and sides (bump strips down inc. side skirts) + entry strip to the boot
New front door blades (genuine Audi OEM parts) - I got very lucky sourcing these
New alu window trim (genuine Audi OEM parts)
New wing mirror bases (genuine Audi OEM parts)

I have owned the car since 2012 bar a 2 yr hiatus when I sold to a collector before buying back! I did always ask to have first refusal, so when the phonecall came I couldn't resist. During this ownership term, it has been a 3rd car so I have had the luxury of being able to spend the 2yrs since bringing it up to the condition it is in today. Ready for the lucky next owner.

The car is beyond question and is in the very best condition and health since I bought direct from Audi Perth in 2012. Ready to be used and enjoyed, safe in the knowledge that so much mechanical work has been completed or tucked away in a collection such is the condition of the car.

PM for pics until I find the time to upload.

Asking price is £24,500 or best offer

Happy to listen to sensible offers after a good chat with the prospective buyer. Any inspection welcome and will photograph any areas of interest or provide a walk around video to help those further afield before viewing in person.

I do not need to sell but I am going to give selling a go along with another of my cars, plan being to consolodate into 1 toy. Its a stressful life being torn between cars and after my efforts bringing this car to where it is today, I'm looking for an easier life haha.

Car is located in Aberdeenshire.

Thanks for looking,
Al.

This just popped up on my feed....

That paint looks beyond exceptional !.. I'm judging a book by its cover here and and willing to take an educated guess based on the sellers post and limited images, the rest of the car will be in the same condition...

Stunning car mate..

Thanks for the kind words Stuart, its nice to get some appreciation after all the money and effort that has gone into this car. I'm hugely proud of this car and am still getting my head around just how nice it has turned out.

The interior will not dissapoint I'm sure.

rspj01, thanks for the interest. I'll drop you a PM with my number.

Cheers,
Al.

That looks magnificent, and the mechanical work is spot on. I normally struggle to reconcile £25k and 100k miles, but this looks worth every penny…

Thanks Dom, it's nice to get a little apprecition from a fellow enthusiast.

Knowing my car as I do and just how well sorted it now is, I genuinly believe its a bit of a bargain. What does £25k get you these days? Let's face it, not a whole lot.

I would love it if my car had mega low mileage but then it would be a £30-35k car and I'd be too scared to put any miles on it.

I had it on a 100 mile round trip for business today and parked up amongst the plethora of modern greyness, it didn't half look good!

It will soon be off the road for winter and I'm currently looking into storage options so if anyone knows or can recomended a place in the Aberdeenshire area please drop me a line.
