550ps Misano b5 RS4 - 13k - PX b7?
Posted: Mon Jun 25, 2012 10:32 pm
I’m considering selling my RS4 which I have owned for just over 2 years now. It’s the second one I’ve owned and in total I have nearly 5 years of RS4 ownership. They are great cars but I fancy a change for something newer, probably a B8 S4 Avant or B7 RS4 Avant. I am however not sure I really want to sell as it's a great car.
My car was formally owned by RS4Rich on this forum and he was pretty active on here, so research away on past posts.
In my 2 years of ownership I have put 30k miles on the car and it’s never missed a beat. The only things that have gone wrong are the EGT sensors and the steering rack which needed replaced due to leaking. All I’ve had to do is service it and replace wear and tear items.
The car was fitted with a replacement engine at 100k miles by Unit20. This was a 55K mile engine at that time and hence has done 45K less miles than the car, which has now done 132K. I have a receipt for the work.
The spec of the car is as follows:
Audi RS4 Avant (B5)

Paintwork is really good apart from the front bumper which has some lacquer peel and stone chips. Car is garaged every night.
Would be looking for 13k. Will consider PX for b8 S4 or b7 RS4 Avant with cash your way.
Better pics to follow once the weather improves.
