Wanted B5 RS4 Avant

Post by d.sloan » Mon Feb 18, 2008 5:23 pm

Hi everyone,

I'm a new member to the forum, looking for a really good RS4 which has been fully and properly maintained and well looked after. I am happy to pay a sensible price for such a car with good provenance. Ideally would like an original panel car.

If you have a really nice car for sale, or know of one, please get in touch.

Thanks

Dave

This one looks good http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/378117.htm

I believe it used to belong to a forum member (Brooner?)

You could also try Nick Johnson www.nickjohnsonmotorco.co.uk, he always has a good selection.

My old B5 is also back up for sale: http://www.rs246.com/index.php?name=PNp ... ic&t=68027 I'd be more than happy to give you the low-down on this one if you are interested.

That Nick Johnson has some nice motors. I still can't understand how some B5 RS4's can command an 8 or 10k premium over others though?

Depends on Mileage, Colour and Spec as with all things! :)

You'll always pay more for the Red ones of course as there Proven to be fastest! :redrs4:

Thanks Guys,

There does seem to be a huge variation in asking price.

Does anyone have any views on who are reputable dealers?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Dave

Look at Brooners car. It's in your area(ish!) and if you can get a few grand off, then it would be at a reasonable price. It ticks all my boxes being enthusiast owned etc...

IMO £26k is too high

Thanks,

It looks a great car but as you say £26k is a bit steep. I can but give them a try.

Cheers

Dave

It is fully loaded though. I've only seen one other RS with curtain bags.

I'm thinking of selling mine. 2001 Avus Silver on a Y plate. It's fairly standard - just got uprated brakes (AP racing 6 pots on the front and Quattro GmbH discs on the rear), and the Milltek cat-back exhaust system. It's done 87K miles - had the cambelt, water-pump etc... done just before 80K miles along with lambda sensors and the rear brake upgrade. It's got FASH up until the 80K service which was done at QST since I didn't fancy paying the Audi labour rate for a labour intensive job and they couldn't source the rear brake upgrade for me. It's also looked after by one of the top Audi Techs at my local place so never misses a beat.

I'm looking for around £19.5k for her if I am to let her go (wedding costs are forcing me to think about a sale but only if it's worth it). If you're interested, pm me and I can give you some more details.
