RS4 B5 WANTED

[JesseJonesJackson]

After months of toying with buying a B7 RS4 I've finally had to admit I just can't afford one at the moment. There are however 2 postive outcomes to my unfortunate situation, the first being the pita-pater of tiny feet, and the second is that I am now looking for 1 of the 400 B5 RS4 prowling the UK backroads.

I know its a bit of a cliche but I'm only interested in a fully maintained car with a proven history. I dont have any issues if its not standard, but it must have the receipts to evidence its life.

I've looked at a couple already and its saddens me to say they were 'tired'. I couldn't really beleive these jems had been left to deteriorate. I guess some people just dont know.

Anyway, enough of the rant, back to business.

If you've got an B5 RS4, its not priced over 18k, its down under 80K, its got all the history, its not in need over a major service in the next 100 miles, both keys, a sunroof (preferable), sorry but it will keep the misses happy, then please let me know. I have the funds waiting for the right car. Oh yes, just one more thing, I know some of you love the white interiors, thats fine, but its really not my thing so if its white...its not me thanks.

Thanks for reading ...

I've seen a Y plated RS4 in Navy Blue......is that a factory colour? Just I've never seen an RS4 in navy. I know iknow it probably me lack of knowledge, but I though Noggy was the only Blue.

JJJ, where are you based?

I've got just the car but 18k is a tad too low for me. Hrm

[graemep]

There were at least two other blues other than noggy - the light Denim (think only 2-3 cars), and the Santorini which is maybe the 'navy' mentioned but again only a few.
