Hi
Hate seeing the car outside knowing it's got to go, and to be honest waiting till June just wont work, as to get the best price it might take a while to sell. So, it's official for sale...

My car's Specification:

89k miles
Bought it back in July 2009 with 84k miles
Avus / Hitech / Carbon
RS4 embossed front mats
Front centre armrest
BOSE + 6xCD changer
Bonnet re-sprayed in August 09 (stone chips)
One or two very minor scratches/chips visible on the bodywork, but I do mean minor.
Some wear on driver’s (door side) bolster but again, I'm being critical.
Factory Tinted windows from the B-Pillar back
OEM B5 RS4 Alloys (Hard Type) – 2x Excellent & 2x Good Condition
4x 10mm Hubcentric Wheel Spacers
Toyo Proxes T1-R Tyres – all very good tread left (c6mm)
Cambelt changed in Dec 09 (by MDM Technik)
Oil Service in Jan 10 (by MRC)
Camshaft check completed in Jan 10 (by MRC) – 1x cam changed with followers
Hotchkiss ARB set (fitted by MRC)
Scorpion Catback exhaust (fitted by MRC)
De-catted OEM DPs (fitted by MRC)
MRC Custom Map
MRC/ITG Air Filter c/w Airbox Mod (by MRC)
B7 RS4 Front Brakes c/w new pads – brackets have been machined so can accept RS6 discs if desired
Braided hoses to front brakes
OEM Rear Brakes
Health Check by MRC in July 09
1x New EGT Sensor in Aug 09 (by MRC)
2x New DVs in Aug 09 (by MRC)
1x New MAF in Aug 09 (by MRC)
2x New CV Boots (Both front wheels by MRC)

At the SRS Surrey Rolling Road - 447bhp and 440ft lbs.

The car's been seen by many of the forum members on here and is in fine shape. It's had sensible mods done and well cared for during my ownership. It was also shown in this month's Audi Driver Mag - that's got to add at least 10% the sale price hasn't it?! :D

It will be up at the MRC/SRS RR Day in April if anyone's interested in seeing it/going out for a wee test drive.

I'm looking for a forum member to buy it, not just because it's easier to do so, but I want someone to enjoy it and continue looking after it. I'm not interested in swapping the interior either before I get bombarded by PMs !

As it's in such good nick, with the right mods, I'll be looking for sensible offers, so please don't waste yours or my time by offering anything around £15k, as I wont be selling it that cheaply... Having checked Pistonheads the nearest car to mine is at £16.5k and £17k. I actually think mine's a better Specs too.

Might be interested in a p/x - PM me.

Cheers...

Very nice example, and can vouch for the condition and treatment this car's recieved.

Shame you're in this position Carl, good luck with the sale.

Cheers Pete. Unfortunately it has! Unless my numbers come in that is... Then it'd be a 3.0L monster!!

Had a few enquiries so far... Nothing too serious yet.

Do you have any interior pictures?
Does it have the OEM SatNav unit?

I dont actually have any interior shots, but I will take some tomorrow.
All clean and tidy, especially with the embossed mats!

No SatNav either. And to be honest, the RNS-D system is cr4p anyway. You'd be better off looking for an aftermarket unit, which look OEM anyway.

PM me if you're interested...

Cheers Sonny.
I'm facing a 14% pay cut in May, and bills to pay etc etc. That's the only reason. Would keep it indefinitely otherwise - with a few additional mods of course!

Feckin' recession...

So am looking to move to an S4 with will be even more modded than the RS4. I'd imagine it'll take a few weeks to shift as I'm after a fair (but some might say high) price. So all should be fine for the meet...
