Only after the water in the rear. I decided to do a bit of digging confirmed by the previous owner today.

I'd be checking the panel/fuel flap gaps with a fine tooth comb. If it doesn't stack align up, then return it under the 30 day AUC scheme.

It looks perfect around the fuel cap. Just a poorly fitted rear light unit. Will have a close look tomorrow.

Water leak hopefully sorted. Audi removed virtually all the boot to find one grommet totally missing and another holding the rear light unit hanging by a thread. Basically a lazy body Shop who did the rear quarter. I will do a bit of digging and name and shame them save others having similar issues.
