So quite a bit in fact, after just a minor collision!

Maybe i looked over it, but add airbags on the list (at least i see something like airbag behind the steeringwheel). Depending on how many went off, adds up quickly.
Also noticed the impact moved the side panels up and against the doors and even think the doors were hit.
IMHO....hit it with a stick and run away .
RIP

For some reason it doesn't tell anyone the mileage! 10/2018 Warranty implies Oct' 2015 car.

Now learnt it is 10/15 and it just has 18K 0n the clock.

It looks like an engine out job. You just can't take their word for it that is it superficial only. With the airbags going off and the forces going all the way through to the passenger side door I'd be extremely concerned that the tub is bent.
I personally wouldn't touch it and I guess a £20k repair from Audi.

Although it is a different animal, a friend of mine reversed his california-T into his house (don't ask). Rear quarter panel scratched and damaged. Repair bill: £35k.
