In your wanted spec you've put black inlays, memory seats and mirrors, etc but the one you linked has buckets (so no memory on anything) and ally inlays?

Make a list of things you want and score them 1-10.
Ie,
avant 10
Grey 10
Black optics 8
Fbsw 6
Bose 4
Etc

Then pick a number that is what you'll accept and find cars above that. Ie a compromise car that scores 35 (or whatever).

Btw, you can email audi customer services and ask them for the history of any car. This is really handy in knowing if people are telling porkies with history.

Ross' idea of spec scoring is a good idea aswell. You didnt mention mileage, but your budget suggests it will he a higher miler. 17 is definitely the bottom of anything decent,

Daytona avants are usually at the higher end of the price spectrum

GL with your search!

^ The Audi spec service is a good 'guide' into services, but sometimes the actual dealer logs it under another item, for example if there is a repair, warranty or any other work done at the time.

On an rs4 not so much. But on an rs6 you do for obvious reasons.
