Slightly north of £44K would be my guess

I possibly know of the first avant to meet its death. The owner was T boned at a junction in London. The airbags went off, the engine oil ignited, the whole car went up- WRITE OFF.

I only know about this as his son has emailed me about possibly buying mine as a replacement rather than waiting 6-8 months

It's a Norwich Union site - I expect it'll make about £30k.

Take it thats a trade only site then?bummer!

Yep, sure is. As long as you're in the motor trade then you can apply - it was a right pain to get sorted IIRC.

Still under £20k and an hour to go!

Do your cars have VINs in the UK? If so, you may want to post the VINs on the RS4 VIN registry so potential owners can check to see if they are buying these wrecks.

No thanks.......... we have our own register here on the site, as a sticky in the B5 RS4forum, run by our own JohnW, may I respectfully suggest other owners dont impart their info to this site...

Apologies. I was not aware of the register on this site.

How was my guestimate?
