already over £16k !! but apparently it has got 400hp

400bhp is bull crap
also, u gotta worry bout replicas....my suspicion is they are accident damage and so its not that much more to replace the panels with RS ones vs. normal

Wow .. must be a amazing car .. has colour changing paint as well ...

Black


Blue

Look in the feedback, didn't this already sell for £19k 30 June? Or was that when he brought it?

That's the best pearl flip paint job I've ever seen! If you look at it in a different angle, even the paint on the wheels and the headlight units change too!

If the ad is stating that it is selling in black, then why has the blue one got the later edition daylight running lights. Surely if you were selling the car you would want the latest revision of headlights on it to help sell the car, unless you stuffed them into a wall!

Just out of interest, has anyone phone the seller? I dare say he want's payment up front in used non-sequential bills posted to a Nigerian post office box before the car is shipped to your address by his private shipping company. Or is this just me being cynical.

It says "HI, I ALSO HAVE A AUDI RS4 REPLICA IN BLUE COMING SOON..............."

So I guess black one sold in June and this is an add for a blue one

[MICALEE]

For my pennies worth, is the blue one not just for a comparison? (albeit different lights)

[elmo]

I don't see the point!

If it's an 04 plate, isn't this a B6 made to look like a B7? Can you fit B7 RS4 panels to a B6? I would have thought that inner wings and panel gaps would be different.

The advert also says that it has cost over £10K to do. Surely they can't be making money in this venture when you figure in the cost of the original car plus the conversion cost and then sell it for only £16-19K. However, from the posts above this seems to be the second time they have done this!

It all seems a little strange to me, but if they enjoy that kind of thing then good luck to them.

Maybe this will answer some questions - Some guy in Norway has done a full body conversion from a B6 A4 to an RS4 B7. All parts are from Audi (i think) So no dodgy looking bodykits.

After reading the thread, he did it cos of the cost of RS4's in Norway. He gives an example of an Audi RS4 2007, 18000 km. costing kr. 1.339.000 - thats £136,519!!

its prob an fooked B6 S4 that been in an accident....then he's got the RS 4 panels off a salavage, and had a dodgy paint job, then he's making a few k profit on resale

[frazered]

think the seller is on here - looks like a small business he is running there looking across the items being bought to do the conversions?
