Any background would be appreciated. Thanks..

Yep, it was mine. What do you want to know?

I bought it from Crewe June 2013, I've parted with it as I am waiting for an RS6 and Audi have put me in a car until it arrives.

Ah excellent! I had a hunch it may have been owned by a forum member. I only ask as I'm tempted to go for it - looks to be a tidy example!

I only have two questions really - did you own it from new? Does it have the sports pack? (KL audi report that it does but the exhaust tips are aluminium so my little head is confused). TIA.

Congrats on the impending RS6

No, not from new, there was a mega waiting time when I was looking and this was the best car. It was used by dealer group director, it wasn't a demonstrator. And this was clear when I looked at it, no one had sat in anything but the driver's seat - he even left his Cartier glasses behind for me!

It does not have sports exhaust, hence the shiny tips. It was spec'd with all parts of the sports pack bar the exhaust. Back in those days you had to cough up 2k for the 20" wheels, not so now of course.

It's tidy, not wanted for anything, not that it's needed anything, and has had the usual foam/two bucket/wool mitt pampering .

It does have a tracker fitted, I don't think that's in the spec.

I would also add that KL will look after you.

doodlebug - thanks a lot - that's really helpful. I'm talking to KL to see if there's a deal there.

I'm not convinced in makes sense (for me anyway) to invest the money in a brand new B8 as the platform is on the way out. Used & well looked after could be just the tonic.

You're welcome.

You'll only ever got positive comments on Kl audi in here
Along with Bath Audi, they're pretty well regarded (although Bath Audi have lost Martyn Jones, who was their RS guy)

Where did Martyn go?
