Wanted RS4 B7 Avant ** low miles and owners **

[Joules]

Hi all,

Been away from the forum for a while but am looking for an RS4 B7 Avant with the following specs.

Prefer the colours Daytona or Sprint Blue (corrected)
Tech Pack or Bi-Xenon Adaptive Headlights plus the Auto switch options
Max 60,000 Miles
Max 1 previous owner (i.e. 2 total)
FSH
RS4 buckets
Must not be lowered - (I may have to fit chains to the front is used for the Alps)

I know this is a bit of a wish list but I am prepared to pay the right money for the right car.

Cheers

Joules

Do you mean Sprint Blue?

Nogaro Blue wasn't an option for the B7 RS4 and would have to of been an Exclusive order, don't think I've even seen a picture of a Nogaro Blue B7 RS4.

And why only 1 owner? I don't see the benefit of this and for a 9 or 10 year old car is seriously restricting your options.

How about this one? A few more miles but condition looks good:

Wrong colour ... Daytona is faster and nicer

Looks great but for the mileage and owners its too much when compared with others e.g. that black 1 owner with 48000 miles thats 24999 in autotrader. Although I'm not thinking of selling anytime soon if I'm going to sink big money into the car I have to think about future resale and 1 previous with low mileage is much better than 4 owners and over 80000 miles on the clock.

I will do about 4000 miles a year in the car.

I know its restrictive, I will take a 2 owner i.e. 1 previous. If I cannot get what I want that I might have to re-think but am prepared to pay for the right history.

Hi Joules,

This is my car, and funnily enough i actually just put the price down a bit as i thought afterwards that maybe it was a tad high.

Car really is in great condition and if you want to come an have a look then youre more than welcome too.

And why avant!?

Saloons are just as nice, and it's 'sorted':

I disagree about the owners. From my experience people tend to treat new cars better. When they've had a car for a while they stop treating it as well so lots of owners means they've had lots of people treating it just like the day they bought it, like a honeymoon period.
Oddly, I've had my RS4 for 6 years and probably treat it better now than when I bought it but that is the 1st time that has happened.

I think you have made my point in the end

The car I want will have been cherished, not a holiday fling. Sorry if that sounds cruel but a loving owner or two for 4 years each.

Got two kids and do the Alps once a year.... otherwise I would have the saloon.

The black vans are the fastest

GOod luck with search, there out there

One thing to bare in mind is that rear legroom is rather tight with Bucket Seats, so an older child might be giving you endless grief on long journeys.

Have you seen this one, you could retrofit Bucket seats if that was a deal breaker?
