I'm looking for one.

Did you see this sprint blue car advertised as looks a fair comparison on paper but yours is priced a lot higher. I'm going to contact this one on my return.

wdagraca's car looks preferable in my opinion and can probably justify the price.

Can't comment on the mechanical worthiness but know which I would favour.

[wdagraca]

I would Shop around too if I was you, this is my second RS4 and I know what a good one is worth.

[Bund]

So you know the other car advertised?

I've seen and driven/been in a couple so far but no where close to highly educated on the car so could you point out why wda car justifys the difference please in your eyes?

[wdagraca]

I just know that there is a reason some RS4's are advertised for 10k and some for 25k, as a consumer you decide.

[SimonS4MTM]

Clear indicators. Original colour wheels. Original painted calipers. Carbon interior trim. Auto lights, wipers and dimming rear view mirror. Most of which is personal preference and does not reflect the condition

Cheers, now you are thorough!! see I was looking at two sprint blue cars, cheaper one with less miles, both on coilovers, didn't notice trim but I like both and I'd prefer with a sunroof.

The 10k and 25k cars are different for many reasons and not like for like on any of the major considerations.

I'm sure they're both great cars.

Wda I did mail you back.

Wda I did mail you back.

As long as you enter into a car purchase with your eyes open and know what to look for you come out on top.
I'm having trouble with private message at the moment, I know cars but not so good with internet stuff...

Forgot to mention, the car is booked in for a service at Norwich Audi this Thursday.
