Hi, I'm testing the water with my Audi as I'm after something retro again!
I got the car around easter 2013 after searching for a good example and all I was finding was tatty pre facelifts, this came up for sale and was the best on going at the time. Ive had a prefacelift saloon with the same engine a few years ago.
Its a facelift 2000 Audi a4 2.8 30v v6 quattro avant, its on 169k the engine and trans is all good Ive never had a issue with either! no knocks, bangs or whines!
Mot is till march or april 2015, tax is up at the end of this month but will probs be putting 6 months on.
Its got 4 Toyo proxes t1r's with good tread, and a brand new spare in the boot, budget I think. The wheels have been refurbed in vw atlas grey, no curbing.
Ive replaced both the nearside upper arms as they had a bit of play in them, and all the bottom arms.
I did pads and disks on the front when I first got it, so about 15k on them, I also replaced the nearside calliper as it had rusted solid.
The oil and filter was changed at the same time, as was the coolant.
I did a outer front cv boot on it, cant remember which side...
It had a new clutch on just before I got it
I had the bonnet re painted cos it badly stone chipped.
I'm gpoing to change the oil soon too.
Also just replaced the first sections of exhaust on both sides as they were blowing.
There is stacks of paper work with it and the service book its stamped up to 144k in 2011 and its been serviced every year from new.
Its got most of the toys you would expect, 4 electric windows and sunroof, climate control (air con is nice and cold) audi symphony head unit with Bose speakers (the head unit has tape and cd and ive added a aux in for phones/ipod), it has the full auto check system and obc. all its missing is cruse control.
Now for the bad bits,
The nearside rear door window never worked until I caught the button and it went down and never came up! so I had to manually put it up and I left the motor disconnected so it didn't happen again. I have never looked in to why it doesn't work as I don't sit in the back that often and it never bothered me!
The trim is missing off the bottom of all the doors, typical b5 a4...
As for price, I'm after £800 ono, I would be up for swaps but it would have to be pre 1990 and german eg, 944, e30 bmw, corrado, audi 80 b2 ect....
any other questions pm or email me riklyons@gmail.com or text 07584 307 252, no calls please.
The car is in leeds, not far from jct 46/47 of the m1.
