am looking to buy a 2006 a6 v10 looks like its been looked after part service history many new parts recently and recently carbon cleaned has a couple of issues prob control arms and poss actuator solenoid seals which seems an easy fix but my main concern and question to you out there in the know is the car has done 157,000 miles would I be a fool to buy the car with this milage on it....

As long as it's been well serviced then I shouldn't see it to be a problem. It sounds like it's cared for 🙂 but definitely find out why the owner is selling it. 

Cheers

Steve
