  1. It’s with a heathy heart the time has come to sell my pride and joy due to our new arrival, I have owned the car for a year and a half and loved every minute, it’s a hell of a car for the money considering new it was 58k! Has the usual S6 refinements heated Recaro half leather and alcantara seats, Bose sound system and 6 disc changer, has the optional extra carbon fibre inserts, dual climate control, 335bhp 4.2l V8 coupled with the legendary Quattro system and combined makes the car very nippy coming out the corners even know it’s a family wagon it surprises a lot of people, the car has loads of service history and has been very well looked after and cared for, pervious owner had a RS6 steering wheel fitted (do have the original to go with the car) and a stainless steel cat back exhaust system which I my say sounds epic! With in the time iv owed the car iv done the following work. New battery Front discs Brembo pads all round Both front window regulators Both front door latches Headlight levelling sensor NGK iridium spark plugs K n N panel filter Wheels acid dipped and painted ( couple of paint chips now sadly but nothing a touch up pen won’t sort ) 4 New Toyo Proxes sport tyres done no more than 150miles! Also have a fair few spares to go with the car at the right price! Being registered in 2000 this means that it falls short of the higher car tax bracket too so only £270 a year rather than the £330 Over all the car is in great condition especially being nearly 21 years old but like any old car there is the odd car park ding, the private plate on the car will come with as it means nothing to me but it’s been valued at £400 if you don’t like it but personally it puts a special touch to such a iconic luxury car that is only going up in value, very occasionally the car will miss fire for a couple of seconds then clears so I plugged the car into vag com and the code it throws up is 17549 - Load Calculation Cross Check: Implausible Value intermittent. Which could be a manifold vacuum line leak or a failing maf sensor so either way a cheap n easy fix for someone, I just don’t have the time to do it my self before selling the car with having a new born to look after, this in mind iv price the car accordingly to current market value and the fault so if you want to own a clean tidy future classic at a fair price look no further. £2850 ovno Mike 07531300434
  2. Iv got loads of spares including a full set of black seat belts pm me bud
  3. Hi I had the same problem with having to flatten back the yellow film to get the car through it’s mot every year, a friend told me that you can get them re lacquered so I went to a local body shop guy I know and he done exactly that and they are as good as new and saved me £££s and this is a recent picture of my car and it was a year ago they were re lacquered and there still as good as new 😊
  4. Thanks for the reply, any increase in fuel consumption would be a bonus 😂
  5. Bose sound system Heated half leather Cool box in the glove box (factory optional extra) Cruise control Wheels recently refurbished Two keys Full stamped service history Mot August 2020 Bad bits all cars have them! Parking sensors are intermittent, Couple of marks on front bumper, Rear near side quarter panel the lacquer has started crazing as pictured, Bulb light on dash won’t go out even know there’s no bulbs blown, as far as I’m aware there wasn’t may avant 1.8t s lines made but even rarer with the option to be Quattro Audi’s world renowned four wheel drive system, I honestly think you will be hard pushed to find another one for this price in this condition and mileage iv found a similar one one eBay but it’s the 163bhp and in a poor condition indeed for £2795. £2650 Ono
  6. Hi was just wondering if anyone has had there S6 remapped? If so what kind of gains they have seen and if it’s worth getting done? Thanks
