Hi all,
I've just put down a holding deposit on a 2004 A4 Convertible (3.0l Auto). It's being sold by a dealer who took it on as a part exchange. The dealer specialises in prestige cars (Maseratis in particular).
Seems in good condition, but I've not taken it out for a test drive yet (will do at the weekend before completing the purchase). It has a full service history up 'til two years ago when the last owner purchased it. Apparently they maintained it themselves (and didn't keep receipts). Naturally that's a little bit of a red flag, but is reflected in the asking price. I've been telling myself that Audi's are known for the longevity of their engines (German engineering + 6 cylinders), but that's obviously no guarantee.
Still, seems a reasonable deal for £3.5k (Glass's estimates it as usually going for a fair bit more). Anything in particular I should look out for on my final inspection/ questions to ask before I commit?
Assuming I go ahead I look forward to becoming a part of this community :-)
Regards,
