Question Testing the water...

All,

I am considering doing the unthinkable and selling the car. I have no idea on price yet, but would like the benefit of your collective wisdom.

It's on 130,000 miles, and having just failed MOT (like I knew it would) on front suspension, I'm about to get upper and lower arms, ARB and probably tie-rod ends done (all OEM TRW stuff....yes, factory 20s, and different lower arms...).

Never touched the gearbox...and still running very sweetly indeed.

Cosmetically, it's pretty damn good, except a dented front passenger door that I believe can be done with a paintless repair ideally. Should I bother pre-sale?

Wheels were refurbed about 4 years ago in black chrome, but could do with another refurb, but I don't see the point when a new owner may want a different finish.

As you can see in my sig, it's a very sell speced late car, with the ESSENTIAL extended leather pack 3 with alcantara headlining. I'm not kidding when I say that the headlining completely transforms the inside of the car.

I paid top dollar (about £19k) for it from Oscar Goldman a little over 8 years ago at about 55k miles, and it has been a great servant. It has full Audi history on long life servicing. The original sport recaro seats haven't been sat on for 6 years!!

Opinions please? Should I invest any more in it before sale? Anyone interested? Need any more info? Realistic price?

Start the interrogation...

Ta,
Zip
