Very rarely, if ever, hear about 4.2 TDi's failing.

If the spec is good, and the price is right, 144K wouldn't concern me at all.
Thanks Ian. That sounds quite promising, I suspect most of the miles on the one I've been offered are motorway due to the adaptive cruise option. It'll come down to the price in the end so long as the service history is also good.

If you're into white cars then it wouldn't take much to de-chav it. Remove the window deflectors, stupid RSQ7 badges, swap the drug dealer wheels for some Audi ones etc.
I saw that one and was watching it but it sold very quickly. Nice spec too.

This is the colour, I think Shiraz Red?
