Default Wanted: A8 QS

Currently have an A8 QS pre-facelift in what I believe is mica green.
Snapped a bolt into the gearbox and cant get it out so instead of breaking the car I am wanting to pick up another A8 QS, ideally in the same colour - doubt it will happen - use my decent parts, interior, suspension, wheels etc on the new car and break the rest of the car and store it for myself and sell what I dont need.

So yeah, if anyone knows of any nice A8 QS for sale give me a shout!

Would love to upgrade to a facelift S8 but it would make a lot of the parts I have useless!

another reason for wanting to stick with an early a8 is for the 4 speed box!
Personally think they are bulletproof (unless you snap bolts into them) and not got much trust in the 5speed!

You can have the bolt removed and the thread helicoiled - much cheaper than forking out for a new motor and the hassle of swapping bits over.
