Default Feeler - High spec 2010 A8 4.2 TDI D4

Baby number 2 doesn't travel light, so I am looking at a high spec Q7. PX offer was low, so thought I'd gauge any interest before closing the deal.....

Spec is as follows:
A8 SE 4.2 TDI quattro
Metallic Paint - Ice Silver
Comfort Seats, Perforated Valcona Leather
Seat ventilation and massage function for front seats
Heated rear seats
Comfort headrests for rear seats
Vavona wood inlays
Aluminium lower inlays
Extended Leather package
Alcantara Headliner
20" 'Parallel spoke' forged alloy wheels
Sports Air suspension
quattro Sports Differential
Mobile high prep + privacy handset
6 CD/DVD changer
Bose Surround Sound
Park advanced - Front and rear with camera
Audi Assist package - Adaptive Cruise Control, Side Assist + Pre-sense Plus
Night vision assistant
Adaptive headlights with high beam assist
Dynamic steering
Advanced key
Deluxe 4 zone climate
Electric blind rear window and side windows
Homelink
Through load facility
Electric Solar Sunroof
Power operated boot
Towbar - electrically folding
3-spoke steering wheel
Total list cost from new £94,080

In good condition, no faults or issues. Full main dealer service history. Has had all common issues attended to including sports diff & secondary water pump - plus it was fitted with a new MMI unit by the dealers to enable "3G" mobile access!

Pictures from when I bought it - before it had been prepped! I will take new pics if anyone is interested, but it is spotless!

Out of interest, what does the mileage and service history look like? How much are you looking for?

So much car for the money.

I bet the p/x value was verging on offensive, but this should sell privately with ease ?

D4 prices have fallen like lead balloons. Even the S8 has.

But, to be fair, that's the whole car market as a whole. So much leasing going on now, fewer and fewer car buyers out there with any interest in stumping up capital to buy a car outright any more.

The cheapest 4.2tdi on the auto trader at present is this 100k miler, with faults and minor impact damage at £15,500......

Mine is 100% working, low mileage, full main dealer history, so hopefully I can find a buyer! I’m not in need of the cash to buy the Q7, but drive space and NCD is at a premium with too many cars

I now have a buyer lined up at a price I'm happy with - subject to me closing the Q7 deal.

D2 -> D3 -> D4.... Will feel weird not having an 8

How much did you get if I may ask, as I'm thinking of putting mine up for sale soon?
It's got more spec that yours did but at least would give me an idea.

Initial trade in price (main dealer) was £10,750, this was upped significantly and underwritten by another trader. In the end I sold it to a colleague for ~£15k - maybe I could have got more, but I was happy to let it go for that. Niche car, tend to either sell in a week or sit for months waiting for the right buyer - I was happy to take the former option!

Depreciation of ~4k a year wasn't that bad I guess
