i know exactly what you mean i looked at a few before i eventualy bought mine. even though we all drive 8's there is so many personal touches to each others cars that make them unique. every time a drive mine i wonder why the hell i would want to sell it. I just love the car for many reason.

I must be out of my mind selling it

well i nearly sold mine and then i thought naaaa no point for what its worth i will run mine to the ground, i intend to keep it going for at least 200k+ and i know it will get there no problems if its maintained correctly it will provide many more years of happy motoring and why not do something that people have not done i have my rainy day fund starting soon bit by bit every week and i will at some point force more air into it sc or tc or at the very top end of the scale mod an rs6 lump and mate it up now theres an idea RS8 any one ......................

Recently my car has developed a small leak from the power steering so just to make sure everything is working ok i have sent it to a top audi specialist mechanic(ben) who is going to give it some TLC and make sure everything is working ok. The steering rack is to be refurbished and the hydraulic pipes are getting replaced. Also going to fit the rear view camara that i bought over a year ago

So now ready for sale again

This is it i have decided to ruduce my price to forum members only( not reduced on ebay, autotader or pistonheads) to £4995

All i need is a deposit and it secures the car

This price includes the private plate.

I will also throw in a rear view camara and a digital freeview tuner that i bought for it but not fitted.

I would like this car to be sold to a forum member so i can still see it at shows and meetings and maybe a trip to germany or two.

Just had the final bit of work done to it so i know it will be spot on for whoever buys it. ( servotronic steering rack fully refurbished and full safety inspection done).

If it dont sell to a forum member at this price then i will at GTI in it and i will be coming to germany in it

Can't believe this car's still for sale! I did think someone was buying it Darren - hence the work...?

Can I just say that this car is superb. I've done LOADS of work on her, most recently the steering rack seals and feed pipes and a few bits.
I love this car and she's in brilliant condition.

Really hope the sale happens soon, not that I want you to sell her mate cos she's LOVELY but I know how much you have your heart set on that other one!!

Anyway, if anyone wants a reference for this car - it's brilliant!! I would trust it implicitly and Darren's spent any money it ever needed (and some besides!!, don't we all).
