True, but I can take the hit on fuel economy when the price is so far below budget.

Funnily enough, I've seen 32 to the gallon on a 70 mile motorway trip in the C63, and regularly got high 20s

Mileage wouldn't bother me particularly. 95K in 4 years is some serious motorway munching presumably. Its probably quite tight and fresh. Not a great spec, and priced a bit optimistically but I bet its worth a look.

Shame last service was non-Audi - That would prevent any good will Audi help if it did develop an issue during your ownership....

I recon about £18k feels about right.

I can't imagine there being any Audi goodwill at 95k anyway, I'd take it to an independent too at that mileage, probably do a better job.

It's a lot of car for the money, need to think it through. Spec isn't much no, but I have to treat this car as a tool to get me from A to B in comfort, and it should be more than capable of that

If it had ACC I’d of bought it already! Used S6’s seem to have less spec than most D4s, I guess it’s the “lease from new” factor..... still, looks lovely

Browsing Autotrader again today and need to get this off my chest.

Why the flip do so many traders and private sellers not put up any photos of the interior???

It doesn't make me phone you up to ask, it makes me close the browser tab and move on the the next one
