I knew this car about 2 years ago @ 95000 ish miles. It was nice, very tight for its mileage.... I wouldnt be put off by the 112 on the clock...

I cant speak for the last 2 years, but it was a nice example back then...

It was originally run by the MD of one of the Audi franchises as his company motor, and if you look closely, its face is on the a8parts website, and always has been...

You see, not so ordinary now is it... Form a queue people.


.. now, about that sales commision....

Thanks for the comments.

The person I bought it from did mention you when I was buying it. He only did 3k miles in the 18 months he had it. Timing belt and gearbox service were arranged via yourself at York Audi I believe.

I got it with a shade under 94000 miles.

If it doesn't go, I'll just have to keep driving it. I have other cars so can do less miles in this one.

If only it was black and the wife didn't want to spend 4k on the garden

Life is unfair, hope it sells
