thanks guys

Yes appreciate its not a good time to be selling with covid and work for a lot of people.

On the flip side, something to enjoy whilst doing low miles.

Just filled the LPG tank ready for the new owner, just need to sell it lol

Very nice looking D3. Tempting proposition with the LPG conversion. Where is the filler for the LPG situated?

Only seen this

It’s at the back under rear bumper. In petrol cap would have been nicer but I’m used to it now and doesn’t bother me.

Car hasn’t been advertised much , been holding off eBay and autotrader but maybe an option going forward.

Storage may also. Can’t see these cars depreciating.

No interest folks?

Pains me to advertise and sell to a non enthusiast. Getting close to storage but such a waste to be sitting about

I'd hang onto it Chris if you can, can you sorn? I reckon 5 years time it'll be worth twice the price. Value of our cars is so low in the current climate, I would think it can only increase in value, a w12 on lpg, the w12 will be rarer soon as its phased out of the audi group so I hear due to manufacturer emissions compliance, can only make it more valuable

I know you're now selling to the great unwashed on Facebook, but worth listing all the plus points as trying to shift a 6.0 petrol in the current climate is difficult enough.

It has a solar sunroof. Is it just the rear blind, or does it have the side blinds as well (and are they electric?). It's LPG, so show the boot and the tank (some people like me would want to know the location of the tank - i.e. toroidal tank or tank across the back). Show the filler location. Does it have things like power boot or soft close doors?

Would reword the bit about the wheel arch scrape, as that sticks out to me (but maybe that's just the way my mind works). i.e. if it's an "easy fix" then why not do it yourself, as in the current condition it's a negative point and therefore a bargaining chip for a buyer. Maybe show a photo of the scrape. I know you don't want to spend more money on it as you're trying to sell it, but would it be worth getting a quote from someone to see how much it would cost to repair.

The MMI screen sticking is a gears issue. The gears are cheap and if you already do work on your cars, it's worth a hour or two to repair. Another bargaining chip for a buyer.
