Default 1997 4.2 for sale spares or repairs £500

Sorry for first post on here being a for sale ad. Registered 3 weeks ago when I bought my a8. Always liked the look of the d2 and found one at and old garage that was being cleared. Struck a deal with the owner but unfortunately the car and the timing aren't right so I'm going to pass it on. Today is the first day I've been aloud to post on here so rather than the advice I've needed to get her running it needs a new home.

Everything I know:

1997 4.2 v8 Quattro
Private reg R45 KGP
Approx 105,000 miles
Last mot ran out end of 2011
Previous owner specialised in bodywork and bought it off someone after he reversed into something. Boot lid has been replaced as have rear lights. He didn't get round to finishing it so has dent in rear wing corner and whatever damage is under taped up bumper. Also has a dink in passenger door.
Full leather in great but dirty condition
Non starter due to fueling issue. Last thing he did was replace the pump and that works so possible relay? Used a new battery and it turns fine.

Unfortunately I don't have the time to throw at it right now and it takes up too much room at our storeage

Anything missing in pics (trim etc I probably have)
Contact me on 07966 974575 for more info
£500 Ono

I hate to poop on your parade but I'm led to belive that the forum sponser are a Brakers of A8s and selling one on here as spares or repairs may encourage unwanted attention from people after said parts ..

I would contact them first and speak to them

You can sell a car complete on here and advertise it as selling cheaply for spares or repair, but you can't break a car down into parts and sell many parts as it competes directly with the forum sponsors
