I am now selling this car.

LWB 4.2 V8 with the benifit of GAS

This car needs some TLC hence price but with some love will be a great car.
Looking for about £5600 open to offers

I started to restore this car so far it has had the follwing
Referbished altinator old one was wining a tad

new discs and pads on rear 300miles ago
Full cambelt and water pump ect
New VVT units in the heads
Full service including plugs
4 wheel laser alignment
Exterior paint has been flatted back and restored its got a lovely shine on it now.

All the Usual A8 refinements
Good bits :

Double glazing
Fingerprint recognition
Keyless entry stop start ect
Ambiant lighting package
Extended leather pack2
Quad zone climate control
Platinum grey leather
Heated seats all round
Factory tinted windows
Privacy blinds in the rear
adaptive xenon lights

Adaptive air suspension
Rear seat lumbar support
Descreet lpg filler
90L LPG tank in the boot.
On average I get the equivalent of 48mpg on motorway and town driving about 38mpg still very good in my opinion.


Bad bits :
Yes every car has them sadly I was my goal to finish this car off but I have had another offer that I can not refuse.

A few scratches hear and there . You dont really see them from a far.

Also the keyless entry has stoped working ive checked it vac com said there is no communication to the antenna .. I think they are about £20 on ebay but no idea where its located to change it.

The driverside rear blind needs a new plastic brace. It tucks away and is tidy ect but wont stay up without the plastic. Tps can order them from Germany and are £28 .. expensive for a peice of plastic but a bug I wanted to fix
For some reason the arm rest handel has come off so it dose not click closed so when you lift it things fall out :s
The handels and springs are there but needs putting back together.

ABS module needs to be sent off to have the ecu fixed.

This is £48+vat
Plus labour to remove and reinstall.
It causes an intermittent fault where the light comes on the dash and it makes the power steering go very light. (Speed assisted power steering )

The pad warning light is on. I have been told you have to input the thickness of the new pads via vag com (I have not done this ) there for it thinks the pads are low.

Recently acquired front bumper scuff and marks. Quoted £270 to fix

it could do with some new arch liners on the front as they have seen better days

all the inperfections were on my list of
to doos but like I said I have had an offer I cant refuse so she must go.

119k miles used daily so please bear in mind it may change.

Please also note the car will be sold with 19" 20spoke wheels a full set of 5
Unless your willing to pay for the genuine final addition 20 inch x 9j wheels on the pictures

We never did get around to doing anything with the lower grills.

I was still awaiting roberto on the bumper but he was not well at the time. I dare say it will take a long time to sell anyway
