Full Service History- main dealer/independent specialist (service book is present and fully stamped)

I have owned this car for nearly 7 years. It’s been an absolute joy to own and has been an incredibly reliable daily. It’s a truly stunning factory special order colour and is one of the rarest colours. It starts first time, every time and drives as it should. It has wanted for nothing during my ownership and has been serviced annually at Badger 5. Everything that has needed doing, has been done. It is in superb condition, with great bodywork (has the odd stone chip and age-related mark) and interior.

The roof rails and door blades are completely free of rust. It had a remap when I bought it- the previous owner said it was Revo, although I have no paperwork. Other than that, the only other modifications are: Badger 5 TIP & twin cone filter (I still have the original TIP & airbox as well), Powerflex rear axle bushes (a massive improvement!), R32/TT wishbone bushes and N249 delete (I still have the original pipework to reverse this, if required), BBS 18” optional extra TT split rim wheels (£3000 option). The car has a fully-working Bose stereo system, with sub-woofer (in boot), 6 X CD Changer and tape deck. The leather seats are in great condition and all the electrics work perfectly. Even the cup holder works!

It has 2 keys and the original Audi code tag and plastic key.

I had it MOT’d the other day and the only advisories were for 3 tyres, which are going to be replaced with Toyo’s on the 5th September.

I also have it booked in for a service and cambelt/water pump change at Badger 5 on 9th Sep. I would be happy to adjust the price accordingly, should someone want to get this done themselves.

During my ownership of nearly 7 years, it has covered around 33K (under 5K a year). The following jobs have all been done on the car, during my ownership:

New clutch

New ball joints, wishbone bushes, drop-links etc.

New front ARB

New alternator

New discs and pads when required

4-wheel alignment

Cambelt/water pump

Change gearbox oil

Change rear diff oil

Change haldex oil & filter

Change brake fluid

Replacement headlight switch

I have a folder full of receipts

Bad Points

There was a very small area of bubbling on the front o/s arch, which I rubbed down and patched up (see pic)

Wheels are perfectly presentable, but would benefit from a refurb

A couple of the aircon buttons have the usual wear to the soft touch plastic

All in all, this car has been absolutely brilliant- the best car I have owned by a country mile.

Please no time wasters!
