I'm currently looking for an S6 and have found this one being sold by Ashton Auto Centre in Bristol.

http://www.ashtonautocentre.net/used-cars/audi-s6-...

Does anyone have any previous dealings or experience with this place? I'm based up in Manchester so it would be a waste of my time if I went down and the car was a dog. I've had a couple of chats with one of the salesmen, the service history sounds comprehensive, the car has just had an MOT and is HPI clear.

I have not dealt with that garage before, but it is not too far from my house. If it would help I may be able to pop by and take a look at the car for you. I don't know too much about S6s though.

Cheers for the offer. You could cast your eye over it if you're close. Just have a look at the bodywork, any stone chips, state of the wheels, whether there is any tread on the tyres and if they're budgets/branded.

If you do make the trip, I'll paypal you a few beer tokens!

I am in the vicinity too, looks a lovely sleeper but I don't like the phrase 'BRAKES DONE' for some reason.

Apprently, it's had new discs and pads for the MOT. Not sure why they're making a big song and dance about it as it'll be Pagid or Eicher specials from EuroCarParts.

Are you upset because I haven't made my inspection findings public or because I bought the car?

Very comprehensive write up. I'm still undecided. Need new boots and a bit of cosmetic but I suppose its reflected in the price. It's the cheapest S6 by £1500. Although the mileage is quite high too.

Still undecided.

I forgot to say that there is half a bag of boiled sweets in with spare wheel. Thought this may help you decide!

Were those sweets branded or budget? You know the score with those budget sweets, the first sign of liquid in your mouth and the back end goes...
