Well when to pick up the Audi A4 Avant up from Derby today, was located at some posh Italian Cafe and hidden around the back in the yard, when the owner opened the gates and i first seen it was well impressed, looked loads better in person than on the pictures, Very well looked after, all belts, water pump done, new brakes, tyres and so on...... Audi A4 Avant - 3.0 V6 Quattro sport Manual 6 speed Full leather, Dual climate, etc etc Full History Only probs with it is its missing the tow eye cover from the front, No parcel shelf and the problem i had at first with the Leon, Boot unlocks when it wants, Going to sort these next week, Future plans Coilovers My RH Wheels Satin Audi rings front and back De badge rear Satin Grill surrounds Exhaust Purple Calipars Purple & Black engine cover Gear knob Carbon interior inserts Only thing im stuck on is, the colour of the car is like a charcole black, wanted to do the window trim (Chrome trim) and my wheel centres and dishes black, will i have to do them body coloured or will satin black centres and dishes look better.        Will get some pictures of the interior soon, On the way back from Derby when i picked the car up only had 40 Miles left in so a mile down the road before setting off i put £40 in the tank, took the guage to half way, when i got home still had 170 Miles left

Looks great, although missing tow eye cover? Has it been towed?

Looks great, lovely car and great engine. Enjoy. NotKenBlock said: Looks great, although missing tow eye cover? Has it been towed? More likely it was pinched.

Nice, the S badge would vanish very quickly. I'd body colour with some details satin.
