a bit leggy but it has a FASH apparently. They couldn't tell me if its had a clutch which would be vital I think.
Is there a list of options online anywhere as these seem fairly key too.

I think you need the VIN number to get that. But Ridgeway also run the Oxford Audi franchise, so I'm sure they can find out. ("select" is Ridgeways non-franchised used car sales operations).

From the photos, there's no sat nav or memory seats. And I *think* no drive select, so no sports diff.

It appears to be fitted with no options whatsoever. A stripper.

I had a feeling it was going to be poverty spec - it does have what looks like a nav screen to me but apparently not?

They've all got that screen, its just used for radio/ media in the lower spec models

Who me ?

Question for those in the know - do all VAG cars feature the options at build list in the boot area,under the carpet? if so ,looking at this on the vehicle might give more info .You'd need a makers code list though.

Should all have it but I've never found it terribly useful. All the online decoders seem to badly translate the option code from German so it's often unclear what it means.

Spotted this over Christmas as it looked cheap.

But, no spec whatsoever.

It's a shame that they all have the screen - sat av isn't something I'd need or particularly want but - I'd hate to have a screen that does very little.

Cheap S4 though.

It's essential : It's the only way of finding out the oil level!

Use the dipstick, which admittedly audi don't fit as standard but can be bought from your friendly parts counter for about a tenner.
A6 with this engine does have a dipstick.

Having a screen that only does half the things it could is like having a row of blanks where switches should be - like a poverty spec ford from the 1980s.

When I was younger my brother had a f reg fiesta.

I went to scrap yard and got a clock from a ghia and fag lighter.

Within ten mins I'd fitted to his

Ahhh them days upping spec after was easy.

Happy days.
