2005 AUDI (B6) S4 QUATTRO CABRIOLET

KEY FACTS

• A fast four-seat convertible, in an appealing colour scheme and offered for sale in good mechanical health.
• Under the bonnet is the 4.2-litre V8 engine, which produces 339bhp, coupled to a six-speed manual transmission and Audi’s famed Quattro all-wheel-drive system.
• Almost entirely original and unmodified, but with a Milltek exhaust system.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• Specified in the attractive hue of Sprint Blue over a black leather interior, this S4 is equipped with the Servotronic variable steering assistance system, sport suspension, heated and electrically adjustable seats with lumbar support, and self-adjusting headlights.
• It rides on the correct set of 18-inch, six-spoke alloy wheels.
• While it is almost entirely unmodified, the car has been fitted with a more vocal Milltek exhaust system, as well as upgraded front and rear brake discs.
• This handsome Cabriolet will be accompanied by its original owner’s manual and other handbooks contained in their correct wallet, as well as its stamped service book and invoices for its recent maintenance.
• The appropriate cherished registration ‘S4 FKV’ is included in the sale.

CONDITION

• No known bodywork damage.
• Believed to be completely original, the Sprint Blue paintwork is in good shape, with some minor signs of wear. These include light scuffs on both corners of the front bumper, small nicks on the rear driver’s-side wheel arch and a fine scratch on the driver’s door.
• The wheels have marks and kerb scuffs on their rims, and would benefit from refurbishment in due course.
• Inside, the black leather-trimmed cabin presents well, and while there is some minor wear and creasing on the front seats, this is in line with the car’s age and mileage.
• The rest of the interior trim is in good order, however there are fine scratches on the door pulls and the lower section of the glove box lid.
• There are no known electrical or mechanical faults, and while the seller notes that the clutch sensor ignition switch was removed prior to their ownership, this has not caused any issues.
• The car’s last MOT test was conducted on 23 December 2020 at 80,331 miles. This resulted in a pass after the windscreen wipers and front suspension arms were replaced, and with one advisory noting corrosion on the rear brake hose ferrules.

SERVICE HISTORY

• This Audi’s most recent routine maintenance was carried out in September 2020 at 78,641 miles by Warwick Car Company, who changed the engine oil and inspected the car’s mechanical components.
• Prior to this, it was serviced at 71,418 miles and 70,929 miles.
• During the seller’s two years of ownership the spark plugs, coil packs, front tyres and suspension arms have also been replaced.

SUMMARY

A relatively rare sight on the road today, the B6-generation Audi S4 Cabriolet is a particularly well-rounded performance convertible, which blends pace, comfort and everyday usability in one stylish package. Powered by a 4.2-litre V8 which is enhanced by a Milltek exhaust system, this example will make a fine companion for top-down summer drives, but could equally fill the role of year-round daily driver for its next owner.
