2006 AUDI (B7) RS4 AVANT

KEY FACTS

• A very desirable example of Audi’s high-performance estate, with relatively low mileage and in a sought-after colour and specification.
• Powered by a naturally aspirated 4.2-litre V8 engine, producing 414bhp and powering all four wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox.
• This RS4 was originally specified with many desirable options, has been well-cared for and is in fine mechanical and cosmetic order.
• The car has just four keepers from new.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• It finished in Daytona Grey Pearl Effect over black leather, sitting on its original twin seven-spoke 19-inch alloy wheels.
• The specified equipment includes: the sought-after heated Recaro ‘wingback’ leather seats with electrically-adjustable bolsters, carbon fibre inlays, a flat-bottom steering wheel, cruise control, front centre armrest, xenon headlights, upgraded Bose speakers, aluminium pedals, a boot storage net, and the rare ‘sunroof delete’ option.
• The only modification is that the original ‘Dynamic Ride Control’ suspension has been replaced by fully adjustable Bilstein B14 units.
• The car comes with its service book and handbook in the original leather holder, old MOTs and invoices, first aid kit, tyre inflator, and two keys.

CONDITION

• There is no known bodywork damage.
• The paintwork is in very good condition, with a few minor stone chips to the front bumper and two doors, and some small imperfections on the rear bumper.
• The interior is in excellent order, with only some minor creasing on the driver’s lower seat bolster and minor scuffing on the rear armrest. There is no notable wear to the gear lever and the markings are crisp on all buttons, which can be an issue on these cars.
• There are no known faults, mechanical or electrical.
• The most recent MOT test was in December 2020 at 66,112 miles, when the car passed first time and with no advisories recorded.
