Right, looks like I'll be getting shut of this soon. Just after opinions of how is best to sell it.

I have my bbs reps on at the minute, they have corroded a bit so I had the lips painted instead of polished. They look ok but not perfect, however I could do to take the tyres from these for the new car.

So I have the standard 17" wheels that I could put on but they need a set of tyres also..

Then suspension, it's on coil overs which have been on since I got it so at least 5 years... But I have all the standard shit in the garage.

Basically do people think its best going totally standard for a wider market? It's fairly well looked after but it is 10 years old so bodywork etc is showing its age so I'll have to go on the cheap side I'd imagine. I know modifications don't add value etc... Just looking for opinions really.


I would put the car back to standard personally, sell the mods as you'll get more money for it all that way. At least, that's what I've found in my experience.

Looks nice in the pics and they are quite rare with that kind of mileage now.

Seen quite a few people on Audi-Sport buying cheap ones the last 6 months and having no end of problems

Hope it sells

Got a Denison ice link Ian, was meant to keep the cd changer functional but it never worked? No idea why but the iPod connection itself works fine, hard to navigate with the stereo though as its probably a bit old to be controlling an iPod.

fair enough - just basing it on experience rather than anything else

Although Imola is more rare is very hit and miss for people but may carry a slight premium

Maybe not but it's better to start high than go in too low and wish you asked for more. I think based on the ones on ph, taking age/spec/mileage into consideration it's a fair price and it shouldn't need any money spent for a good long time.

Had an email first thing this morning with someone wanting to view it, it's not sold by any means but obviously there is interest if it's a legit buyer.
