Yeah I was close to a Lava grey one but dealers wouldn't budge the figures enough.

Buy the Vixxer then. Make me an offer!!

Sorry yeh. Just looked in classifieds. That is cheap considering mods, mileage and the year wish I had the cash.

Thers 2 reds. A non metallic red and then Misano red which is metallic. I'd consider one in Misano but the wife hates red on big cars, so atm its a no go.

different injectors, turbo and I believe fuel pumps

Also rail pressure is different so its noiser

Believe me I have heard it myself and the dealers also confirm this

Doesnt make it a bad engine I just prefer the drive of a 143

Also the reason not many 170's are around is due to emissions and tax benefits - most opt for the lower emission cars i.e company car drivers

Out of your list it'd be either Ibis or Misano. But not on your list & what I'd go for is Monza Silver pearlescent. I think Misano and Monza are S-line only colours too so you won't see them on non S-line A4's.

http://usedcars.audi.co.uk/carview.aspx?id=601048809

Misano is a pearlescent too BTW.

Looks like I may have one in Monza. Dealership just finalising figures.
59 plate....£7k miles. Special Edition so 19"s and B&O music system.

Wasn't one of my top choice colours but you've got to compramise somewhere.

Awesome. Like I said that's probably my favourite colour on the A4. Bit more interesting than straight silver but not a complete pig for showing up dirt like black is!

The B&O stereo will be amazing! I've got the Bose one in mine and that's quite good but the A4's are even better.

Mine used to use 1 litre of oil about every 7,000 miles up until its 1st service at 18k. Then after that it didn't use any between then and its 2nd service at 36k. Something must of bed in somewhere along the line.
