Welcome back Rab. Love the car. :thumbs up:
 
Thanks Sandra , Hope your Keeping Well, Fingers Crossed for Shows and Meets 2021... Been a Quiet Year.
All good Thanks. Yes we need some shows and meets next year. :)
 
Hopefully this will change Rab.
 
Welcome back, Rab. I bought my pre-facelift (and first) Avant this May with 31k on the clock. Almost the opposite spec to yours - as my priority is ride quality not handling or stance.
It's an SE with optional Xenons. I've thrown on 17" wheels instead of the 20's. It has a bright beige interior with black dash and headlining, Audi Exclusive light wood trim, matching wood & leather steering wheel and a panoramic sunroof. I understand that the previous owner had it as weekend toy/leisure vehicle for his enjoyment only - so no electric seats nor any other fancy electronic extras.
When I got the car, it even had the matching Audi Exclusive floor mats as a modest £475 extra. They were not particularly high quality and had to be replaced with something aftermarket to spruce up the interior.
Altogether a weird, A8-ish combo of engine and trim that fits my current needs almost perfectly.

I hope the fact that it is not ULEZ compliant does not come back and bite me too badly. I had put the Reg Number into the London Emissions Checker prior to purchase and it came back negative - I would not have to pay. Three months later the result had changed - I would have to pay if necessary.

Thanks,
Get some pics up, Can't go wrong with an Avant in any Spec, I Had looked at 2x C8 both 50s (3.0ltr 285bhp high Spec with Air ride Virtual cockpit ect) But prefer the Look and shape of the C7/ C7.5, The Extras are a Black Edition Perk and it's a Ultra so UELZ Compliant and a £125 year road tax, Nice saving after £560 a year, After My Rs4 I wanted back to Fuel Economy where I can go for a Sunday Run and not spend £200 on V-power.
