Seems like a well priced example there matey.

Is it a manual you wanted or are you open to any transmission?

I saw this on Ebay.

I am not familiar with the 4.2 Lump. Maybe some other members can give their opinions on that engine.

The dealers advert is confusing, has details for an S5 spec, list it as 2011 (07) clearly it's not an S5 or 2011 car. Id want to know a lot more about the replacement engine, was it new from Audi or a refurbished unit from Audi or a third party. I understand Audi have no S4 engines left and are selling reconditioned engines now and some folk have had issues with them. As with any S4 check for cam chain rattle at start up and be aware of the potential big bills to sort it if its got a second hand as opposed to new engine at some stage ( a lot are fine, but it's a £5k bill to fix).

Thanks sportquattro - Reg Check states S5 also , The points raised are enough to walk away I think.. . I
get that feeling - to good ! Thanks for all advice ..

I think I would have done the same, there are good S4's out there and they are a fantastic car. I spent 4 months looking for one and eventually found the right one. A aftermarket warranty makes a lot of sense on these. Find a good S4 and I guarantee you will have a big grin on your face.

Just found yr post about buying a S4 - Is there any thing you have come across since with the S4 . .. the camchain is a big worry. I am finding alot more b7 Final Edition Diesel cabs than S4 cabs same level of trim equipment etc

i think you'll find this dealer has had a few " customer issues" with cars they are selling and some of his cars are not quite as they should be, from web feedback , a very long pole comes to mind in this instance.

and that reg number is for sale aswell.

Does it have to be an S4 cab mate?

My A4 Cab will be up for sale in the next couple of days, its really clean and tidy with 102,000 miles but a full history, I've had it for 3.5 years and have loved and cherished it. I was thinking £7k was about right.
