Question Expert Advise Needed!

Hey everyone! Hopefully will be a regular on here soon. I possibly might be getting a 99 a4 1.8t, stick, w/ 187,000 miles for a trade for my yfz 450. From the pics, the car looks to be in pretty good shape inside and out. Going to check it out this week. Question is, how many miles are you guys/gals seeing out of these? He received it from his aunt a yr ago and says he has all documents of work that was done. The clutch, timing belt and thermostat was just replaced 5k miles ago.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!



Paul

192,7XX as mine sits now

Is it Quattro AWD?

I'd wonder why he's selling if he just dumped money into it so recently

Find out about the timing job - was it just the belt that was changed? If so, get ready to year it all apart again and do the job right.
