My much loved a4 1.8t, due to family more children means bigger car. i've bought a 6 seater now and the a4 hardly gets used. i start it up regularly and take it down the road and back. thats all i can do as we all travel together and space wise i cannot get to many people in the car hence the 6 seater.

Audio

Alpine cd/mp3 player 60x4 watts very good- this was only put it due to previous owner didnt even give me the original. jbl 4 channel amp was used with subwoofer 15" but taken out for shopping space. can provide the sub and amp for the right price. amp wires will remain in and are not cheap wires either. Bose speakers
Tinted Windows

Interior

Absolutely Clean Leather Seats and carpet and dash, usual slight wear on door handles which you get as its a 51 plate car.

Willkommen to the forums


sounds like that car may have been well taken care of and modified properly. be sure to spend some time here looking around in the A4 section. pay attention to the stickies. that should get you started with the kinds of things you should be looking for, and what you might want to avoid. keep in mind that any modifications that change the way the car is "designed" to operate, may have a negative impact on reliability, in addition to putting other stress on the mechanicals

good luck

have fun
