Default Need everybody's opinion.. newbie here!

Hey all! I need all your experts opinion on this car. I'm seriously thinking of buying this. But my g/f is giving me all bad feedback on the mileage. I've never own an Audi before.. just looking to see what I'm in for if I get it.


It's got 88,000 miles. The guy orginally wanted $17,000 but dropped it to $13,500. It's a Nogaro Blue S4 withsport package. Blue suede/black leather interior. ECU reflashed with an APR chip. Timing belt was changed at 60K.




What do you guys think?

Dam, that is a nice looking B5.

88k is nothing to worry about. Just ask if the timing belt has been done yet, if not, it will need to be done soon. Then you might also be looking at brake pads & tie rods replacement.

Other then that, read the FAW sticky, & it will answers most of your questions.

Clutch replacement will be about 1K if not already done. Pretty good deal with timing already done. It wasn't due until 90k. 88k is a baby for a German car.

I'd probably stick with your girlfriends opinion....she is probably right. I mean they all know so much about cars and take such good care of them, it's hard to not believe everything they say.
