Asking top money needs to see sunroof fixed,luggage cover sourced and presented impeccably.
If it hasn't had extensive suspension rebuild recently i'm finding it hard to justify this price??!
Speculator?

No offence to my brothers in arms up in Scotland, but with the much harsher weather and Winters you guys get up there, I wonder how the under-pinnings of the car are fairing? My Subi had 3 years up in the Glasgow area and it didn't do it any favours I'm sure. I appreciate that Audi galvanising is probably a whole load better than Subaru ( if indeed they bother with such things ) but cars that have done 100,000 miles up in the wild North will certainly have some wear issues I'd imagine, despite having a good service record.
Must be in a hurry to sell to have to rush out in such inclement weather to dash of a few pictures....

Agreed, the buying philosophy was always You do not view or buy a motor in the dark so what's the point of photographing in the dark

I presume you are taking the pi** as over 90,000 miles of the cars life was presumably spent around Stirling and Newcastle judging by the service records....or perhaps it was just taken to those places for servicing from Blackpool as the owner got a better deal there.

....and yes i do know that NCL is not in Scotland.....

Of course I was, just a bit of CA banter Frank

Although on any given weekend it does seem like The Scots have invaded Blackpool

Haha
Knew it wouldn't take long for my S6 to feature on classic Audi!
I take all your criticism seriously as it's very helpful on how a buyer would see my ad. So the S6 is booked in for a cambelt next week, a new motor is on it's way for the sunroof as it packed in a few months ago and the load cover has hopefully been sourced.
As for the pics yes it's a poor show but I'm never actually at home in the light during the week to take pics so this was after collection from the mot before it went back undercover into the garage. I will add better pics this weekend when I can take it out in the light. By the way I'm not asking anyone to view in the dark the sun does shine sometimes in blackpool haha. Viewings by the way are always welcome.
As for the suspension it had new shocks in 2008 and according to the mot history has had various suspension parts changed over the years.

I own several 90s cars and am selling a few to fund a more exotic car.
I have for sale also a 2 wheel drive Audi 100 turbo avant....
I own a vw golf G60 edition blue, lancia integrale, classic impreza, 205 mi16, 309 mi16. Most are kept undercover.

Sceptical with price??? That's on whether it sells or not but I am open to offers.....not quite as sceptical as the blue saloon.....

Any more advice welcomed

Many thanks
