    S2 Avant,

    ****** now listed on ebay ******
    http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/191280562777?nav=SEARCH

    Evening all, I am selling my recent purchase already along with my other car a R32 as I have decided that I want to get an RS4 B5 and only cherish one car as I dont have to commute more than 4 miles so it seems a waste.

    Anyway it came from a member on here to Monkeymagic a few months ago and it was rescued and I bought it from him. It has extensive history in the form of a large file to read. About a year and a half ago it had service and cambelt changed, 996 callipers and A8 discs fitted, KW V1 coilovers and a Miltek cat back exhaust. The turbo then failed and it sat garaged until Steve got it. I loved the look of it so after the turbo was changed, cats put back on and a new battery I bought it from him. Since then I have changed the mfts for genuine as it failed, an intercooler of this forum as that leaked, I then dyed the tired grey leather black, added the leather to the door cards and also changed the wood to carbon inlay with the original blue fleck. The fuel basket also failed and this was changed and then the thermostat and coolant for good measure. It now runs sweet and pulls like a train putting a great big smile on my face, no rattles, knocks or bangs when driven. 140k.

    Its taxed till the end of the year and mot till June 2015, new tyres all round. I will let the pictures speak for the car. I have only advertised it on here as I would like it to go to a forum member. £5600, any questions please call Jim 07841 207 297 or feel free to PM me or post on here.

          Jim you are mad. You spent 3 years trying to convince me to sell my coupe to you then I hand you a mint Avant for a respectable price, youve owned it a month ironed out a few niggles and you are selling it.
          You will regret it.!!! anyway GLWS. I keep wanting to buy it back as Its such a good one.

          Guys having spent many hours on this car it is an excellent example so someone will bag a cracker.

            I may be wrong, but I think it was "Gene and Bolly" who expressed an interest in the car before I sold it to you jim. I believe he is in the market for a UR S6 now but may be worth contacting him.

              That would surprise me if gene and bolly wanted it just as much as i am surprised this is already for sale.Totally surprised!........ No Craig is a URS6 man now or so it seams.

                Oh well, I cant recall who it was who was interested now. I too am surprised at Jim for selling what is really a near perfect example of a rare car. The boy does not know what he wants! ha ha He'll get an RS4 and find a reason to sell it.

                  No no,it could have been gene and bolly but since then he has bought an S6 saloon and has fallen in love literally.He is selling his UR Quattro and 90 20v and wants to concentrate on the C4 s6 at least thats as far as i know. Hope the car finds a good home!

                    bang on the money, mark! i've just got the old tub running nicely now with that new n75 solenoid valve and am totally hooked on the s6.

                    hopefully sales of the 90 and the ur quattro will see a really nice example of a tub in my stable shortly . .

                      Me hopes so too, and when you do, make sure you give me the details and pictures if the beast ASAP! The intrigue and anticipation is killing me

                          This is going on to ebay with a 99p auction sat lunchtime to see what happens. Not bothering with a reserve as it put people off

                              Yeah, be careful with that. Decent ebay sellers can be robbed quite easily. I would put it on a classified advert. Same coverage but no fees to pay if/when it sells.
