THIS CAR HAS NOW BEEN SOLD
Due to the impending arrival of a company car, and to stop me owning 4 cars, I am reluctantly selling my S6 Avant which I bought in May 2015. Current mileage is 138,500 with full service history, most recently at Audi Stratford upon Avon. 8,000 miles until next service due.
I scoured the market for a good while before opting for this particular car, you will find a couple cheaper but you get what you pay for. I paid top money for it as I did not want it to be something that was in and out of the garage every 10 minutes as it has been my primary business vehicle (I have been self employed until this month). The car was previously run by the Director of an Engineering company which I thought was a pretty good sign, he covered c.40,000 miles in 2 years and spent considerable amounts to keep this car in good shape.
Since I purchased the car (from a dealer) I have spent absolutely nothing on the car other than fuel, insurance and road tax, that’s how good it has been to me in the 4,000 miles or so miles covered, it has been incredibly reliable.
Production of the C5 S6 ended in 2004 and this particular car is therefore the one to have, the spec on this car includes:
The car has had almost £5,000 spent on it in the last 3 years including a full cambelt and water pump, thermostat change by and Audi main dealer. It has 4 matching Continental Sport tyres that have covered c.6,000 miles and have mountains of tread left. I was informed by the previous owner that the front shocks have been replaced at 130,000 miles at the Audi Main dealer, I can get confirmation of this if required as I don’t have the invoice to hand.
The Bad Bits – Not too much really. A couple of scratches on the rear bumper, a scrape on the passenger side front wheel arch (surface scratch on a wooden joist in my garage) and I guess the alloys do look a bit tired. Otherwise the bodywork is excellent, you can tell this car has been very well looked after.
