Update: It's taken longer than expected, but the car is now finally up for auction. When the auction is live, I'll post the link.
Original:
We really love this car and I’m sad to sell it. If I had more space to park cars, I’d keep it. We’re only selling because our kids are getting bigger so we need more rear seat and cargo space. I'm putting it up here for a week or so. If no takers, it'll go up for auction.
It’s a blast to drive. Super comfortable for long road trips. It also handles great. With the roof rack off, we’ve seen 30MPG for extended distances on the highway - over 600 miles on a tank. 33 cubic feet of cargo is only 2 cubic feet less than a brand new Q7.
I bought this at 81k miles in early 2012. It has been serviced by two local Audi specific shops, myself and a couple trips to the dealer (eg recalls.) Oil changes have been roughly every 7k. The last Blackstone oil analysis said to try 9k, but I don’t let it go that long. ECU is stock and I’ve never made any changes to it.

Price includes:
Studless snow tires on stock Audi wheels - roughly 8/32nds tread left
