    UPDATED new pics back from a full detail

    I bought this car about 3 years ago as a winter commuter. Its stock with 192k miles on it. Runs good, probably needs some servicing etc, but i'd say for almost 200k miles its in pretty nice shape. Has factory nav which ive never dared to use lol. Just looking to sell because I now have too many cars and no longer need this one. Asking $3,900 obo. Located in Avon CT. Any questions just lmk. Ill post some interior photos if anyones interested.

    This is some info from the listing when I bought the car 3 yrs ago.

    Oil change
    Complete front suspension rebuild (Every suspension arm bushing refreshed 3600 miles ago)
    New, all metal outer tie rods + 4 wheel alignment
    Rear lateral links replaced
    Complete brake service
    -4 new rotors, semi metallic pads, brake fluid exchanged
    New PCV valve
    Aftermarket intake manifold flap links
    Throttle body gasket (composite material replaced with MLS)
    Passenger outer CV boot replaced

    Ill also post a few pics of the interior from then, and take some new ones when i get home. I was planning on having it detailed (when schedules allows) but its pretty much the same. At least you can get an idea of the color scheme.interior.jpgint 2.jpg

    Here is a link to the post from when I purchased the car. https://www.audizine.com/forum/showt...-Navigation-CT

    Interested. Do you know if the timing belt has been done recently? Didn’t see it in the list of maintenance.

    Also would love to see more pics in its current state as the ones posted are from the ad 3 years ago. Feel free to shoot me a PM. Thanks.

    Just took these today.

    The car fax has a ton of service history from the dealer but I don't believe the belt has been replaced, to be more clear, I haven't had it done since owning the car. I did put a brand new battery in a few months ago. I drove the car for awhile today and it seems to be running great. It needs TLC, its not perfect, cosmetically id rate it a 7.8/10 then again if it were a 10 Id be asking much more or probably keeping it. It's (in my opinion) the best car for an enthusiast who wants an older s8 and doesn't mind fixing it up a bit.

    One of the best cars I have owned. Had a 2002 and then 2 S6 from the same model year. Somewhat interested but yes timing belt detail would help. Is there a list of items that needs to be fixed or would prevent safe driving? Any service history on torque converter (weak point and expensive to fix). Much appreciate any further repair/maint records.

    I've been driving it weekly just to keep it on the road, and just had the oil changed last week, not sure about the torque converter, I didn't have it done in the time i've owned it, I don't believe there is anything unsafe regarding its mechanical condition, I took it on about a 2 hour round trip drive twice this past month (mainly bc my daily is an electric Mini cooper which doesn't have the range lol) But yes, the car runs and drives well. Will it need future maintenance, sure, but what that is I don't know. If it helps I can take a video of it running.

    Thank you so much for the info. Still interested and am in GA. Just had surgery so cannot drive for next 2 weeks. Keeping a close eye as would fly in person if we settle on everything. Thanks
