Car valuation help please

sheps · 07-18-2011, 09:20 AM

Can anyone with a detailed glasses trade account assist with a non-BMW car valuation please?

My buddy has just moved back to UK, and whilst he waits for income to stabilise he's buying his missus a used Audi.

He's found himself a metallic black 2006 A4 saloon, 2.7tdi auto S line 66k,fAsh.
I don't know if its cloth or leather or whether it has Sat Nav/Bose any juicy options etc.

Can anyone help with a suggested buy price please?

TIA

Si

Good for an indication maybe but was a bit out on my car.

Didn't buy it; I won't say it was a total hound, but I wouldn't have parted with my money for it. Every panel had some mark or another on it, rear quarter had seen paint (badly, clearly not done by main dealer or subsidiary) and paint had sunk into the filler, revealing DA marks. Interior was ok, just a bit dirty.

However, on the same lot we found a B8 chassis A4 (the latest shape) two years newer, 8k miles less, in beautiful condition (albeit SE spec, not S Line) for Nother grand, so deal done.
