Approved Audi - Dealer markup?

Aren't there a fair few rs6's for sale...? You seem overly set on this one, why does it have to be this one? what's so special about it?

don't get me wrong, every rs6 is awesome but if I was spending that much I'd want the best possible. If I was mint and just buying it for 6months yer I'd buy the easiest one.

Probably because he's seen it in the flesh and driven it

...and because he doesn't want it to spend the next month at the dealer sorting out niggles.

It's like new, inside and out. It's from a main dealer so has the full Audi approved used warranty. It has all the desirable options (Keyless go, TV, DAB, advanced parking, reversing cam, power close doors, powered boot). It's in the perfect colour scheme.

I've spent a long time looking and haven't found anything comparable.

As for the nav, I haven't found any cars in budget that have the HDD Nav. It might be that only 2010+ cars have it which are over budget.

It has all that, but no sat-nav? :confused:

Which one is it, I thought it was the £49K one at Bramley?

Housey · 24 Jun 2012 at 11:11

And you would be MAD to buy an RS6 without Sat Nav unless you are on a contract with agreed future value. No one will want without Sat Nav even if a Tom Tom is better.

He said it was up for £41k, though whether it still is given he's put a deposit on it now, i'm not sure.

Does it have NO sat nav or does it just not have the top of the range HDD sat nav or whatever its called?

Surely this will be the case for the vast majority of them?

They're cars that people take care of, they're not used and abused.

Err guys, of course it has nav

it's just not the latest revision.

Then fine

Sounds alright to me, especially as they gave you £4k over trade for your old RS6.

It sounds like a fantastic car TBH, kudos for being in a position to buy it. I don't think you have negotiated a huge bargain though, which was what you alluded to. When will we see pics???

It's a 2009 Audi, of course it is!

I don't think i could spend the thick end of £40k on a car that lacked any option that was available!

It seems that actually what he means is that Audi moved over from DVD to HDD Nav at some point and that this car was built before then, not that it was available but not specified.

Its an option that was available on 08 Audi's onwards, but an expensive one. In order to get the HDD nav you have to spec a pack that costs the close end of £2k IIRC, maybe more.

Peerzy · 24 Jun 2012 at 11:43

Aren't most Nav systems like £1.5k anyway?

Thats cheaper than Pro Nav on a diesel 3 Series, so small fry for somebody speccing a new RS6!
