Hi all,
Just after any comments you may have on this Audi A4 Avant 2.4 1998 on TM.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=184311236

Is it priced about right for the km's?
What do I need to look out for on these models that hasn't been covered in the write up?
Cheers.

If so, i wouldn't trust anything else he says as being factually correct.

Definitely not Xenon lights - they have clear lenses.

Can get a light upgrade to clear-lense angel-eye/projectors for about $300 on TM.

Would modernise the front end a lot - My Father-In-Law did it on his '99 A4 - looked very good.

That's the same year, engine and colour as my avant. The price seems about right for the mileage, if there are no major issues.

I'd say check if the engine smokes and make sure the transmission is smooth, check all the electrics work with no glitches. A vagcom check is advisable too.

If you get it I'll buy the roof bars from you!

Cheers all. Picking it up tomorrow.
Sorry Dan, it came without the roofbars!
