A nice 4.2 V8 one that runs on proper fuel and not lorry fuel.

My guess is that the garage already knows what the problem is.

Looks nice & no doubt it is a great engine but I know they can be a money pit.

It does indeed look very nice and will go like stink, depends how much you want the car and how much to fix the rough engine.

As they say, you pays your money and you takes your chance.

It's an Audi. So either it needs a £30 ignition coil(and the garage will have tried that), or something oppsing expensive is wrong with it.

Indeed.

I seem to remember that the 4.2 suffers from carbon build up and needs to be de-coked.


The term 'Slightly' is slightly worrying :)

It does say "Black, Next MOT due 08/02/2017, Full service history,"

Now unless my eyes are playing trick on me those front disk's look knackered.
