It's a 6 speed manual SE (I think ) It has over 20k of extras so that wasn't really a thing for me tbh. It's spec is very high, especially for an audi, which come basically with seats and a steering wheel as standard.

I have been known to change my mind at the drop of a hat.... After all of my research and hundreds if not couple of thousand miles travelled looking at E350s I've finally come home with a car! I am now the proud and happy owner of a 2008 Audi 3.0 V6 Tdi quattro A4 with every conceivable...

Money is money no matter where or who it comes from. Just cos he's a bit of a pleb it doesn't mean he won't have the dosh. Once it's in ze bank you're golden.

Turns out the car isn't available to view today after all. I thought all car showrooms were open on a Sunday so I'm left very disappointed as I was hoping to secure it today. Was also looking at an almost identical one near Birmingham with a slightly less spec but it's been reserved straight...

I've decided to go for something a tad cheaper now anyway I'm looking at a lovely 2011 E350 which will leave a few quid in my back pocket. I appreciate all the info guys. Thanks very much.

I had been looking for the gearbox oil but assumed it must been included in one of the previous services. I'll have good rifle through the previous receipts to see if I can find evidence that's it's been done. If it hasn't how much would that cost as I think they're it's due around 75k from...

As always I'm really grateful for your help especially the service history. Any thoughts on the price of the car? It seems reasonable to me but I'm an absolute rookie and will be the most money I've ever spent on a car. I bought my work van a few years back for the same figure.

I just found a great car on Auto Trader. 2012 Silver MERCEDES-BENZ E CLASS 3.0 E350 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY Sport G-Tronic 5dr for sale for £12995 in Harrogate, North Yorkshire Download the app to find your perfect car...

After deliberating for longer than I care to remember and changing my mind several times I have finally pinned down a car which I think is reasonably priced, well spec's and just right for my cash flow and general situation. I was going to go balls out and spend 20k on a gorgeous car but I've...

What app did you use to get this info?

I hadn't taken the gearbox into consideration tbh. A good friend of mine is a very competent mechanic so I've asked him if it would be something he'd be OK doing. I can't decide if this car is quite 'cheap' or if the sellers asking almost the same money for cars several years older are crazy...

Hello guys. I was on here a while back hoping to find a really nice E55 but nothing ever really came up. Since then my priorities have somewhat changed and I've grown a slightly more sensible head. There is an absolutely gorgeous E350 for sale just down the road from me. I will post the link. If...

No mate. A change in circumstances rapidly squashed this dream for me. Very miffed.

But what about pictures for us to have a squiz at yer new motor?

Not got a clue. It all seems a bit ropey to me but I've got the car sat on the drive and is going to be detailed within an inch of its life over Sunday and Monday. It'll be sold soon and I can move on to something else. I've loved owning a W140 but it's defo time to move on.
