The previous owner had rear ended someone causing the damage that can be seen to the front end of the vehicle. I purchased the car with the intentions of repairing it for my wife. Now we are having to deal with courts in a custody battle with her ex to assure the safety and well being of our daughter so, the car must go. As I said, the car runs and drives well. The motor mounts could use replacing and I was going to go ahead and do all the maintenance, such as new belts and fluids, to assure its all done and up to standard as I have no idea the last time anything was performed. I would recommend the same to the new owner. The brakes have about half their life remaining. Three of the four tires need to be replaced. The spare is a full sized, matching wheel spare but, the tire on it was obviously a match for the other three and didn't survive. I would assume the only time worth keeping was the spare to begin with. So, a new set of tires is in order. The interior is clean and everything works properly but there are some things on the dash that need to be replaced. For example, the ash tray and little storage tray are broken and need to be replaced. The glove box hinges are broken. Audi has a repair kit for this issue and it is a known problem. The seat bottoms on the front seat have cracks and tears. I was going to put on seat covers or have them repaired. I hadn't decided yet. Beyond that, its pretty nice inside. The body is fairly straight. The driver's side rear door does have a dent, which can be seen in the pictures, that I am pretty sure can be popped out if you pull the door panel and push on it from the inside. There isn't a crease so it should straighten out fairly well. Some heat and some massaging and it should look pretty smooth. The hood is obviously damaged. I was going to hammer it as straight as possible, smooth it over with filler and sanding, and them prime it only as needed to protect it and then wrap it in carbon fiber wrap. I have already purchased the wrap. The grills, all four, need to be replaced. There are some really nice after-market grills that I was going to purchase that would look really sharp. The mounting tabs for the headlights were cracked so the headlight housings need to be replaced. I was going to take this opportunity to upgrade to HID lighting. If you prefer to go cheaper you can just replace the housings and stay with the projectors which are plenty bright. The upper radiator support does need to be replaced as well as the fan / shroud assembly. The a/c condenser was punctured in the accident and needs to be replaced and the system will need to be recharged. This is all that I can think of at the moment. I am trying to be as up front and forward as possible. I figured this is a great opportunity to obtain a really nice car at a fraction of the price. Plus, you get to put your personal touches on it as you build it. Every vehicle we purchase, this is how I go about it and we come out ahead every time. We buy it needing repairs, such as this Audi A4, repair it, have the title converted back to a blue title, drive it for a few years, and then sell it for a profit. Even when we have had a car totaled in a hail storm, which has happened twice now, we have received more than we paid for it or had it all together. If you have any questions or would like to see any additional pictures please let me know. |

2019 BMW X7 vs luxury SUV rivals: Comparing specs and photos
Wed, Oct 17 2018Today we get our first-ever look at the first-ever 2019 BMW X7 crossover. We've actually already had our first-ever drive in an X7 Prototype. And so, we thought it appropriate to follow that up today with the first-ever X7 comparison of specs between BMW's first-ever three-row crossover with legitimate room for seven and its many high-dollar competitors. On paper, the 2019 X7 definitely seems to most closely align with the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class. Their similar dimensions, interior space, engine choices and price would certainly imply where BMW placed the target when developing X7. We used those same elements to determine three-row vehicles likely to be cross-shopped or that should be cross-shopped. These include the Audi Q7, Land Rover Discovery, Volvo XC90 and Lincoln Navigator. Yes, the latter is a truck-based SUV as opposed to a crossover, but tell that to all the people lining out the door at the local Lincoln emporium. They do not care, and neither shall we. We also included the 2019 BMW X5, which was completely redesigned for this year and therefore not the first-ever. That makes it less appealing? Either way, lining the new X5 up with the SUV that leapfrogs it atop BMW's SUV hierarchy should provide a good idea of just how much more you get by going up a model number. Engines and model lineup Again, the X7 aligns closest with the GLS, offering a base six-cylinder in its xDrive40i model and an upgrade turbo V8 in the xDrive50i. The Mercedes engines have greater output, but the GLS still accelerates slower than the BMW. As the 2019 X5 offers the exact same engines, we would also expect the X7's fuel economy to be superior to the GLS once its estimates are announced. It should be noted, though, that the GLS offers a high-powered AMG model whereas we anticipate the X7 to offer a plug-in hybrid model comparable to the X5 upcoming xDrive45e model. The other luxury SUVs diverge in their engine choices and model lineup. The Audi Q7 offers a base turbocharged four-cylinder, as does the Volvo XC90 in its T5 model, which we left out of the above chart entirely for space reasons. That the Q7 3.0 TFSI supercharged V6 gets the same fuel economy estimates as the four-cylinder is proof positive that engine is purely around for its lower base price.
The hot hatch without a hatch | 2017 Audi S3 First Drive
Thu, Nov 3 2016The 2017 Audi S3 is a car without equal. That might end up on a billboard, but it's actually meant quite literally, as in the S3 has no direct competitor. Other compact luxury sedans, of which there are few, can't match its performance. The BMW 2 Series has two doors, plus it's rear-drive. The bonkers Mercedes-AMG CLA45 is on another power and price planet altogether. The mechanically related VW Golf R isn't a luxury car and has a hatch instead of a trunk. And so the S3 exists as an oddity. But it's a fun oddity, and a well-made one too. For 2017, it receives a number of noteworthy changes to keep it fresh and technologically relevant. Most also apply to the 2017 Audi A3, the car on which it's based, which itself gets a new 2.0-liter turbo four base engine in place of the old 1.8-liter. Paired with front-wheel drive and essentially a variation of the Quattro model's carry-over 2.0-liter, it produces 186 horsepower (up from 170) and returns 29 mpg combined (up from 27). That revamped A3 wasn't on hand for the press drive in Durham, North Carolina, so we were not-at-all stuck with the 2017 S3. Its own 2.0-liter turbo four is unchanged, still pumping out 292 hp and 280 pound-feet of torque through a six-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission. Audi says it'll hit 60 mph in 4.7 seconds, which is a full second quicker than the 220-hp A3 Quattro as well as about a half-second quicker than the Audi A4 Quattro. That bonkers CLA45 is around the four-second mark. Indeed, having so much power in such a small sedan is a novel and grin-inducing experience. The throttle response is sharp enough in standard mode, but tap the dash-mounted Audi Drive Select toggle to choose Dynamic, and it comes even more alive, eagerly shooting the S3 forward with the merest hint of a toe wiggle. The DSG is also quite happy to downshift when called upon, either by said toe or by itself when under braking. Blipping down two gears when heading into a corner is commonplace here, as are the sharp little barks that emanate from the S3's quad exhaust tips. And then there's the S3's Quattro all-wheel drive, which has been updated for 2017 with the same performance-oriented system found in the TT and TTS. Although its front/rear torque split is constantly changing based on current traction conditions, it nevertheless skews towards a rear torque bias to the point that, when in Dynamic mode, it won't reduce power in oversteer situations.
