BACKGROUND:

If condition is taken for granted, the most important criteria for the executive car is specification. Used buyers generally expect an increasingly higher level of specification and nowhere more than on a car with a prestige badge. This Audi was a direct entered fleet car in the right colour, at a good age (30 months) and an attractive mileage and of course powered by the very capable Audi 2.5 turbo diesel with an auto box. Add in the superb spec – leather trim, CD autochanger, climate control among others – and this was a highly desirable model, reflected in the selling price at nearly one-fifth above book. What's it worth?
