    Here are some comparable Bentley Mulsanne rear end shots for you to compare Styria. The guard vents are fake brake cooling vents.

    AUDI A7 3.0 litre TDI

    What a great thread. Imagine a Silver Shadow being gutted and re fitted overnight. What a job. Yes, A mate of mine bought his wife an Audi A2. Nothing but trouble from the time they owned it, until the time they traded it on a VW Tiguan Wolfsburg.

    AUDI A7 3.0 litre TDI

    Styria, This was a very well cared for and serviced car, (by a local mechanic not Audi) one owner and just near me in the Blue Mountains. Under the car, inside and under the bonnet were like new. Of course the owner said nothing regarding any “issues” The oil issue was completely unknown to me...

    AUDI A7 3.0 litre TDI

    Brian, Perfectly valid points. I should have added in my post that the car I was referring have probably been passed through many hands, and had not seen OEM dealer servicing probably after 6 months of its life. Properly maintained Europeans are of course good examples for sure.

    AUDI A7 3.0 litre TDI

    Styria, Yes it was the one that appeared here. It had just over 100k on the clock and it would consume a whole sump of oil down the the add line (4 litres) in around 350km, however blow no smoke at all. It would also just do the weirdest things, for no reason. All Audi’s I have been involved...

    AUDI A7 3.0 litre TDI

    Painfully it reminds me of the 2011 A3 convertible we owned. A beautiful car that proved to be a total shit box after 5 years. That’s why we see great Audi’s at bargain basement prices. They should be dismantled at the 10 year mark and recycled. Not as spare parts but as proper recycling...

    450SE picks up his 450SE

    I love the colour. I’d say there is something wrong for sure. As I said, the missing star is a sign of neglect and no care.

    450SE picks up his 450SE

    The middle of the back seat looks ratty as well. The star missing indicates neglect to me.

    450SE picks up his 450SE

    Suspect why there are no pics of the engine bay or boot, or the front seats. Very strange the star is missing off the grille.

    450SE picks up his 450SE

    I’d really like a 450SE or SEL. However I would imagine a good one would be readily available any more.
