EddyH Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) I've posted this in here as it's more likely to be seen as I know personally I only ever look in here and not the classifieds. I've recently got a new car so a few parts intended for my S8 are available as will be the S8 itself shortly. 8 pot, 365mm RS4 front brakes with almost new discs. These would need to be on a p/x basis with standard front brakes and would require meeting at the garage I use in Chesterfield to do the swap. - SOLD Aluminium rings for the instrument cluster (similar to this but with rounded edges) - SOLD Facelift front centre armrests in black complete with bolt and grommit as seen in PaulW's how to: audipages Center Armrest Upgrade - SOLD Facelift double din walnut centre console trim and cage with all switches - SOLD Facelift Climate control panel with heated seat switches - SOLD Facelift ashtray in walnut with aluminium handle - SOLD RNS-E Sat Nav head unit, Q revision with 2007 DVD and GPS antenna - SOLD Standard aluminium gear surround, ideal for refurbing and changing the finish to brushed etc... SOLD More stuff will be added as I find it/sort it out. Any queries please ask. Edited November 12, 2008 by EddyH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figure11 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 I can't belive your really doing this. I have been after a set of RS4 brembos for ages. Not finding any I have had a set of custom disks and calipers manufactured; 2.3k! New RS4 kit from Audi would have been more expensive. How much for the car as is?

EddyH Posted October 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 It wasn't an easy decision! I wouldn't want to sell it with the current wheels as I really want to keep them, excluding those I'd be looking to get £4k. If anyone is genuiely interested then please let me know as my current plan is to sell any bits I can (the quad exhaust will be left on) and then stick it on ebay and see what I can get. It's currently at the garage having a service and the squeaky alternator belt replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EddyH Posted October 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 I know its waaaay nicer than mine but prices aren't strong right now.. I know (it allowed me to get my new car for a great price), that's why I think the best option is making money from the bits that I can. Leaving £2k of brakes and £2.5k of wheels on is silly. If I take those off I'll be happy with less for the car itself. Unfortunately the upgraded rear brakes will have to stay on as the hubs were modified to fit them.

harpersimon Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 No, still an Audi. Got a '55 A6 Avant 2.7TDI. Fair one, not a slow car - infact same as I am looking at hence having 'get rid of the 8' thoughts (see here) - Can't get my head around the fact I could spend more on some wheels, a service etc etc than the car is worth now. very depressing!

Figure11 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 [not quite a rant] I can't believe you think like that. I'm driving an £80k car. Yes its 10 years old and yes they have lifted its face and brought in a newer version. But it kicks the arse of my dad's new £21k top of the range Modaeoeoao rep mobile. And; And, if I mod it and spend more on it I'm not devaluing a new car. If I trash it I'll get another. I never wanted a new car. New cars are what the Jones' do. [/not quite a rant] Hmmmm I feel all free and happy......... Muhahahahaha mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gninnam Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 RNS-E sounds interesting - what would be required to get working in my A8 (has the RNS-D already in)? If not to much, then will have a chat with the boss:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just needs an adaptor loom (which I'll include for anyone off here). There's also a couple of connections to the instrument cluster to get the radio info to display etc... I can provide links etc... on how to do it if required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
