Woah!

 

I used to own a Java Green A4 in 2014-2016. Mine was 1.8T Quattro Sport. It's weird seeing an N/A 1.8 in that colour, or even just another A4 in that colour. I've never seen another one up until now.

 

Photo for proof. It was written off shortly after I sold it in 2016 when an HGV changed lane into the side of it. The new owner had only had it about 6 months or so.

It had a weird scratch on the wing when I bought it, so that plaster sticker got put over it, because I'm lazy.

 

I just noticed the advert even says:

and after internet searching I have only found one old  posting of another in the UK and unsure if that car still exists ?

Nope!

5.0 V10. Wasn’t that a diesel ? I thought these were 6.0 W12.

Yeah, the W12 was the top of the range. If a v10 diesel wasn't good enough VW also sold you a V12 diesel, you'd have to pop over to Audi to get that though, only available in the Q7.

Didn’t know the Pharton was available as a diesel.

Seems like that might do someone a good turn for a year or two. Impressive to have covered all those miles and still look reasonably decent. These don't rot that bad and the 1.9tdi is a great lump. Must have been well looked after to go for all that time. 

Probably got another 100k in it, or more if looked after.

The common one in the UK IIRC is the 3.0 V6 diesel.

Do these have an EML? Do they mean the oil or water lights are on. The former would possibly  be terminal.

To me looks like a 15 (handbrake) and 12 (engine and diagnostic)

Located in Sheffield. This pic was taken outside what looks to be the Scotch Piper pub in Lancashire.

I didn't know those weren't ULEZ compatible. The 1.8T is though, IIRC.

You get the "always" for 500 as well which I assume are alloys. 

Looks nice with the gingercators.

Maybe that's due to the design of the N/A engine. I think the Octavia vRS is still ULEZ friendly :)

to be honest I think for some cars they would likely be complaint but manufacturers didnt need to measure/declare the NOX/particulate values pre 2000 so some cars which may be below the limits are therefore non complaint due to no data

Any post-2001 petrol-engined car will have an EML as OBD2 compatibility was compulsory by then.

Ahem ahem - I must admit I have never driven a car made after 2000😂.

So if I ever do I will now know.

Thanks!

95% of Phaetons sold in the UK are the basemodel diesel. Which is a shame.
