A gem of an engine that makes a great noise in a practical car. Selling to free up some cash for a house move. This is the updated CREC engine, with efficiency and reliability improvements. It has been totally reliable in my ownership. A safety recall has been completed recently, as well as servicing at an Audi specialist. Several thousand spent during my ownership on maintenance items. I replaced the lowering springs with standard springs, but I still have the lowering springs and wheel spacers to go with the car. It has had new brake discs and pads, wheel hubs and wheel bearings all round in the last year. As seen in the photos, there are a couple of small patches where the clear coat has peeled on the front bumper, and one patch on the rear spoiler.
