I could be wrong, but looks to me like...
ChronicTeutonic or one of his business associates is bidding on the car...note the "AirSpare" name which as I recall is his company name and license plate on his own A8L....(sorry if I'm blowing your cover Chronic) :-)

There is "new engine" and there is "not exactly" ...
"New engine" ...
Well, that's what the seller said anyway (not the same seller as this one though).
The paperwork from Audi doesn't seem to indicate a new engine. All I have is a large repair order/bill for the replacement of all of the cam adjusters. The vehicle disclosure statement reads that there was a mechanical malfunciton of the cam adjusters. Sounds like greek to me I have to admit, but I suspect that doesn't mean there is a "new" engine in there except maybe for the cam adjusters. Of course, this could be why the Audi tech I paid to inspect the car said "they sure did a good job on the engine replacement, I can hardly tell it was done". LOL!
It is *possible* (and monkeys might fly out of my ***) that Audi says one thing in private and writes another thing on the vehicle disclosure statments ... or *maybe* the used car salesmen don't exactly tell the truth. Nah, no way a used car salesman would lie. Next thing you know the president would lie on TV about something to do with an intern. :-)
Audi worked on the car for 30 hours over the course of 3 months. It's kind of wierd. I can't imagine they kept sending the owner home without having fixed the problem. Also I just noticed they reference another repair order (which I don't have of course). I'll have to see if I can get it.
The car has been great for us so far. I sure hope that doesn't change real soon.
