Insurance write-off was for $11,700+tax credit
Offer to buy back was $1,700
Repair estimate was $12.5K (this is without a teardown estimate)

I opted not to deal with the repairs as the turbo intercooler was confirmed shot and may have sucked components into the actual turbo...1 turbo goes, well you all know the cost for a double turbo replacement. Next is the body work that needs to be done.

Sounds like you made a wise decision to me.

Fellow allroaders, I thought I would drop in and tell you how my story ends. Well, I have officially moved over from the C5 to the B7 platform. I contemplated some other cars but came back to the Audi stable. Car arrived on 12/8 and I finally had the time to prep it for some pics (included below)

I did see that my beloved allroad is up for auction at the salvage yard and garnering some interest. Hopefully there is someone interested in breathing life back into her.

It's been a pleasure reading this board the past 5 years. I will be popping in every so often but will now spend most of my time on the Q7 and S4 forum.

Glad to see that at least you got some form of closure.

Sorry. All the accessories sold offline or through AW classifieds. I do have a Symphony II+ available but for a B7; I put a 2010 RNS-E in the S4.
