Default Audi A6 on ebay# 4633210265 - oil leak!

I tested this car and found out that front bamper cover was repainted(don't know why) and there is a leak near left turbo. I couldn't see if it was turbo itself or oil lines, but dealer didn't let me bring the car to my mechanic for full inspection.
This is second A6 2.7T with oil leak out of 5 I test drove. Is it common issue of 2.7T?<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=4633210265&amp;rd= 1&amp;sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=4633210265&amp;rd= 1&amp;sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3

Default three strikes - out

"dealer didn't let me bring the car to my mechanic for full inspection" - wow did he let you drive it off the lot?

Don't walk - run from this one.

Default Re: three strikes - out

They seemed to be very proud of themself (100% customer satisfaction) and they sell very expensive cars as well which is a good sign - they wouldn't try to sell broken or lemon car or something. But when I aksed to lift a car (since they didn't me bring it to my mechanic) their tech lift arm under break lines and damaged bottom coating, but thanks God didn't damage break lines. I am not sure what ot think about them, because at the end salesman told me- THEY ALL LEAK OIL!
