As you have said, it is probably cheap motoring, pay £5000 for it, drive it around until Easter 2014 and sell for £4000 - simples. I dont think buying it carries that much risk, so long as you have fully HPI'd it (I would do this myself and not leave to the dealer) and I would also call the Audi dealer where it had it services (at least the last one) to double check the history and what they did. When it comes to sell make sure it has one years MOT and tax to last until at least the end of summer 2014 and someone will snap it up for summer next year.

EDIT - is it full AUDI service history?


Just done a CAP valuation:

AUDI
A4 CABRIOLET 3.0 Quattro Sport 2dr (ID:25616) YF04TSZ
Mileage:59000 (06/01/2013)
Date of Registration:27/07/2004
VIN:WAU*******345
Colour:BLACK
Valuations
Trade In Clean£3,775 -
£4,025
Trade In Average£3,425 -
£3,650
Trade In Below£3,075 -
£3,275


and we buy any car say, £3280, which is rock bottom book price - i suspect because it is a uneconomical 3.0 petrol.

So, just buy it!
