Words: Steve Johnson
Hello again Audi aficionados! Thank you for clicking on another edition of Auction Watch where we’ve done the internet searching for you. We’ve checked multiple car auction sites looking for Audi models worthy of your bids. Each Thursday we post those listings calling out a car’s highlights, and include a few pictures and a link to the listing. Our goal is to help you find the Audi that you’re looking for in time for you to bid on it.
Now for a summary of this week’s listings. If you scroll down to the fourth listing you’ll wish you were a kid again, or under 4’4”, the height limit to drive an Auto Union Type C pedal car. And I thought the inline-5 coffee table was cool, this may top it! For real cars this week we have six RS models to choose from: two RS 5 Coupes, two RS 6 Avants, one RS 7 and one RS Q8. The special edition this week is an S4 25quattro. The car you’ve probably never seen before this week is a 2016 Audi Exclusive Nogaro Blue S6. There are Mark I TTs in both body styles but if you’re looking for a practical cargo/people hauler how about an Allroad of a sporty Q7? Yes, I said sporty Q7. Scroll down to find out why and check out all of this week’s listing while you’re at it. It’s great to be back and, as always, thanks for reading!

The N/A 4.2L V8 (450HP/317 lb-ft) exhales into a Capristo exhaust, mates to a 7-speed S tronic, and really needs a service and new battery.
