Default Any value to a 99 A8 needing tranny, tb, and control arms?
Ive been trying to make a decision here. Wife wants a new car and I can't reasonably consider putting 5500 into this one since I am not equipped to do the work myself. It just turned 100k and is still driven daily. New brakes and tires. Not sure if it is even marketable. Black with warm and cold weather. Needs a few items. Opinions? What would I do with it if there is no market for it? Ugh!

Well, I bought a 98' A8 Sport in excellent condition with 62K miles for $4000.

Does it drive in spite of the tranny ?

Big difference

Where are you? Geography sets the price scale.
