So I had the VW CC as the family car for a couple of years, which is a long time for me, but I was constantly looking to go up a few years and was watching out for a C220 AMG or an Audi A6. Well ended up with near enough 
This came up only 20 miles away and I spotted it the night the ad went live. After a weird couple of days which included the seller putting the price up AFTER accepting my deposit I eventually picked up this facelift 2015 A7 3.0TDi S Line.
It was detailed shortly before I bought it so I'll include a couple of those as my camera skills are awful.
I'm unsure what the basic S Line spec on these are but this has upgrade 20 inch alloys, LED matrix headlights, head up display, larger console screen and the colour sat nav screen within the speedo display.
I've a few plans for it and also wonder if anyone local to me has Carista and could unlock or enable a few things like turning on rear drl's and having the boot close by key. Cosmetically, the first and cheapest mod so far is painting the calipers red. Hopefully a few more will follow in the coming weeks.
This car has 218bhp but after a bit of research it seems every single component is the same as the 272bhp model so it's simply a detuned model. A map can restore it back to 272bhp or up to 328bhp with no modifications needed. A couple of companies have said the stronic gearbox map needs remapped which is confusing. I've been in contact with a guy who i found on the NIAOC page on Facebook. He has the exact same model and he never got his gearbox mapped and has no complaints.
Finally got my plate on this week, another thing off the list. Went with the gloss lettering for a change.
