The title says it all.
There is just something about an Audi Avant...maybe its the endless roof line, but it sure is a thing of beauty, change my mind!
WTB:
Either a decent B8 A4 Avant to eventually S4 swap
Or
An already S4 swapped B8 Avant

What you're looking for is made of unobtainium. In 12 years on this forum, I believe I've seen a total of 2 B8 A4 to S4 swapped Avants. Clearly an awesome find if you do come across one, but you'd probably have better luck buying an Avant and a donor S4 and having the swap done yourself. However, this will be at great cost to you I imagine. Best of luck!

Id sell mine if the offer is good enough.
Sline/Prestige/functional sport diff/Stage 2 dual pulley/Panda front seats/stainless steel inlays/3g+ upgrade/RS5 flat bottom steering/True Alcon 375 and Brembo 356 front and rear BBK kit. List goes on. All Maintenance items are all addressed. Pretty sure I gave you my price (maybe Im wrong, but a few people have asked) before which was substantially less then anyone has built/sold one for prior. You cant buy a Avant, a wrecked s4, and the parts I have on my car for what I offered let alone get someone to swap the parts. And add the wiring for the sports diff? Not gonna happen.
Unobtainium. No. But solid late model b8.5 s4 money which for a car that barely exists in the US...

Unicorns do exist, just ask hardfive ...I suppose my title was not as clear as I thought it would be. I am either looking for a starter A4 Avant to eventually swap OR one already swapped. The B8’s are my weak spot, so I am currently in search of one. If you follow Pacific German at all, they just did an B8.5 Allroad with RS5 swap [emoji97][emoji97][emoji97] has me intrigued.

Yes we are! sweet ride man!
Interesting way to do the swap. Someone in the future is really gonna wonder how they ended up with a 2.0l S4. Love it.
