The Lemans is an S-line with 19" 7 double spoke wheels, ambient lighting and Le Mans badges on the wings.

Doing a search on your reg :- 

Confirm your vehicle is a Audi A6 Saloon (04-11)

2.7 TDI Le Mans 4d

Just Google 2008 Audi 2.7 Le-Mans. 

There are loads out there.

Cheers, this so called Audi specialist isn't as good as he thinks.

Might be worth trying a vin decoder. Or ringing an Audi dealer or parts dealer with your vin to see what comes up. Or do a hpi check. I'll admit S line and Le Man's do look similar.

My recently purchased 2.0tdi is showing on log book as le man's with 19" wheels and ambient lighting but doesn't have le man's badges it has sline

I think Audi were banned from using

the name Le Mans.
