I didn't have anything sophisticated (other than a small chisel) when I last had a disc screw stuck in my B8, so I hammered that into the screw in an anti clockwise direction, and it eventually came out

The headlight sensor was also noticed broken, just hanging around, when I had my rear springs changed, but we decided to just cable tie it safe 😄

Reminded me of buying my first Audi (a TT roadster), still miss it, anyway, at the time I had a Megan convertible with the glass roof.  did not consider trade in so tried We Buy myself was offered £180, turned it down, they upped to £250, refused that checked prices on AutoTrader, so asked for £1,000, sold it to a mechanic for £800, he was chuffed with his purchased.  I'm now on my third Audi 2019 A3 Sportback, traded in an A3 Cabrio'.  I now wonder where We Buy get their prices from.

Well she nearly done just getting new tyre for the back, just got a small leak on the power steering hose so a easy fix and need too bleed the breaks to put fresh do4 in and bleed the radiator from the hose at the back sound lush

She looks amazing, what's making you want to sell her after all the hard work you've done?

Bless ya. What 4x4 you looking at? 

Might be worth doing a for sake post on the for sale section. Make sure you put a price and location. 

What else still needs doing?
