If you consider that C.A.R.B in LA in America have been since the sixties the architects of fuel injection and OBD rationalisation which massively cut emissions so the rest of America adopted these new strategies, we on the other hand did none of the above until the late seventies and now the government wants to set the blame against the voting public by manipulating our consciences. The worlds weather will change anyway, it always has, if you look at the facts the ice age was caused by a tropical planets land masses having loads of swamps and rotting vegetation all giving off methane and carbon monoxide, and there wasn't an Audi in sight, this blew a dirty great hole in the Ozone layer which then caused the ice age for god knows how many million years, No, no the experts cry but the fact of the matter is that if I was offered that sort of money to wander round spouting crap to anyone who would listen, they all have dual standards take dear old Greta who sails a solar powered yacht over to America to harangue Donny Trump, when its time to go home the replacement crew were FLOWN out to sail her miserable moon face back home, of course she isn't getting sponsored or paid for any of this. Anyone just see that flying pig. Steve.

Hello Rob, Thanks for being in touch with the forum. Exactly how old is this car you are going to be looking at? As I understand it, the car can either be set on a Longlife schedule - usually if it covers a reasonably mileage - and generally the servicing comes around at c18k miles, or c18 months. The alternative is an annual service schedule where lower than average mileages are covered. If this car has covered 17k in xmonths since new, then you can work out how many services it should have had at a minimum. Do you know the history of ownership of the car? Surely there must be others about that could be considered, since the explanation you are being given sounds like ‘a salesman’s excuse’. Kind regards, Gareth.

Looks like a decent deal autoexpress.co.uk: Audi launches new “one-stop-shop” service plan. https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/audi/355116/audi-launches-new-one-stop-shop-service-plan And you save 6p if you pay it all up front 😁 Ps is this the right place for this?

When we are all back living in caves eating raw vegetables and wondering why it's always so cold (and wouldn't it be nice if it was 2 C warmer) we won't need cars - so where's the problem? 😁 😁

So true. Long term the powers that be want all us minions off the road. For anything electric to be truely green it has to at least equalise it's carbon offset from the build process. Now here's how using electric vehicles is done properly: Built by Brush of Loughborough in the 1930s and still going strong at Blackpool!

Stevey Y, I agree with all your points. I believe that the elctric car market is realy being introduce for the wealthy and elite of the UK to price everyone else out so they have to use London Transport etc, trains, buses and bikes to get around .........or worse just stay indoors (hence lockdown) 🤣
