Hehehehe. That's a good one.

Seriously, at 90K-ish miles, I'd make sure the timing belt
has been replaced. There are lots of things on a 14 year
old Audi V8 that won't show up in a service list but may
cause problems, such as steering racks leaking and worn
and automatic transmissions slipping due to leaking seals.

There is a (throwing modesty out the window) pretty 
good buyer's checklist on the Audifans web site:
