Default Advice from Audi lovers!!

Hey guys i finally found an Audi i like . Its a 99' A4 2.8quattro with 63K miles. Its 5speed, silver with black interior. The car is in stock condition, spotless, well maintained, garaged with no dents, and clean car fax. So my questions are, 1) Car hasnt had the timing belt done, do i really need to get it done now or wait till 70K? 2) It needs some brake and rotor work, how much on average does it cost to repair those? i did some quick google search and found rotos to be about 60 a piece... is this price about right (just for rotors)?

Thanks for your time and all the input that you may put. Cant wait to getmy hands on thisaudi

EDIT: Here are pictures of my audi

those seats don't look stock. Kinda look like s4 seats from the side. But it's a good looking car.

You need to lose the front license plate bracket. Other than that I like it. Didn't see the price you paid but I would have looked at that one myself had it been in my area. I hope you enjoy driving it now.

Good Luck...
