Ive had a lot of fun with the 3 door but after driving the rs4 again I still got out the car with a huge smile on my face, round the lanes this is so much fun .

Im not worried about the 18mpg as its a fun weekend toy .

Nononono. My IS has fat boy seats; last RS4 I sat in (B7 I think), the bolsters on the seats were surprisingly hard and tight!

Make sure you keep hold of it.The scumbags love these cars.
There was a car key burglary gang operating in Birmingham who only targeted these models.They nicked 27 before they were caught.

Ahh, I thought they all had those seats. I love an RS4, so I was gutted when I sat in it and it pinched!

EDIT - these were the ones

I really really love RS4s. I would love a go in one. The price of parts would put me off though.

Brakes are Ł700 new service is around Ł400.

Insurance is Ł398 for me 35 with 0 ncb due to having classic car policy's for 15 years. So all in all this for me ticks all the box's. I can't see it breaking as much as a 30 year old car. No rust either which is brilliant.


I will miss the cossie but I've had it 10 years and need a change

There great cars but just don't suit me anymore ,busy with work and my son so wanted the car to go to a good home where the new owner can look after it and give the old girl the attention she needs .


As for the insurance , I don't know why its cheap as you say but its garaged and not left on the road .

A company works on them in my yard and you are correct Audi tax is far greater than Cossie tax.
Now where do I sign up for Audi work lol.

Different ball game to a cossie , there's many ways I can look at it .

I got my cossie on 86000 miles , sold it on 109000 so 23000 miles cost me

24K Hobby or not ive chucked money away .

As the cossies get rarer your pockets will get deeper as with all performance cars .
