I've never been able to take the final step of buying one with the potential costs of turbo failure looming over the whole thing... shame though, because they have a lot of potential and I think they look really nice with a couple of small changes on the outside.


Cheers,

Mine cost me £160 in fuel last week.

Mines a 2.7v6 S4 with 440hp from MRC though....might be up for sale soon mind (this is not a for sale post).

Its been great. Running costs quite low considering Id imagine a lot cheaper with a standard S4.

When you got 19s to wrap in Eagle F1s, Brembo 8pots you need new DS2500s in the costs soon add up as I found out. Its the kind of car that has to be kept propperly though!

Very nice cars though
