RS4 ?

Post by 55NF » Thu Mar 20, 2014 12:06 pm

Collected my A4 Avant Blk Ed from Audi after a warranty issue, rattling dash.  Saw while I was in there a cracking deal on the RS4.    Only had the Avant diesel 6 months but I'm thinking of having one of these if they can put a deal together.        5.5K down & 350 PM inc VAT for 24 months.  Dealer cont of 7500K I think.  Only 6K miles per year.

Someone has one on here don't they?    what's it like to live with? 

Keeping the E70 another year as I like it so much in comparison to the new one.

Deposit seems a bit steep, considering the limited mileage pa.
IIRC deals are on till the end of the this month/quarter end

Have a look over on rs246.com, B8 RS4 section, plenty of good info

535 will be along once he has been collected by road side assistance (again).

Now you mention it, can't really remember him posting many pics of his RS4 though ….
