Differing specs for UK press cars?

Hello all, Considering upgrading my RS4 to a C8 RS6 however notice on some of the video reviews the cars(which are right hand drive) are sporting the "premium" B&O upgraded speakers. These have the metal look speaker grilles and tweeters which rise out of the dash however you can't seem to spec this...

Re: B8 RS4 Parts for sale - more items sold.

Any issues with tyres rubbing? Would you require standard wheel nuts as well?

Re: Revolution RS4 build thread...

Look a lot better than pitted/bleached standard ones, what sort of cost are you talking for a set?

Re: Exhausts!! It's time!! Which One :-)

Is the JCweldfab system "finished" yet and available to buy? Threads been running for a while now and there was a mention of prices being available soon some time ago but i can't seem to find any? Not much love for the Akra system yet it seems to be the most popular in the poll? Is that because of t...

Re: Take a Picture when Bored

Using blackfire sealant and wax this time round, weather was crap when I took the pics but the results are good. First time using it on white so will see how it goes.

Re: Sports Exhaust - black tips - degradation

£350 is a joke even considering labour to fit If I have the current set pit and Audi want me to pay, I'll take them off myself and get them painted with a heat proof black I could have easily done that too Graeme, the point is we shouldn't have to! Especially on a car still within manufacturers war...

Re: Sports Exhaust - black tips - degradation

Finally got my tips replaced but not without a large fight with Glasgow Audi. Due to issues previously with the "service" provided by them they said they would order in and replace the tips as a "good will" gesture :roll: . Booked car in to have them fitted and also to have first service done at the...

Re: Regretful first post

This is one of my worst nightmares and I commend the original poster and the other guy who had his car taken for being so calm about it, or at least on here anyway. Doesn't seem to matter how many precautions we take if they want it they will get it, I'm happy you both got your cars back with minima...

Re: Trip to Germany and Limiter

That would probably be around 174mph Actual then. Had my RS4 over at the start of the year and it topped at 168mph on the speedo which would be around 155mph actual. I assume the MMI on the RS6 is similar to the RS4. If you go into the settings for the nav you can change the set up of your readouts ...

Re: What car to sit alongside your RS4?

Something a little different to the suggestions above...You thought about a Lotus? I've Got an Exige S to go with the RS4 and i think they work well together. Similar speed/performance wise but two utterly different driving experiences.... http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q116/simonf82/B8F98705-71...
