Yes, the RS4 certainty leaves a lump in your throat when you have to say goodbye. I'm now in a Jag XFR, and I'm very pleased with the relaxed way it moves around, and astonishingly quick mid range grunt, but I'll be definitely moving back to the next RS4.

RE: Re: RE: i agree

I carry 250 - 300 kg of calibration weights most of the time in the back of my Avant, and she's just as lively under hard braking, whether loaded or unloaded. I think you just get used to it over time, but first time on an E stop, sh*t, I was just a passenger in distress with a steering wheel in my ...

psg001 Had the same concerns coming from E46 M3. And whatever you do, you are going to be worse than the VW. M3 was regular 300 miles to tank on my standard drive (A + motorway + jams), RS4 is consistently 230-250 miles. Although if you want to make more miles, backing off (60-70 mph in 6th) you can...
