RS246.com Forum :: The World's #1 Audi R, S and RS Enthusiast Community

I Was looking at another diesel to replace my beloved Volvo S60 D5 (Now in the hands of my OH) , as good as the Volvo was it lacked the excitement of my previous Volvo 850 T5 (MTE mapped) wagon.

Anyway I lost the will to live looking at another diesel so bought a B5 S4 Quattro Avant instead

These first two weeks have been a case of love at first sight....I'm truly smitten.

I Spent the first weekend out in the garage cleaning and polishing.
Also torqued the wheel bolts, set the tire pressures and generally checked fluid levels and tinkered with her to my hearts content.

Some pics:

erm.........Thanks for the warm welcome



Anyhow, I'm absolutely loving the S4, can't believe the grip it finds (on Uniroyal Rainsport 2s) even on the dusting of snow and hard frosts here in Rural Berkshire.

Proper oldskool that. Any mods planned?

Stealthy colour too!

So stealthy we didn't see it to welcome you.

Looks good, welcome.

lol Thank you chaps.


Thought I'd joined the wrong forum for a moment

Love the turbine smoothness on the one I bought for my wife to use earlier this year. Best looking A4 in my opinion still. Like the cream leather interior on your car, perfect colour combination.

Minor update:
She went in to my trusted independent today for a service and a full once over, She's been given a clean bill of health...zero fault codes, nice and dry underneath...Technician commented that she was a great example and in very good condition all round.



Always a relief with a new"old" car.

Lovely looking S4.

Welcome, nice looking S4, but she could be treated to a new coolant tank

Update:
She went in to the Audi dealership today to have the radio code retrieved (Audi offer this as a FREE service, although one dealer I rang was trying to charge £35 to do it).


For an older car the stereo is surprisingly good (Six disc multi-changer in the boot).



Then took the long way home.














Have done over a thousand miles in her so far, absolutely thrilled to bits.

Very nice

Welcome.

My Video...I know it's not the best, I'll share it anyway as it's better than some of the ones people upload like the many "listen to my car ticking over" vids.

Time for a clean:





And MissB's S60, other than a puncture (repairable) no issues at all since handing over (further details see other thread):
