In for the ride...

Evenin` all, just registered on here as the new boy, with the excitement building towards this Saturday, when I collect my Audi RS5 !

It`s not even nearly-new - `12 plate actually - but it`s only done just over 20k miles, and I`m buying it from an Audi dealer.

It`s in Daytona Grey, with black leather, and 20` rotors.

To say I can`t wait, is a massive, MASSIVE understatement...............YEEEEHHAAAAAA !!! :jump:

Anyway, glad to be joining you lads on here, in what already looks like THE forum to be on for all things RS !

I`ve never owned an RS before, so I`m pretty new to all the terminology, but I`ll get there eventually.

Past history is that I`ve owned all sorts in the past (nothing too exotic mind), with my recent highlight being an E92 M3, so it will be interesting to see how the RS compares with that...

I have an S3 at the moment, which, whilst being a good car, just isn`t ticking the boxes for me.

Roll on Saturday then !!

None yet Toby; car`s coming on Saturday, or rather, I`ve a 650 mile round-trip to collect it ! :shock:

Bit of a detailing session planned for it on the Sunday though, so pics will follow then.......cheers bud.

I came from a c6 rs6. Straight line it was bloody amazing, but lacked finesse, I really enjoying the b8 now!

Already seen the thread about your wheels mate; very, very nice, and they really suit the car.
Well done on a good buy, nice one ! 8)
