I think you're all missing the point of the feature. It was a 'cheap alternative' for the RS6 & Merc, Jason and Tiff were doing.

They only just got away with it with RS4, as I for one wouldn't buy one for 15k. Stating you can pick one up for 20k, would border on not so cheap. You can't pick up a decent M3 or C63 in comparison.

In my opinion a B5 RS4 would have been a fairer comparison.

She obviously loved your car, so well done !

I would however, check your seat-bolsters (her arse ain’t so cute these days, is it)

thanks for all the positive comments chaps :D makes me feel like all the time money and effort i've put into the car so far has been worth it !

Except from some wrong info in the piece I really enjoyed it.

I was sitting there with a little grin on my face, it really does still have some presence on the road that’s for sure.... plus she’s well right about how good that engine is!

I seem to recall the op saying it was a piece on 'Must Have Super Saloons'. For me a Ford and a Ford powered Rover don't quite cut it as this.
