Yarp, it's lush!! Nice chap selling it too. He gonna take it to Audi during the week as he thinks one of the shockers is playing up at the same time doing an health check for me. Wheels are mint, exhaust looks to be standard valved ones, strange. Will check the operation of the vac system tomorrow, slight bumper sag at the front but that's splitting hairs :)

Ignore the bumper sag matey most dealers dont bother setting them up properly after removal,do suss why its been off though as its not part of any routine servicing but could be oil cooler pipe replacement etc,sounds like its from a good background and cant argue with it going for an inspection just make sure they know one end of an RS4 from another as many dont with them being fairly rare.It sounds like your onto a possible purchase vehicle if it all checks out,good luck there awesome allrounders

Pretty sure the RS4 has height adjustment on the drivers seat to help you peek over that bonnet.

Go to their website for phone number:
http://www.tracker.co.uk/

Prices here, but depend on which model you have:
http://www.tracker.co.uk/b2c.html

You can go for either an annual or 3 year subscription. I thought there was a lifetime option but couldn't see it just now.

Does the car already have a Tracker fitted and you want to activate it or are you looking to get one installed?
