Time for a change
Posted: Wed May 28, 2014 8:46 pm
So, after 2 and a half years, and with our second baby due within the month, I decided the RS4 was feeling a bit dated and it was time for a change.
After a bit if research I thought a new S4 Avant would be the best bet, so I tracked down a friendly Audi Dealer and arranged a test drive. I must say the Supercharged V6 mates well with the 7 Speed Auto and I was impressed with the performance, though it's not quite RS4 as standard, and the car feels much more up to date than the B7 cabin.
Anyway, back in the dealership a deal was struck, including 2 years free servicing, but we couldn't get where I needed to be for a brand new S4. So the B7 is going and I pick up an 8 month old B8 on Friday, fortunately for me it comes with the latest version of Audi's high revving V8! When it came to it I couldn't walk away from the RS's, but I think Daytona Grey will make a nice change.
