Sad times :( - RS4 for sale

Post by adsgreen » Fri Aug 15, 2014 10:01 am

Hi All,

As per title really... after four years of bliss we've finally reached the stage where the boys are simply getting too big and no longer fit in the RS4. Sad decision but I need to re-jig the cars and unfortunately the RS4 will be moving on to pastures new.

Details:

I will miss her and I know I'll regret it instantly and probably end up buying another one but right here right now its what I have to do.
I already have new arrivals due soon to replace it and all is not lost

Oh - decided I quite like it here so no luck getting rid of me yet!

Thanks - Tried to be honest as I know how it can be from both sides.
I was lucky - my baby was relatively close to where I lived but after seeing how some travel hundreds of miles I'd hate to give false hope to people if it wasn't exactly what they wanted.

Oh no don't do it. Are you kids rugby rugby players? :D

You will be back after you have bought a diesel bmw tourer and realised life is over if you carry on driving it.

Not yet but given the amount of food they eat it won't be long!

Thought about it but in truth whilst I respect the r8 it's not a package I personally managed to get on with.
