lol I bought a new one back in Sept 2007... now found that same car and have it back after 14 years.
I've driven a lot of different stuff but this car was always in my mind. I wanted to put a fun V8 in the garage so had to make a choice, do I find an Ftype, Mustang or other. My view was:
- Its just fun
- it wont depreciate much if at all
- its a great spec - Saloon, Sprint Blue, Recaros, Sunroof, FSH
- It has recent Coilovers, Intercooler, Carbon clean, Clutch
- I can afford to bring it back to a good standard condition and drive it when I want
Its in for a full service and all fluids tomorrow, plus a look a a small oil leak to be fixed. Then to sort the paint in a few places, leather bolsters and the tyres, when i return the wheels back from dark to original silver

I might be saying different to others on here… but buy on condition and go for standard

…. Just going to be worth more later

collected the RS4 today forgot how great they are 77k miles feels a bit under powered hasn't had a carbon clean so will have to get this done! however my daily driver is an E63S 4 matic stage 2 800bhp 1100nm so maybe just feels a bit flat because of this! anyways love the RS4 glad to have one back in the garage!
