Sorry no number plate...

Post by cocker » Fri Jan 29, 2010 10:30 am

But does anybody know this car based on mods and mileage?

Looks a pretty good one. What about the price? About right or a few £££ over?

Cheers

Looks like a nice motor, west tuning are a reputable company but not sure how their maps compare to the likes of MTM and MRC.

Good low miler example though.

Hope i've been able to help, good luck with the search

Can you remember the review? I guess it was a pretty good write up?

I don't think many mags will review a tuners work who places adverts with them and say it's rubbish but they said it was good.
I also recall the guy liked the fact the RS4 didn't depreciate and I think he bought from Fontain.

..and available to order as a back issue from http://www.autometrix.co.uk if anyone fancies it :)

I thought I had it but I stupidly gave the chap that bought my first RS4 all the mags with RS4 articles in as a form of closure (which obviously didn't work :roll: )

i think the same

they do appear to be premium traders with I guess quite a high target profit margin
