Green RS4

What do you think of this?
Spec is unusual to say the least!
Also what's the lump in the splitter? Surely Homelink is more discreet than that?
It's got something similar in the rear bumper honeycombe panel too..

Tough spec, no FBSW or Buckets (I know some like the comfort seats) plus the mileage and I think it is all about what price you can get it for. I think they will find it hard to shift. Nobody really wants an RS4 nowadays unless they are an enthusiast and enthusiasts tend to want all the right options. I am still trying to work out if I pay for fuel and get an RS4 or get hit with depreciation and get a BMW 335d touring.

Love the colour, used to have a MKII Golf in a similar colour.

i think if you can get an 07 avant for £24k from Audi dealer thats not too bad, despite the poverty spec

Laser blinders, doubt would work as they target no plate/hl area

Very true, missed the lack of Navi.

You know what I don't think it is. My understanding is the switch sits in that pocket, but much closer to the driver. Plus Memory Seats could only be had via the Audi Exclusive route and that looks like a standard interior.

I think thats something else.

Poverty spec?? Agree with the ill-advised colour choices but IMO still very well specified

Thanks for your opinions.
My friend went to see it yesterday.
He personally likes the spec, lives in London and has to park on the road so likes the discreet look.

That is definitely the memory seat control at the front of the door pocket.

It's definitely not poverty spec, it has a sunroof and all the usual bits.
The steering wheel, comfort seats and body colour were no cost options so didn't save the buyer any money.
Also it has folding mirrors.

The Tempest 4 Cars RS4 is not as attractive as I think they are a broker so there is zero comeback, the Audi warranty costs Audi £1500 ish.
Also lack of Nav is £800.

He's made an offer and they seem keen to move, having slept on it overnight he will make a decision!

Think Oli had a deep green RS on here. Looks great in the flesh.

Do you have a closer picture of the memory seat control, I though it was built into the seats.
Money can't buy you love, but it can buy you a well sorted racecar
