Didnt think i would have you all stumped....

Image

was out in germany last week testing the new Yokohama Advan V103 (original fit on all RS6's and 7's) and this was at a trade centre near birmingham airport so thought i would have a look...yup, you guessed it was cheap as chips so just couldnt resist...!

Image

113k miles and three owners so a little tired and needs plenty done to it to get it spot on but was looking at something to modify anyway.....so expect Bilteins, carbon, alcantara, 20" rims, brake upgrades etc as plan to have this one a lot more agressive than the avant which was too good to heavily mod - IMO

first plan is to get it detailed 1st and see hopw bad the paint is then take it from there
Image

It was last MOT'd in Corby area but other than a handful of receipts and a service booked stamped i've got no other history on it.....does anyone know of it at all...?

Waiting for the V5 to come into garage so have a little breathing space if anyone has a horror story on it that I'm not aware of as guess it will be a couple of weeks before it turns up.

Any clues would be most helpful but the service stamps look like its been a motorway vehicle with 18-20k per annum..

Happy days

yes, great colour but it needs a big detail to get it shiny again like pauls

mcfly - like you said, how do you replace a near perfect car...

its got split folding rear seats and auto bootlid so havent lost too much practicality

needed more rear doors, so rs5, porker and gtr had to be crossed off list - RS3 was a great car but handling and engine note got me thinking of an RS4 again..

well done guessing correct sonny, cant believe paul couldnt guess correctly - think he's losing it in his old age
