Just taken mine 3000 miles around Germany (from North Wales) - the only thing that broke was the underside tray which came loose at 130 mph on the autobahn. Took it to the nearest Audi garage and they fixed it for free.

+3 (I think?)

That's always been my approach to my RS4, it's not meant to be wrapped up in cotton wool and treated like fragile glass - it's been designed to be driven and that's what I enjoy doing!

Unfortunately my circumstances have been such that I just haven't had the opportunity to drive the car as much as I would have liked. I didn't plan on the car being a daily driver,and as it's turned out I just haven't used the car anywhere near as much as I thought I would.

Doesn't change the fact that I enjoy keeping the car in good condition so that when it's cleaned,it looks (and sounds) amazing.

I do hope you waited for them to come back and had a word.

No way the rear arch would have cleared that if you had to drive out straight I'm guessing?

No if I'd waited on them coming out I would have punched them!!

Even if it was a woman!

The car hardly had a panel on it that wasn't either dented or scraped,I doubt they would have even been bothered about it even if I had waited n said sowt.

People just don't give a sh*t… I've learnt my lesson a few times now. Having kids in the car helps as you can use parents spaces (sometimes even if you don't have the kids with you!)

It enrages me to be honest.

Have to admit, I'm struggling to justify mine right now - it's my daily driver and I get about 8mpg :/

With 2 kids we always take the mrs car since the car seats are always in it.
