B7 Loon traded at the end of July for a lovely looking RS5 with all the kit + ABT exhaust.
3 months later, its gone! I could not get on with it, not could the family and the over run on startup made me the most unpopular person for pre-8.00 weekend drives - the ABT was just too much (and gave the wife a headache!)
So, what now.
Picked up a Suzuka grey B8 RS4 today, and already feel at home with it.... Sports exhaust is just the right volume and this has all the kit.
Its good to be back in a 4...

The beast looks great, congrats on the new toy.

A bit disconcerting at first but very good once you are used to it and start to trust it.Silverfox42 wrote:
