Hated RS4

Post by dog » Wed Mar 05, 2003 8:57 am

So why is it, that the significant others hate the RS4 so much?

She certainly does hate the RS4.
Why? :-
1- its to fast
2- its to uncomfortable
3- worried about carjacking
4- not enough room in the back for the kids
5- i moan at her if she gets it dirty
6- its yellow
7- she wants a Lexus

But who cares, she doesn't have to drive it as she has her own car, an Astra [img]images/graemlins/033102bad_1_prv.gif[/img]

A very interesting topic indeed.

My GF used to hate the RS4 because,

1. It is not a 2 door coupe.
2. It looks slow.
3. It is a family wagon.

After I bought the car for 8 weeks, she said she loves it because,

1. It is quicker than a Porsche 996TT.
2. Very understated.
3. Carry 4 people with no trouble.
4. Plenty of luggage space

Tell me about it.

My other half loves the car when she drives it. But nags me to hell to get rid.

You can't please women all the time so why bother.....

LOL.. the story of my life...
My wife doesn't like the RS6 because :

a) it's too fast
b) it drinks too much
c) Insurance is too high
d) I moan when it's dirty
e) She worries about damaging it.. ( She asks me about an accident.." Darling, I've bumped the car ".. me " feck you, how's the car" [img]images/graemlins/roflmao.gif[/img])
f) Worries where she parks it
etc etc

That's why I've just bought her a Zafira.. mega brownie points [img]images/graemlins/clap.gif[/img]
Now she will leave me in peace.. she's also said that now she has a people carrier I can get what a like.. no need for a big estate.. wohoooo.. 911 Turbo here I come [img]images/graemlins/FIREdevil.gif[/img] ,

no.. I enjoy the stealth bomber far too much to let go so soon [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]
============================
Now waiting (again!): Misano RS4 B7 Saloon.

My wife hates it because:
1, It is a toy. (I could not agree more with that [img]images/graemlins/nodder.gif[/img] )
2, It is too expensive (as I get older, the toys are gatting more expensive [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] )
3, It is too fast (no such thing [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img] )
4, I spend too much money on it (just the esentials, dear [img]images/graemlins/icon_lol.gif[/img] )
5, It is too uncomfortable (42psi does have that effect [img]images/graemlins/audiS4black.gif[/img])
6, It is not a Porsche (This is the best thing about it [img]images/graemlins/sekret.gif[/img])
7, It is manual (She should stop whinging and learn how to drive it [img]images/graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img] )

My missus used to like mine a bit too much, she used to wait till I was drunk and it was parked behind her clio, then she'd have to go and see her mates. Rather than move it I'd let her take mine to get some peace.

But then I had an MTM paddle clutch fitted. She set off to her mates in it, but turned round and came back for hers as mine was a pig to drive and she kept stalling it!

She hasn't driven it since, mission accomplished! [img]images/graemlins/jump.gif[/img]
