Black RS4...

was browsing the Piston heads website whilst avoiding writing my boring finance forecasts and read this advert -
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/399384.htm Thought it was an interesting fact that there were only 42 Black ones built in the UK... I've got one of them so was just wondering where the others had gone?
Oh and finally a shout out to Ed and Andy from APS again to say thanks for the continued great service and support. Had a wheel bearing go and it resulted in Audi messing up and not delivering the part so Ed drove out to collect it for me! Stunning service (and not anything to do with the newly accuired Golf Edittion 30 that he's just tuned and re-mapped to around 330Bhp that he used to collect it...

There's definitely at least another black one that was imported - someone here bought it up north in early 2007.
The same Pistonheads seller has previous misquoted the number of some of the rarer colours (i.e. Denim Blue which there are at least 3, he said 2) which makes you wonder how many were grey imports and his info is from Audi UK.
Simple1 has got one and there was one at APS last year X*** AEN I think. There was a very iffy one on Pistonheads too with rear end damage.

There must have been a few written off, stolen, etc.

..I am creating an unofficial register via images so don't worry. you should be more worried I have a pic

Your car inspired me to WD40 my oil cooler unions
The blue one is mine, the Silver one was Ed's and is now (a local to me) Ash318's though with Sportec wheels now.
Was the 5th gear question for me?
