if you were excited about Performance Car, you'd better sit down;
Here is a summary of the mag;

Page 18 - Ben Williamson's page is about RS4 engine problems (just 1 page!)

Page 26 - Whole page is Unit 20 advert, nice one Grizz :P

Page 27-30 - Andrew Chapple writes a 4 page buying guide

Page 45-48 - Editor HRH Paul Harris writes aout his experience of RS4s with pics of the press car that go torched, a big pic of Jay Kay and pics of a green one that went wrong a lot recently.

Page 57-61 - A full reprint of the road test from 2001 with W117 HJO, Misano Red

Page 63-67 - Peter Noad talks to RS4 owners Carl Stoakes, Phil Carroll, Graeme Penman, Mike Brooks.

Page 72 - Small pic of an RS4 advertising new specialist in Bham
I am all excited now and I have a copy!

You may shed a tear for your old B5 :(
It in WHSmith but maybe not all and other newsagents can order it.
It too can oiften be found on Audi main dealer coffee tables but they are an independent publisher.

Feb issue of Audi Driver (B5 RS4 special)

Post by NBirkitt » Sat Jan 30, 2010 6:09 pm

Just to confirm that we now have office stock of the Feb issue of Audi Driver which is an 'RS4 special' (B5) Not officially due on sale until Wed Feb 3

Apologies to those whose cars are in it (Carl Stoakes, Graeme Penman, Phil Carroll and Mike Brook) and were sent Jan issue by mistake (seems our admin girl didn't realise that the Feb issue was in stock because it arrived much earlier than usual and when I asked her to send the latest issue she sent what she thought was... )

Anyway, any other B5 RS4 owners who were interviewed will appear in the second installment next month... :)

I'm not going to scan the whole mag but here are some selective scans to get you to go and buy it.
If you can't get a copy I am sure Neil Birkitt can arrange to send you one for a good price.
