Lol, I should have said to make it understeer less rather than prevent it. Apparently the skinnier front tyred cars understeer more.

I saw one one in the flesh today in the Piccadilly show room London and IMHO thought it looked great. Obviously needs lowering by 4 inches all round. The interior was cool too. A bit over plastic fantastic, the steering wheel was really smart. Overall a little too small but given that there is no RS4 saloon I would say it's an option for me maybe. It certainly looks better than the BMW M2.

^ no way, that’s the first I have heard you speak like this... Does that mean, you’d consider replacing the B7 with one?

I like my audi’s I had me heart set on getting the rs3
But it looks too boring and the seating position is terrible, made worse by how good my M2 is.. m2 looks a million miles better on the Rd too.
