Do you have any more photos of your car with your roofbox on. Got my eye set on a dynamic box but can't decide on the 800 or the 900.

Many thanks for your help, plus I like looking at your car!

Cheers,

Simon
What’s that - post more pics of my car?

Really like those Ispiri wheels.

I wonder if a set would look good on a c5 RS6. May have to add that to the list of things I would like to add to the car. 8)

I've agonised over this for months - but I've finally decided that I'll be selling the RS4. I'll probably put the advert up towards the end of the month, and I'll be trying to sell through the forum in the first instance.

It's such an epic car - but it just doesn't get used any more - a couple of times a month at best, even then only if I'm making an effort to put it to some use.

I get my driving kicks from the R8 now. For family duties - we actually do most trips in the Golf. My wife doesn't like driving the RS4 as she's used to an auto now, and doesn't like the exhaust. The plan will be to sell both the RS4 and the Golf, and replace with an auto family car - perhaps a B8.5 S4 or S5.

Or a C7. She will enjoy that!! :biggrin3:

Shame you are selling it but if it's not being used then some lucky person will get some pleasure from it instead. GLWS.

Great car, I actually tried to get Faisal to flip it as soon as he bought it because he beat me to the purchase from Kev.

Good luck with the sale when (if) you do decide to go ahead mate.

So several months on from "deciding to sell" - I, er, haven't sold!

Unfortunately though, some little sh1ts may have tried to take it off my hands for free a couple of nights ago!

So, yesterday morning - leaving the house, I noticed that the garage door was open (RS4 still inside - everything looks undisturbed, apart from a gtechniq mitt that was now on the floor - w4nkers!!).

Dashed upstairs to check the CCTV, and I see that at 3am, 3 teenage looking sh1t-bags in hoodies turned up uninvited.

One of them sat on a wall across the road, while the other 2 first tried the door handle of my wife's golf, before going to the garage. It only took them a few seconds to force open the garage door. They were inside the garage for a minute or 2, and then walked away, leaving the door half open. They looked around a bit, but didn't approach the front door of the house. They didn't take anything from the garage - although there were some items in there I would've thought they'd take.

From the CCTV, it doesn't look like they tried other houses adjacent....walked up to my house from one direction, then carried on walking up the road after they left.

I'm not sure what to make of this. Police think they were either looking for an internal door into the house (there isn't one), or checking the car is there and intending to come back (but then why leave the garage door open - so that I know they've been there?). Thoughts?


I've taken some steps to beef up security for the house, car and garage since (which, for obvious reasons, I won't be going into detail on here). However - keen to hear more ideas!
