One guesses that 'for some filming' really means multiple launches down a test track, treating it without respect because it doesn't belong to Car Wow kind of thing - there won't exactly be an orderly queue will there?

and Car wow get press cars from Audi, so why would they be asking the general public for a car?
Matt even had an RS4 for 6 months or a year.

If anyone does take them up then insist only you drive your car and jump the start. Anyone who has watched a car wow vid will know Matt always does.

Standing starts aren't a massive issue in Torque converter Auto's like they were on the old single clutch SMG style boxes or manuals

I don't suppose Audi UK have any press cars for the RS4 left - it looks they were all sold - off, especially after the order book closed last year - some of us even bought them...

What going to happen to it?

As long as the car is warmed up, what is the issue?

Do people not drive them as Audi intended ?

Well is driving down the road to 60 mph what they had in mind? Everything would be a 1.0 if that was the case

I let Lovecars borrow my car for the day, which included me driving it for a bit. Audi Press Fleet had no RS5's and assume the same for the RS4..
