Hello! New RS4 reserved

Post by ricisbest » Sun Apr 03, 2022 5:14 pm

Hi. I'm new to this forum, but been lurking for a while. Just saying hi :beerchug:

I've recently put a reservation on a brand new Carbon Black RS4 that a local dealer had in stock (preconfigured but unregistered). Got a few £k off RRP so it's a similar price to some lightly used ones I've seen on autotrader!

Should be picking up next week all being well - looking forward to it! I've not owned an RS product before but have previously had an S5, and a BMW M4.

I'll post pics here when it arrives!

Just in time for the weekend, what a beast, let us know how you like it!

Enjoy it! Make the most of that heated wheel while it's still nippy in the mornings.

Thanks folks! Drove it back 50 miles home from the dealer. And pleased so far.

It's a non-DRC car so was worried a bit about ride but its pretty refined really. :)

Getting it ceramic coated on Monday...

lovely car, congratulations.

I had the same reservations re non-DRC, ordered without in the end so good to get further confirmation that ride is ok

enjoy your new car!

Hi: Just a quick update as done about 1000 miles now and starting to get more confident in the handling, and as it's run in properly now I'm starting to feel more comfortable going through the rev range!

Looking forward to taking it on a trip to South Wales tomorrow for a work meeting.
