Hello from potential RS4 B7 owner

Post by Briggy » Sat Nov 24, 2012 5:50 pm

Hello,

I'm thinking about buying an RS4 saloon and wondered if anyone would be prepared to let me have a look round their car and take me for a spin?

A bit about where I'm coming from - I currently own a BMW 335D coupe, but it's time for a change. I'm starting a new job in January, which will cut my mileage from 18k to 8k a year. This means that I can afford to run a car that's more for pleasure than for economy. My main criteria are a V8 engine, can carry my wife and 4 year old daughter and not American. Considered a Jaguar XK, but can't fit us all in comfortably. Ruled out a Maserati 4200GT due to reputation for eye watering maintenance bills and ruled out Aston DB7 as it's too old. Not interested in BMW M3 as I've spent the last 6 years looking at the inside of various BMWs. This has now lead me to the RS4.

I don't really want to turn up at a garage or a private sale and be unfamiliar with the car, so I wondered if someone would let me have a look around theirs to give me a feel for the car. I'm NOT asking to drive it. There's nothing like an impartial, informed view from someone who knows what they're talking about through experience.

I'm based in Tewkesbury, so can get to Bristol or Birmingham in an hour. If anyone would be kind enough to let me have a look on Saturday 1st Dec, I'd be very grateful.

Cheers,
Bryan
