NEWBIE ;)

Post by WRS4 » Tue Feb 28, 2017 9:17 am

I thought i would say hi as i am hoping to be a regular here at some point. I have owned a bmw m3 in the past and i will admit i loved the thing, but a few years back i had to sell her in order to start up a new business and i was gutted.

Anyway moving on, i am in the situation where i have some spare cash and want to buy another performance car and have thought about another m3 but its a case of been their, seen it, dont it. So i am looking at buying a RS4 within the next few weeks or month.

I would welcome any tips /advice as to what to look for as in good points but also bad points when buying a rs4 as i have never owned an audi before.

cheers in advance

Welcome Newbie :D

If you've not found it yet, there's plenty of good advice in the FAQ thread at the top of the B7 page - DRC, oil cooler/pipes etc

Otherwise, just ask. Plenty of knowledgeable peeps on here who've helped me loads.

And keep your eyes on the cars for sale section. Member's cars for sale are usually v well looked after.

Welcome Wayne!

As stated above, there's a good FAQ thread which I used to buy my car too. Best advice I can say is be patient and be prepared to travel as good ones are not always easy to find! I went to Edinburgh to buy mine (which I'm selling on here btw! and also here: www.gillani.co.uk)

Good luck with whatever you buy - they are awesome cars and the V8 growl is sublime!
