Well from reading an evo article back in 2006 I’ve always wanted an Rs4.
What a stunning car and More than impressed with the engine, maybe saying something different when the bills roll in!
I’ll add some pics and no doubt be asking lots on the forum.
Solar sunroof, chilled glovebox, adaptive headlights, wingbacks, flat bottom wheel, carbon trim, black optics. And yes the front bumper alignment is one of the first jobs required.

Great spec! Lovely vehicle. I had no idea chilled glovebox was an option.

What's the marks all over the bonnet?

Thanks...for the welcome.
I was mid wash when I took the pic hence the water on the bonnet. All waxed and polished now. I’ll grab a pic of the coolbox a bit later.

Thanks, not seen many with it, the solar roof is a nice extra, keeps the interior nice and cool when your out of the car. Also running the DRC which I really like. Above all the engine is the best, my first V8

Nice! I have to say I'd love one of those. I throw a 50L fridge in the back when I travel.

Looks lovely mate.
You can retrofit the cool box. There is a plug and play pipe you can get which can be used to have a cool glove box alone. Or the same can be used with the additional insulated box to have a proper insulated cooled section.

I’m fairly sure the fridge was from the factory. Well I’ve cleaned and reconditioned the leather, refitted the rear number plate and a coat of dodo wax. Wheels need a refurb and found a local company have given a good price. Will switch to readers rides sections and add updates as they happen

Welcome along. I very nearly bought that car. Travelled a long way to view and had loads of chats with Lou but bought another one. Chilled glove box are easy to retrofit they just connect in to the air ducts behind and use the aircon flow to chill. Enjoy there addictive.

Lou was a really nice chap and very helpful, I drove a few before I decided on this one, so far so good. It meant to be a weekend car for me but I can’t stop driving it
