He was giving it full beans, which leaves me to beleive mine might have already been played with in the ECU dept. He pulled up next to me and commented that he could not keep up.

The car is going great. Its into the garage though on Tues. A click when I turn the wheel right, loose heat sheild, and the horn dont work properly.

Hi Chaps,

DAVE - are you saying that you believe the Griff to be faster??
I have just sold my Griff and my A6 and invested in the 1 car (had the RS for 2 weeks now) and I think there is no comparison the RS would eat the Griff for breakfast - but would like to meet one on a dual carrigeway??!!

Sorry to hear about your RS what sort of probs have you had - Hope its not a long list.....??

Hi mate,

Would'nt say it was faster but its not any slower :D

The list of problems i had with the RS is big and some can't be fixed even after 8 weeks of audi having the car.

Audi gave us a full refund which I've gone a spent on a nice new 4.5 Cerbera at the end of the day it can't be any worse than the audi + its faster :D

I think you might miss the griff.

Just to say I loved the RS when I had it but it was always at the dealers who seemed to know nothing about the car :cry:
