Just to say, if anyone is thinking of buying, this one is about as good an example as they get. I have seen robs many times now and I am always embarrassed as my car always looks filthy next to it.

I'd echo chemical_ali's comments.

Minter.

But you need to hold onto it mate...we'll show a clean pair of heels to those M3 drivers in due course...

I'll also vouch for the car - sounds great, looks great, and the dyno plots are real

Only problem is the welsh connection, so watch out for traces of sheep...

I'm afraid that I already did it - after a total of 7 RS4s - 4 B5s and 3 B7s since 2002, I've now defected and have a Nissan GT-R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, no deals!

I'm happy to hold on to the RS4 until the right deal comes along - as had been said before it's only when you really work your way through the alternatives you realise just how difficult these cars are to beat - 4 years after going into production. So I'm in no rush :)

Agreed. Had a little trial of a C63 Touring today and as glorious as the engine sounds, I was disappointed that it did not have that much more rear leg room and the cockpit just wasn't as ergonomically sound as the RS4.

On a bone dry day the C63 was always trying to break traction when pushing on, hate to see what it is like in the wet. Salesman wasn't overly keen on me pushing it either. All said though had a lot more grip a composure than I thought it would have.
