Hope that helps...

Si
... the ad does mention H&R springs etc, does this not imply the DRC has been replaced?

seems good to me shagga, its got most of the things you're after & is local, plus dont forget to factor in the fact that its one of the cars that falls into the lower RFL bracket so will save a few hundred £'s a year

I'd be interested to know about the v8 badge thing, have seen a couple with the badge near the indicator repeater.

They didn't come as standard, with the S4 and S5 came with them people have bought them to put on their RS4s. Better to invest in a Milltek et al and let people know the proper way. I've seen plenty 2.0TDi's with 'V8' badges as well....... :roll:

Going to view the local one tomorrow morning and the 3 in the Bournemouth area on Sunday.

I'll let you know how I get on - I may even be able to post on the welcome board (fingers crossed).

Thank you. I'm being patient and just want to get it right.

Not looking forward to putting another 300 miles on mine though but needs must.
