RS4 London - Audi Forum

Post by EuroSag » Mon Jan 23, 2006 3:21 pm

Has anyone/did anyone see the RS4 that was at Audi Forum in London?

A mate of mine said it was/or still is in the showroom, but it hasn't got any VIN plates?? The dealer said it was just for publicity and would be crushed afterwards. :?

Never heard of this before.

Dunno, I could take a walk up there but it is too cold!!!

Sounds a very odd story though, unless it is an engineless shell.

Audi brought a pre-production TT Quattro Sport to the UK unveiling at a TT Owners Club event without VIN's. They confirmed it was going back to Germany for crushing after the event.

Standard procedure for Audi -- pre production test cars are built without vins - once all use has been had they get crushed - COMPLETE - nothing removed no trophys kept.

When they launched the TT originaly they brought 70 LHD pre-pro models for the dealer network to test at Millbrook - quite a sight 70 TT's in a circle months before they were meant to be in the country -- cracking day out that was!
