Just found this on the Auto Express web site.
Quote:
When the A4 Avant makes its debut in December, there will be two new additions to the engine range. The old 2.5-litre V6 diesel will be replaced by a common-rail 2.7-litre unit, offering 180bhp, while a new 2.8-litre V6 FSI petrol powerplant will be available. An RS4 model will be unveiled in just over 12 months' time, with a 420bhp turbocharged version of the 4.2-litre engine, based on that fitted to the current S4.
Roll on 2005.
