Iv done 3k in two months in mine and aside from the bloomin EPC light going on and off its 100%perfect
even got 23.3MPG average over those 3k !

amazing :D
23.3 MPG??? Your not driving it hard enough...LOL.
Suprisingly my wife gets around the 19 mpg while I always manage around the 20.5. Strange.

Fair enough - pointless getting a ban. Luckily my license is clean and we don't have many cameras up our way (apart from A1 that is)

Too true, still remember the phone call from my good lady explaining that oil was dripping from the Clio 16V engine after she changed down from 5th to 1st (instead of 3rd).....think the synchro may have been knacked but the engine defo was.

Too true, since I advised her the RS can pull 100 in third she can quite readily sit on the motorway in third or if I'm lucky 4th. I don't think I have ever known her to use 6th because her A2 only has 5 gears! :lol:

Bought mine in June 09 with 10,300 miles. I have clocked up nearly 5k since and it's only a weekend / evening car.

Excellent. It looks like Camberley Audi is the "Mecca" for B7 RS4's.

Thank you.
