OK....

The way it's written 'RS 4', I always felt it should be 'RS4' - always bugged me.

The fact I only have one.

No, RS 4 is correct.

RS used to stand for something special and so it is right to be on its own

RS stands for Renn Sport doesnt it....?

Ok...rant alert!!!

The petrol tank cap and the flap I just hate with passion; the whole design and correlation betwixt the two is about as much use as the Popes plums.

I mean the way that the cap just perches on the flaps edge is a precarious affair, leaving it prone to chips and scratches. Just looking the damn thing has it wobbling around like a plate of jelly being carried by a 5 year old that's just necked a litre of fizz. If you just so happen to be in a hurry and require fuel then you best be praying that the Popes plums are not just for decoration, because you go and pull the nozzle out, just a degree or two incorrectly, and the handle will knock the bleeding thing off so that it bounces around the bodywork. You can't even take advantage of those new petrol attendants' at Shell garages that'll fill the car up with petrol for you, due to fear of the dreaded 'cap swing'.

You'd think from the amount of time we spend standing in that position, filling it up with SUL, Audi would have paid particular attention to that area of detail...but no...it must've been POETS day for the design team when they reached that point.


Other than that

Brilliant

I still think it should be RS4 though...

I hate the fact that I don't get mine till the 15th
And that's even hanging in the balance as the fecking DVLA have a huge backlog of reg transfers which the current owner has to get done and hopefully have the docs back by the 15th

whats to hate the only thing bugs me is the handbrake , its a pain to use with the console , oh and the amout of fuel it goes through

Yes - German for 'racing' I believe (literal 'race sport'??)

The only thing I hate, is the red sticker on the RS badge under the bonnet that won't stay stuck down! Is everyone else's the same?!

Other than that, there is nothing I hate...I just adore this car. It's the best 'all rounder' I have owned.

Hah - yes. Abandoned it in the end an went for a monochrome look without sticker

The one thing that I hate, is the fact you can't get much more performance without supercharging,and they don't feel that fast!!

You need to move onto the GTR Silas!

I hate it that the holes in the brake discs are too small and clog up and I have to use a drill bit to get rid of the brake dust.

Er....clutch, oil consumption, fuel consumption, headlights (set for dip, main beams out, set for main, dips out), sports button (should default on), coil packs, we were all conned into believing they're 414 bhp, the way every BMW driver feels the need to prove their cars slower

+ 1 on that Silas! That was my only complaint, just not fast enough and you could get caught out so easily, still an amazing all-round motor though.

Feeling the need to keep her clean and in the best condition possible.
