Where are you based rocket? I've had mine for three years now and for the first two I only ever saw other ones that were down here on holiday! Now though there are a few more around permanently. I'm in a black saloon in and around around the River Camel area, others that I know of reasonably nearby are a mugello saloon (although I haven't seen it lately), a couple of sprint blue saloons and another black one.

you need to relocate to sweden

i think ive seen like 5 RS4's since 2006! The latest addition today, a silver/light blue metallic RS4 with horrible black zito wheels was standing at the airport... I did a walk around smiling like a baby on christmas eve and thinking it could be mine in a few weeks!!

I'm sometimes seen around the Truro area with my Daytona saloon, from Cornwall originally so visit when I can.

I was quite surprised to see a nice blue avant turn up in the school car park.
Needs a miltek though or I've just got used to the non res - stock is sooo quiet!

Ha! Certainly do. That is where the username came from. Had it for 10+ years online so probably not changing any time soon
Lived in NZ and surfed hardcore on my younger years and played hard, fast punk driving between breaks.
Probably a bit more mellow these days but still get wet as much as everything else allows!
Praa, sennen, porthtowan, Falmouth were my locals back then and went to St Austell college for my sins!
Where you to fella?
Damn I need to get down more.

Yup, in the winter you can barely move for the things. I think you'd struggle to go a day without seeing one up here.

Wadebridge born and bred, parents both from Padstow - live in Bodmin now. I also went to St Austell college (84-86). Been surfing almost 30 years, Polzeath is my local but I get around other places too (had classic Pentewan the day after the big storm). Been listening to punk even longer, used to be mainly British stuff but recently more American. All time favourites are Bad Religion, seen them five times now.
