Newbie to be

Post by fathom5 » Sat Jul 28, 2007 8:12 am

Hi, picking my RS4 up this week whenever I can get out of work - a Mugello Blue 4 door with as much kit as could be stuck into it.

Just want to say hi, and hope to enjoy using this place as much as the Pug forum for my other car.

Cheers

Andy

Residual Value!!

Basically, now RS4 production has stopped & the fact the press appear to be favouring the RS4 over the new M3, this will no doubt prop up the cars residuals a bit.

Ahhhh RV makes sense now..........cheers, brain not switched fully on this morning. Still getting over being told there is an RS4 waiting for me at the local Audi dealership....

CANNOT wait!!!

Lusted after an RS2 when I was a lot younger after seeing one in Nogaro Blue almost literally take off on one of the B roads near me, so to be on the verge of owning it's decendant has me pretty much foaming everywhere, nevermind the mouth....

One question though - who do people go to for insurance? I was thinking Adrian Flux on a limited mileage policy as it will be a weekend car for a few months, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Ta in advance.

Cool, cheers. Made the usual mistake of not looking through the threads for a particular topic.............then noticed immediately afterwards there is an insurance thread.........doh!
