We had some fabulous weather today so I managed to take a few new pics of the Cab when we went for a drive and a walk at one of our local nature reserves.

Nice! Sprint blue really stand out with the bush background.

No. I must admit that looking at some of the RS4's with SS+ I wish I had ordered it for the looks but when I ordered this I thought it looked low enough without the SS+ and I didn't want to sacrifice the comfort for the looks. However, reading some of the posts on here then some seem to think that the comfort isn't compromised.

You live and learn I guess.

Lovely pics Graham, the car is looking really stunning.

In my experience, SS+ certainly does compromise the ride comfort. This is more noticeable on crap roads such as the ones we have in London. The handling advantages are marginal at best after my extensive test drives on both standard and SS+ setups.

In my view, on normal roads, it would be pointless having SS+ (except for the lower look). There may be a slight advantage on track but then to really improve the handling characteristics one would be far better off with an adjustable coilover setup (e.g. KW etc).

Subjectivity is hard to debate - especially around words like comfort and compromise...

Let's just say that most people are happy with their choice!

Looks great

With ref. to SS, i have SS and find the ride too hard. Yes it looks fantastic but if i were to re-order today i would not get it

Lovely pics Graham.

SS isn't available as an option on the cab anyway.

Ahh pure sex, love it guy, i then it was you that purchased the famouse RS04 YES number plate?

Graham, ya pipes are HUGE!!

Nice Graham - the milltek pipes are sticking out a bit!

Thanks for all the kind comments chaps - much appreciated.
