Irish 08 RS4 Optics?
Irish 08 RS4 Optics?

Re: Irish 08 RS4 Optics?
Isnt that a very rare black edition, came with optics, piano inlays, titanium alloys and seat backs in body colour. i think they should also have suede steering wheel and gear stick which this one doesnt seem to have. There was a white version to but as far as I am aware there was only ever one white car in the UK.
Re: Irish 08 RS4 Optics?
This rare alright! I rang them, dont seem to know to much about it, says its a Irish car, 2 min converstaion!
The red seats wouldnt be my first choice, but in real life they were not that bad.
The lad selling it was on here, he was a decent bloke too, so its a genuine motor if its the same one!
I think I say that in real life, its a nice car and the pics do not do it justice. Sure its Daytona grey, but thoes pics make it look very dark.Scatman wrote:Saw that before... it's nice!

Re: Irish 08 RS4 Optics?
First Carzone ad - it looks like one of the rare run out models to me and steering wheel is suede, albeit worn looking.
I saw the white version about 18 months ago on that site and it too had the titanium and storm trooper bucket seats.

Actually looking at the enlarged pic of the stearing wheel, like JackS4 said.... its looks like its just worn downARSEY4 wrote:Isnt that a very rare black edition, came with optics, piano inlays, titanium alloys and seat backs in body colour. i think they should also have suede steering wheel and gear stick which this one doesnt seem to have.

Re: Irish 08 RS4 Optics?
What with the price on the RS4 in Ballsbridge, a bit steep
http://www.carzone.ie/search/Audi/RS4/4 ... annel=CARS
the steering wheel doesn't quite match the condition of the rest of the car above alright

Re: Irish 08 RS4 Optics?
Funny, when it first came for sale, I rang because they said the car had 5900 kms on the ad, so it would have made sense re: the steep price, the guy didn't undersatnd why I wanted to trade in a 2007 black RS4 for a hem.. 2007 black RS4.. when I mentionned the extremely low mileage he went to check something... then said sorry it is 59 thousand kms.. tosser!..plummer wrote:What with the price on the RS4 in Ballsbridge, a bit steep

Re: Irish 08 RS4 Optics?
I don't know if its me but the red seats don't seem to wear off as much as most other colours around the bolsters etc...edge wrote:This rare alright! I rang them, dont seem to know to much about it, says its a Irish car, 2 min converstaion!

Re: Irish 08 RS4 Optics?
It's not like you think. You wouldn't get anywhere close to that amount for a car on uk reg. Any car on Irish reg has had thousands in vehicle registation tax paid. It applies to all new cars sold in Ireland and all cars imported into Ireland. So if someone here buys a uk rs4 they then have to pay about 30% of the Market value of the car to the government in order to register it. Irish citizens driving uk reg cars will get heavily fined and car will be ceased.moto15 wrote:Crikey think ill take mine over to Ireland when i want to sell it

Blimey - Ireland (and NZ) makes you realise how cheap cars have got in the UK in the recent past.Scatman wrote:It's not like you think.

Re: Irish 08 RS4 Optics?
Weird how the one with the red seats doesn't have the 'Audi Exclusive' badge in the door cards.
I have the red seats (also with daytona) but not the red door cards and I have the badges
