No doubt the rozzers didn't have any evidence you were speeding. Lucky!

Got the Q7, bloody great bus, I hate it.

Anyway, everyone at Audi has been great and I look forward to getting things resolved and getting my sorted car back with some goodwill to sweeten things up.

I've thought over night and getting rid of the S4 would be a last resort.

It might grow on you. I actually quite liked it. What spec is it?

Not sure. It's a 4.2TDI and has very little spec. Doesn't have parking display, no MMI, no nav etc. It has adaptive air suspension which is really weird and it does have some poke. Overall though its way too big and boat like.

No way - sounds like a death spec to sell then ie big engine no spec!

Sline or S?

I had an s line plus which had 21" segment alloys, nav, camera etc

My guess is its an SE or worse. Same as all Audis; you have got to spec them up.

When you get the S4 back you will realise you've made the right decision and driving the Q7 will make you miss the S4 even more, by the way any strange noises coming from that Q7?.
