Looking to buy an RS4 Avant / B8. Or better off with a B9?

Post by 6F4 » Sat Mar 16, 2024 11:22 pm

Hi All

I am looking to purchase a decent B8, ideally a forum car, black pack / murdered out, i believe the term is. (I have a bit of time to find the right machine, target date is end april 2024).

I'd like to enjoy the sound of a V8 as opposed to a later V6 model.

For starters I've seen this on autotrader ( https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-detail ... 0072751778 ) but the fact its had 6 owners puts me off a bit.


Q: In terms of age/reliability I guess I'm looking at decade old car with 90k+ miles, is this sensible?! Should I just move on from my dream of a high revving V8 and go for a newer V6 model?

Appreciate any light shed on / experience / opinions on the above!

cheers,

6F4

Here’s a thread from a few years ago discussing just that:
