A new DRIVEN+ car review of the Audi RS4 (B8). What’s everyone’s thoughts? Did my COPART bought example fly the flag for our B8 version?

Certainly did. Thought it was a good review. The old B8 really is an excellent all rounder

Yeah I thought the review came out well and balanced. Glad the car didn’t disappoint
I’m still having issues with the exhaust valves sticking closed but nothing a screw driver can’t fix

I too thought it was a good honest review.
He didn't mention the handling, which for me was the biggest eye opener when I bought mine. I've no idea where the limits are and I'd definitely need a track day to find out.
Another wake up moment was autobahn travel, - you can tell where the car was developed! I had a few runs to Berlin and expected the high speed cruising to be effortless, but it was in a different league to anything I'd experienced before.

Funny you say that - my RS has developed this issue after being off the road for a few months in the summer! Going to need to give them a good clean out and free them up

Cannot wait to take mine on the autobahn - likely next year. Glad to hear it doesn't sound like it disappointed you

Was a good review as was Jayemm’s seems these cars that were battered for a hard ride and understeer are now being seen for Character and real world usability.
I also still think it is one of the best looking cars full stop!
