Could get a C6 RS for that much and thats a hell of a lot more car for the money, with spec oozing out of every orifice :D

otherwise its just a TT ...
an RS4 would "just" be an A4 if it had a 2.0 TDI in it, right? (albeit witha bit of a body kit) Same for an M3.

An RS4 would be £65-70k in today's money.

Haha

I wondered who would give it back, there must be dozens of parts only specific to RS4.

Our local audi stealer is having an open weekend soon, I think I may go and have a blast in the TTRS they have.
Does sound as if it's worth a try.

You had the RS4 Cab DK, it just ticks so many boxes I would find it hard to change.

Good luck with the new motor.

LOL, I expect you'll understand C U L8R (thanks 8 year old daughter)?

I am returning your cup of "TOLD" as it's a bit bitter.

The RS4 has a tuned S4 engine, DRC that fails (I know I had 2 fail in 12 months ownership), bose (which is <beep>...as it is in the TTRS actually), never made the 414bhp it was supposed (mine was 369), brake disks which warped after 13k miles (weight issue I guess....the car's not mine)....what else am I missing?

The TTRS has a bespoke 5 pot that sounds the nuts, embossed seats as standard, indicators in the wing mirrors as standard AND they fold, piping around the floor mats as standard, MFFBSW, 2 very small back seats and it has a racing car-esque fuel filler cap which all thye chicks dig. :rocker:

The TTRS is the fastest car in the world, it's basically an R8 with a better body kit and you know it!!

HAGWE.

Agreed,

There may be a few issues with the RS4, but for a 5 year old car it still turns heads.

Will the TTRS still do that in 5 years? I'm not sure it will.

I still want a run in one though.

The RS4 has a tuned S4 engine
isnt it a detuned, decylindered lambo V10 ?

DRC that fails
its bloody good though isnt it !

never made the 414bhp
mine makes 390PS ... close enough not to notice

brake disks which warped
you obviously didnt use them hard enough !

The TTRS has a bespoke 5 pot
thats shared with the RS 3 and forthcoming Q3S

that sounds the nuts
il give you that

embossed seats as standard
same as normal TT Sline

The TTRS is the fastest car in the world, it's basically an R8 with a better body kit and you know it!!
tbf, it did keep pace with an R8, but has nowhere near the street cred, noise, looks, balance









Dont get me wrong ... I do love the TTRS, but for me, its not special like the RS 4 is... its just a very fast, very clinical TT

BTW Hodgy - I have zero idea what "C U L8R" means, the yoof of today can't speak/write English, so it seems. Also, it pains me to think that you defer to your 8 year old daughter to produce 'humorous' content for a car enthusiast forum. What next, Telly Tubby jokes or maybe some interesting Tomas the Tank Engine story arcs? Is Ringo Starr helping you whip up your next witty post before you both drive off into the sunset, two-a-breast, in your TT?

And there was me thinking my sarcasm was obvious (embossed seats...indicators etc.)!! Oh well. But please don't take the pi$$ when you started it with the "TOLD" thing. Next you'll be saying you "OWNED" me LOL :bigwave:

(BTW - read C U L8R really slowly, should be easy for you, and then you'll get it) :sleeping_2:

My point re: the 5-Pot was referring to the fact it wasn't a derivative of an engine already in a TT or it it the 4-Pot with an extra cylinder?. re: V8 in RS4, I stand corrected if it in fact a V10 missing cylinders rather than the same engine that is in the S4.

Oh I got your 'sarcasm' Hodgy, it was very clear, it just wasn't funny.

C U L8R?

Image

...I still ain't got it. Lemme try very slowly - C U L8R = [see] [yoo] [el] adjective 1. being one more than seven [syn: eight] OR noun 1. the cardinal number that is the sum of seven and one [syn: eight] [ahr] - add it all up and it's just not Engriiish. Don't worry though, I'm sure if you keep explaining the joke, it'll be super funny by the time I get it.
