Well, I've gone and done it !!

Post by teknobod » Mon Nov 24, 2003 5:22 pm

After selling my Civic Type R in September due to an unexpected addition to the family, I finally took the plunge and bought a well cared for Imola Yellow S4 Avant (courtesy of fellow member Golich [img]images/graemlins/beerchug.gif[/img]).

What can I say?

This motor is absolutely incredible. [img]images/graemlins/jawdrop.gif[/img]

Having previously test driven a standard S4 I was astounded by the performance of this car and it's so addictive.
(Mental note to self:- "I must sell these lead soled shoes!!" [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] )
A wonderful introduction to S4 ownership.

I use the term "well cared for" loosely! [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] (Sorry Patrick [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img])

Nice one Andy!
That extra torque from the remap really is worthwhile, don't you agree? [img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

Absolutely.
I could not believe the difference over stock.

Andy,

I'm delighted your delighted. [img]images/graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] I knew you'd be impressed. It's one quick car

Yes I'm a <beep> for bumping it - Soory [img]images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

I'm fecking paying for that now. Four nights under the bonnet of the neighbours astra diesel replacing his cylinder head gasket etc etc etc - not one of the best engineered engines, but it's coming together. [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I've got some pics for you will send sometime

Patrick

Not to worry Patrick, the yellow peril is having a little cosmetic enhancement as I type!! [img]images/graemlins/062802beat_prv.gif[/img]
