My Gorgeous RS4 B7 is up for sale

Post by karl » Wed Mar 10, 2010 2:32 pm

Very sad to see this up for sale, it's a gorgeous gorgeous car and a beast to boot. A lot of additional kit on it as per ad. I've got that knotted feeling in my stomach.

Very nice example there and a very well modded one too! that will make a very very very happy buyer. That has all the modification work done to it.

have you had it on the rolling road after you had the work carried out, and also how do you rate the break upgrade?

Best of luck with the sale, reasonably priced too.

Thanks Sonny. Wasn't too sure how to price it; if I'd priced it including the cost of the mods it wouldn't have got any interest!

The Brembo Big-Brake conversion is awesome - apart from looking huge in the wheel, it grabs very firmly straight away with the slightest touch of the pedal. A well recommended upgrade imo.

Forgot to add that no, I haven't had it on the rolling road because tbh, the performance after the mods just blows me away every time, so much that I don't need to know the numbers if you understand what I mean.

As you say, lots of cars out there and fuel price increases do not help.

Do you think that the average RS4 puchaser may be put off by the many modifications? Is it worth selling all the mods separately, and it seems dealers are still keen on good stock. My 2 cents. :)

Or just enjoy the effort you have put into the car - it's a known quantity.

Out of interest, are the front brake calipers RS4 OEM but with bigger 380mm Brembo discs ? The calipers look OEM in the picture.
