I don't think Emerald Green was available (outside their any colour option)??

There was a purple one, it looks like Merlin but that wasn't the name..... Also seen an Audi Berry one at ADI a few years ago....

Must have been typing that when you posted Lee.....
The more I think about it, the Merlin colour and the Berry would have been special order colours so not really colours that were likely to be sitting in dealerships at the time......

The brochure in the downloads states what the standard colours were for the RS4 ... http://www.rs246.com/index.php?name=Dow ... oad&sid=12

There were only 6 basic colours to choose from, so the rest are special order.
