Red B7 RS4 avant - Kirkcaldy

Post by C17LJR » Sat Jul 06, 2013 12:04 am

Spotted this a few times now, parked outside the same house, looks to have replaced a B6 A4 in sline guise.

Anyone on here? If so I just live along the road

That might be my one, up besides the Sainsbury's retail park?

Yeah mate, just up from the roundabout? Not seen it there for a while though, you had an Octavia there as well?

Aye, that is my one you have been seeing parked up. It lives at my folks house from time to time when I am away on jobs so my mum can take it for a run every week. The guy next door has the Skoda. If it was a silver B6 Avant you saw that must have been the day the guy came over to pick up my old comfort seats! Will have to keep an eye out for yours next time I am through so I can have a look at your wheels!

Good stuff, gimme a shout when you're next through, I'm just along chapel level a bit.

Unfortunately the standard wheels are back on for now, and my mate is buying the bbs to go on his A5 sportback. Gives me an excuse for something new for next year though :)

Will do when I get back. If I remember correctly the B7 has a centre bore of 57.1mm and the A5 66.6mm. I take it the BBS's had hole reducers fitted when they were on your car then?

Yep, you're right. The bbs comes with spacers/fitting kit for the b7. We'll need to just get some spigot rings for the a5

You did indeed! I thought it was you but was hard to tell in the dark.

Just got my car back from Star today.

H&R anti-roll bars fitted along with new lower suspension arms as they were worn. Also had a new PCV stuck on as the car was using 1 litre per 1000 miles. Front parking sensor replaced and bumper height reset and now she is running like a dream! Well apart from the TPMS sensor issues but I just turned that off for now.......

Going to try and set-up a mini meet as there are a few guys on here that want to meet up.

Saw you the other week heading up towards Asda going past the Honda garage. I was in a Fiat 500 at the time so you would not have noticed me!
