Just picked my B8 RS4 instead of a B7.......

Well thought I should just say hi to you lot now I'm the owner of a lovely B8 RS4 13 plate, which is an amazing machine as you all know. I actually had my heart set on the B7 RS and have been looking on and off for the last 2 years......Until I went for a test drive in the B8 and it took me all of 5 mins and sold.
Not bashing the B7 in anyway as I love them, and have owned one, still think they are a more of a focused drivers car then the B8, But the B8 just does everything so well and ticks all the boxes.

Quick spec,
Sepang blue 2013
Sports pack, Diff, etc
Push button start
Active criuse
20'' rota's
Parking camrera
Lane asist
Heated front and rear seats
B&O sound
Memory seats

Thanks for looking Jay.

Congratulations great choice, the only thing I really miss from the B7 is the steering feel. Other than that, the B8 moves it all forward.

Enjoy it.
