Great pictures Mark, car looks fantastic. Will keep an eye out for you as I stay in dundee and RS 4s are not a common sight. Inspired me to do a bit of detailing myself this weekend ( weather permitting!)

Awesome job with the camera (and the polisher), a couple of those are probably the best shots I've ever seen of the RS4.

Wow! Excellent pictures Alex. Car looks great, which detailer did you use as I'm now thinking I should treat my car to the same?

Great results OP! Even though I've got a DA polisher I wimped out of using it on the RS4 and experimented on the old 3-Series estate instead with reasonable results.

I had the Audi fully detailed last month for the first time; it was badly swirlwd. 3 stage machine polish and wax, full interior detail including refurbishing the seat bolsters, engine bay detail, wheels, calipers and arches including hubs painted. The result is tremendous, but it was expensive and I've got to keep it looking nice now

Cheers for the great comments guys. The car is not quite mint but as close as I could find, just hoping I get to keep it for a decent length of time now.

Cheers fella. That's what it's known as! I find out this week if i'll be keeping it or selling it on. My wife's in the military and if she gets posted any further North I'll be selling the "Beast" as I don't want to be putting all those extra miles on it. Was a bit of a gamble when I bought it but worst case I'll have had my dream car for a while at least.

Hopefully we'll be moving south and I'll keep hold of it forever! :kissmyrings:

Some very nice shots there, the car looks fantastic. :thumbs: re detailing, I got a DA polisher last year and practised first on my van, the difference was incredible. However I'm pretty wary about putting it near the RS yet.

I was lucky enough to have a full studio photoshoot done on my car a couple of years ago which was amazing but I'd really like to get some good outdoor shots of mine done sometime. I'm pretty useless with a camera so I'll have to get a pro photographer friend of mine to take some for me. Just have to find some suitable locations.

Your studio shots were amazing! Really got thinking about getting it done on mine but I didn't fancy shelling out for it yet as I potentially won't have the car for long, fingers crossed i will keep it though. I'm trying to find an industrial type location, like a power station or something, only trouble is they generally have strict control of access.

I'll have a think about about possible industrial locations for you as I'm not far from you.

As said already, great work mark and great photos too.

Think we should definitely organise an afternoon for us all to meet up and get some snaps, plenty of us around :)
