Driving it
What's it like to drive?
I have owned all sorts of cars over the years. I have owned for 3 years and still.no plans to trade in. It really does tick every box. Its civilised with the dog in the back for a family day out. On the right road (and with no animals onboard) hit the S button on the steering wheel and it becomes rip your face off fast!.....It drives very well indeed on all road surfaces.
What's it like to park?
Super low profile tyres do mame it frustratingly easy to kerb.

Oil Cooler needed replacing March 2013. Car was out of warranty but Audi still agreed to pay for 60% of the bill based on the fact that I get the car serviced regurlalry at main dealer.
What's most practical about your car?
Its an estate...or Avant to give its proper name !
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Favourite gadget, over & above the usual RS4 equipment has to be the 4.2 V8 !
