Thinking of losing my 8V FL S3 Sportback for a B8 RS4 as want something bigger and more “special”.
What’s the B8 like as an everyday car? I’m
not so worried about running costs or fuel as I do max 5k miles a year.
Like most I have never owned a 4 litre V8 (but grin ear to ear at the thought). Reviews from the time of launch talk about how the power is all at high revs, but day to day I will not be hammering it. The S3 is great for my driving style and the odd burst. Does the B8 feel average or even sluggish at lower revs? Interested to hear from anyone that has had one for a decent amount of time.
still looking for a decent one to test drive. Most examples available now have 30-40k miles. What sort or faults or servicing issues should I be considering at this age and mileage?
cheers guys
