Yup it seemed like it was to me as well, I did get your point, just wanted to lighten it up a bit...

Fair enough. I just thought it was pleasant spot, with the way the mist hangs over the road and the church in the background and no one around for miles (it was about 6AM). Perhaps it was nicer in person.

Should have committed and parked right in the middle of the road

The A4 Avant parked away from the rest of the public, had a clean in the morning.
I was close to chopping it in for the same year S4 Avant this month, but my wife talked too much sense. She knows I want a smaller car which will be possible in a year when our son is in school and doesn't have a pram. So probably gonna keep this until the warranty ends in September 2020 then look at something smaller and faster (this isn't slow at 5.9 to 60 but still).
Also the alloys on that car in the background.. wow..

Get it mapped
And those wheels are 3SDM 0.06's.

I did look into a map but as it’s our only car I can’t be dealing with any issues so want the warranty. I’ll probably pick up a 2018 S4 Saloon next year or a 2019 Mercedes C43.

Yes, it's sold, first person that came to view the car has just bought it.
If I remember correctly, you use to have a black S15?
I guess my expectations of the dream car were different compared to actually owning the car?
Don't get me wrong, it's a great chassis, the handling was incredible, it gripped and still went sideways when you wanted it to. But there was something missing, I can't quite describe what... At first my thought was power, but after driving 400hp S15 with very expensive parts, I ruled this out of the equation.
The way I look at it is, I reached my goal in owning the dream car at the age of 21, I'm 22 now. I had my fun with the car, it's time to move onto something else. My list of cars I want to own maybe isn't that long, but the issue is the cars that are on it, which are already shooting up in value at a crazy rate.
Seems like the logical upgrade! EnjoyTraded in the RS4 this week

Love the colour. RS6 is probably all the car you'd need - power on tap, comfortable and plenty of boot space. Friend of mine has one and swears by it.

Very nice.... These have aged so well!

They have, although next to the new one just released they do look dated. Mostly because the new one is a pretty big change.
Soldato
I'd still prefer the last one.... It still has more than enough power. And I'm sure it'll be as comfortable as the new one too.
It’s an incredible machine, big step up in power from the RS4 and previously tuned C63 in such a practical outfit. I’m not sold on the new shape yet with the rear diffuser etc but considering the price of the C7 now it was right for me, almost half it’s original cost with all the extras
