RS7, if size wasn't an issue that is a car that would be a pleasure to own. I test drove one and was given an opportunity to spend time with it and it feels so compact inside and when it's flying it's so quick and smooth that you are unaware how fast you are going. And most of all it has a well deserved presence. Let's not get started on the sound, the ground was vibrating whenever I put my foot down!
I think you will like it Styxz.


Looking forward to a bit more space RS Addict TBH, even got servicing quotes to see how much the extra running costs are going to be.

Comparing the RS6 & RS7 brochures, you get a lot more standard kit on the 7.

May still wait to see what the new RS3 looks like. Let's hope it gets announced next month :)

Apart form the car being too big to park where I wanted it to be, the bit that bothers me about the RS7 is that to date around 40 of them have been registered in the UK and 9 of them are on Autotrader for sale with some huge discounts, particularly the dealer ex Demo's. The monthly payments aren't too much more but you have to wonder whether they are due to lose another huge chunk of money. I mean, you can get a 2014 with less than 8k miles on the clock for sub £70k which has carbon, light, interior and dynamic pack, sports exhaust, Keyless, ceramics and B&O! That must have cost a few pennies short of £100k in the first place. and the same 9 have been up for a while now. 

 

I have no doubt it is a ballistic car but it is a big investment to make for more straight line speed which most of the time you won't be able to use and a bigger interior. as to running, local C7 RS6 owner is citing teens at best for average MPG, said his mapped C6 was more economical but the C7 is dynamically in another universe even at just shy of 2 tonnes.

So I think I may be next up to say I am seriously thinking of selling the RS3. I don't really want to but I am just trying to be a little more practical as I get older. I am also a little tired of having the constant worry of it been on my drive with no garage and making my house like fort knoxs, the sensors waking us up everynight and still worrying about it. What a S@&&&y world we live in hey to buy something yet someone wouldn't think twice about trying to get it And also The amount of idiots is seemingly getting worse on the road too and With the new model coming out and not able to afford that I think maybe the time has come. If anyone is interested PM me.
I know I will cry like a girl which I am when it goes but I also know I will re join the RS club at a later date as its just too much fun but for now it's time to say bye bye :(

It's an epidemic, run, save yourselves!

I think B8 S4 are really good value, and it's what I will go for when I sell mine, the supercharged engine tunes well, this link is a S5 cab, same engine just a lot heavier car, I think the performance for the weight is really good.
