    I did look across and wave
     
  3. Did you sorry didn't see bud ! I had me daughter in the car who said I like that car more then yours ! I've only had mine two weeks ! Did think maybe I should of got a a R ! What is the colour nimbus ? Looked really good.got any pics ? Had it long ? What is the difference between the models ?
     
  4. .R is around 125kg's lighter in total than an R26;

    Carbon Bonnet; removal of all but drivers airbag; plastic rear windows; lightweight carbon Sabelt fixed back bucket seats and 5 point harness; no rear seats; optional bolt half rear cage; optional lightweight Titanium exhaust are the main differences;

    Same power, same gearbox diff etc, different shocks for the weight reduction

    Sounds good, I'm just off junction 8 but the car only really travels to a friends in oxshott. Audi sounds a beast.
     
  9. I work in Oxshott sometimes on the crown estate. Building new houses.
    Yep the Audi is a love hate relationship ! When things go wrong you know it's going to cost a lot ! But when everything is running perfectly it is a animal and will beat a lot of serious fast cars ! Very good in the wet !!
    Not the best at corners but it's 300kg more then the R26 I've had it for nearly 9 years and will never sell it ! The spec
    2001 B5 RS4
    Milltek catback
    Milltek 3"downpipes
    ITG panel filter
    RS2 drop links
    H&R fat anti roll bars
    Bilstein PSS9 coilovers
    413 fuel pump
    RS4 B7 front brakes
    wagner side mounted intercoolers
    MRC remap with launch control and flatshift
