Eagle 1679 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 Lacking in the looks department like alot of Audi's but interior looks good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) They don't ake much to look fairly good in my opinion - kind of like e30's in that way (although e30s do look better). Its the 195kw 400Nm and AWD for $16k in a fairly sporty package that gets me going. Edited February 16, 2009 by bravo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CamB 48 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 I wonder what they mean by an M3 being a grippers car? I find it strange seeing the engine in those quattro audis since it is inline not transverse (wife has a Golf). I couldn't buy the S4 - I find the idea of the potential maintenance bills on that engine even scarier than the ones on my M3. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bravo 35 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) You sound like Keiti! I like yellow lol. You should have seen the Ford RS500 in Kerikeri yesterday. I didn't have my camera, so didn't get pics. Was hoping it was back today so I could take some for Chris. Bright yellow. Edited February 16, 2009 by bravo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CamB 48 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 gripper = wanker? Sounds about right. I have noticed its quite hard to drive and change gear with my hand on my d*ck but I thought it was a problem with the car, not me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 693 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 Link If I could bear to sell the e30 and give up my plans for it, I'd be onto this in a flash. Unfortunately I have 3 cars already and can't afford a fourth. As said these are more a Grand Tourer and less a Sports Car, was following a couple round Taupo track last year and had to laugh at their uselessness. Also, maintenance can be a bit tricky on them, they are reliable enough but when something does need doing it is expensive. Would sooner a much newer and faster Subaru Legacy GT. f**k.

Nic325i 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 While we are on the topic of audi's check this beast - http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-202160685.htm Read a bit about these a couple of years ago when considering A4's - apparently nowhere near as quick as 286 hp would indicate (same power as 3.0 M3), very peaky power delivery mentioned from memory. There was a 220ish hp version of the MTM that most people reckoned was a better drive. S4 engine should be reasonably reliable - 2.7 litres and only 195kw is not overly stressed. Test drove a blue one near western springs some years back - acceleration was license losingly rapid pulling out from intersections within the city.

Nic325i 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 I find it strange seeing the engine in those quattro audis since it is inline not transverse (wife has a Golf). Most (all?) A4 and larger Audi's have longitudinal engines. Cynic would say they did it to help get more of the engines mass ahead of the front axle for added understeer potential...
