    The roads around Harrold and Sharnbrook aren’t good roads at all with regards to surface quality. Even when the surface is smooth, the subsurface is all undulations so it’s difficult for any car to handle. Hearing those names and seeing the road into Harrold brought back lots of memories both good and bad, but none the less great video sam!

    what did you film some of the cinematic with at the beginning?

  • @RedC220
    @RedC220 6 лет назад +25

    The reason to have an RS4 over an S4 was for the two extra cylinders. Now they are both V6's the S4 is now the pick, will probably perform pretty similar in real life (non track) motoring and will likely be more comfortable.
    The "S" range of Audi's are now running the same power and more than RS cars from not that long ago. The S range is now the sweet spot.

    • @superfly3628
      @superfly3628 6 лет назад +5

      Totally agree, it doesn't feel like an upgrade to go from an S4 to an RS4 anymore.

    • @StUtP9R4
      @StUtP9R4 6 лет назад

      But the S4 is only still S4... I would buy the RS.

    • @komentierer
      @komentierer 6 лет назад +2

      That is not entirely correct, the last gen S4 before the mid-term refresh had the same V8 engine as the RS4 from the same generation... actually most larger S- and RS-Audis share the same engine. Current S6 and RS6: both have the same V8 engine. Last gen S6 and RS6: both had the 5.2l V10.

    • @RedC220
      @RedC220 6 лет назад +1

      It was a shocker, especially with a Manual, which is why it was dropped.
      I have a current S6 Avant which I bought over an RS6 as it's simply a better daily driver and in 99% of the times is just as quick. But I own other cars when I want "sporty".
      I see the RS models as lots of cars rolled up into one, ideal if you can only have one car. But the thing is that lots of attributes rolled up as one creates a lot of comprises. There are too many compromises in the RS4 to make it truly a daily, the ride is simply unacceptably harsh for UK roads, this is where the S models then make more sense.

    Right now I am considering switching back from my 335D xDrive Touring, to an S4 Avant. I had heard the RS4 was substantially better, but I am racing, I am driving around normally and occasionally taking my family on holiday etc. Is the RS4 overkill when 90% of it's life it will be spent

    I just contacted Akrapovic today when they're releasing or whether they're already testing and what performance improvements will it "cause" with new B9 line (RS4/5), as soon as I get the confirmation I'm buying it, just don't know which color to pick yet because the car looks soooooo good even in green (which I hate in general BTW), so as soon as it's confirmed Akra will release I'm getting one, was always fan of dark grey (had B7 in that with matte black wheels) and it was stunning, but on new one the colors are soooo well choosen that it's hard to pick the best one...
    Hope on about 20hp power/25nm torque improvement from Akrapovic exhaust and another 15-20, maybe 25% improvement in ECU/turbo mods, hope to reach 570-600hp on small 2.9L engine, but we'll see, just can't wait

    I'd drive around the world with an urban autos or twisted defender! Beefed up off road suspension, deep tread tires, extended arches and mud flaps. The 110 double cab with pickup bed loaded with the spare wheel and some jerry cans, luggage rack and LED "collapsed sun" on the roof with bull bar / external reinforced bumpers and to complete the spectre lion I'd have pointless rope on the bonnet! Ooh and let's not forget the winch! Dark green with tan finished interior and black wheels.
    That's the car for me, and heck I could be the ultimate crew car to film Sam taking the rs4 on the trip!

      The B7 RS4 only came with a 6 speed Getrag....
      The B8 only came with a s-tronic yes, but that car was only an updated B7 bascally.

    Never really been an estate car lover, but the RS4 would be one that could temp me away from a saloon.

    Sonoma green RS4 James had a while back looked gorgeous. And yeah I like the car better than an RS6.

    Something you forgot to talk about this time is numbers about the engine or performance wise in general. I know, it's not a supercar etc etc, but still... About the car, nice and everything but personally, like the RS6, the Avant version is too long

    The new Panamera Sport Turismo is my choice for a round the world tour

    Around the world trip, the RS4 would be one of the ultimate cars for the job. However, being a Land Rover fan boy, I'd take the Range Rover sport SVR
