I click on the video without looking at views, and half way through, i realised how small this channel is, but how good the video was made. All the luck to you lads, insane quality for such a small channel 👍
Great Video, i was really surprised your chanel is this small. I really hope that you guys will get the Attention you deserve in the future. Keep the good work up.
Hey guys great start to the channel! Can't wait to see which car you'll film next. Just a couple of back seat driver pieces of feedback. Chuck in a few more B rolls - shots of the exterior walking around the car and shots of the car driving. Just to break up the conversations in the car. Modern day media means us as consumers have limited attention spans so good to add in some stuff to wake us up and keep us excited. Otherwise, production quality is good and cool to see people speak about cars in such a passionate and interested way. Good luck for the future and you gained a subscriber 🇳🇿
Mate, thanks so much for the feedback! And we 100% agree, we're in DIRE need of more B roll. Even if it's just of a rubbish bin. Thanks for taking the time to comment, much appreciated 👍
We couldn't believe that the revs kept climbing - it sounded like it was going to blow up but in the best possible way. Thanks so much for the kind comment, mate!
Re: Airbags off.. its so you can put a babyseat or child in the front seat and it won't kill them basically. Audi always usually put isofix points in the passenger seat. The are definitely in the B8/B8.5
@kiwiGTshow There's both rs6 & rs7 performance packs at Chch European. And same at Sunday Drive in Auckland, surely they'd let you use them for a free plug?
Yeah, I think the C8 RS6 had a lot to do with the recent hype around wagons (especially in North America). But to be fair they've been popular in UK, Australia, and New Zealand for decades.
A stage 2+ b8 s4 has more power (460awhp) and still has no lag with the supercharger and comes alot cheaper, it's down side is it will never sound as good as the v8 and dosent rev as high
@kiwiGTshow yup that was just a flash tune, I'm stage 2+ with wmi ontop and sit around 550-570hp. I'd love a manual b7 rs4 for purity and people do turbo them upwards of 1000hp just 35k for the kit
That's awesome, what did you buy after the RS4? They're definitely thirsty beasts. We used 1/4 of a tank filming this review with just a few pulls and about 20m of driving around talking smack.
@@BenThomas089 this example has done 90,000kms and it felt tight. The DSG shifted well and the interior had no rattles and generally held up well. It's hard to say if the engine was in top condition given these suffer from carbon build up but it seemed strong all the way through the rev range 👍
Honestly... I've had 10 Euros over the past 5 years or so and besides normal maintenance, the only thing that's broken was a sensor that cost a couple hundred bucks. Key is to make sure you're buying a car that's been properly maintained, and keep that up. I'm not saying they're a Toyota, but I do feel as though they get flogged on when they're not as bad as some people make them out to be. Maybe I'll go backrupt tomorrow 😅
This is the biggest myth along with ‘Euros are more expensive to own’. Both really wind me up. ANY car can be unreliable. The key is looking after it, and servicing it on the correct service schedules. If you do that (with any car) you will go well. Too many people disregard service intervals, don’t service things like transmissions, so yea no kidding it will run into issues.

The stock redline/limiter on those rs4’s sounds AMAZING.
Cracking production quality & great video lads, keep it up 👍

Lovely cars. Hearing SAFFA accent there too. Anyway loved the review.
@@marlonbaird6070 cheers for the kind words mate! One of us is from South Africa originally so that makes sense 😁
Next Audi to review, Rs6 or Rs7 C7.
I rexkon these are just a step above this Rs4 imo.
@@TheDarkhorse82 would love to. Know anybody in New Zealand willing to lend us one for the day? 🤩

@@TheDarkhorse82 haven't tried asking dealers yet, but might give them a go - thanks mate
@kiwiGTshow yeah, definitely worth a shot, free advertising for them, Sunday Drive always have decent stock on hand too.
Wagons are so hot right now....that many manufacturers have discontinued (their fault)

@@craigauty6756 yeah we remember that video from Chris Harris comparing a tuned S4 to a stock RS4 and it won - it might have even been stage 1?!

@@craigauty6756 yeah the owner of this B8.5 RS4 also wanted a manual B7 - they're so expensive though!
Used to own a B8.5 V8 RS4 just like this... That 8,250 redline didnt grow old. I was paying frequent visits to the gas station though! 😅

How did this one feel with regards to its ks? Still fresh to drive?

100% on the philosophical ideology of ICE over EV
Euro cars are beautiful but they are all unreliable. Yes there is going to be people that have been lucky but most are not.
