Bl**dy Audi..... 'Embarrassed'.
« on: 08 July 2014, 01:09:56 »

Trundling around the A46 minding my own business on the way to Hemswell Cliff at a steady 60 - 65 when suddenly there's one of those bl**dy Audi repmobiles stuck up my chuff. 'Aha' thought I, almost onto the dual carriageway, just press that little button on top of the stick, and 'gun it' off of the roundabout. Give that blooming 2ltr diesel a facefull of dust... Wait for it... Wait. O.K. Shove the 'loud pedal'... "ROOOAAAARRRR"...... As I get left sitting red faced with what appears to be half the population of Lincolnshire peering out of their cars at ME. Took a quick look at the back of the Audi, 'HuH'? That doesn't say 2 L diesel... it says.......RS4... Damn...  :-[ :o

Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.

That will teach you. Don't mess with audi's they'll bite you in the backside ;D

Next time instead of the throttle, stamp on the pedal next to it and watch his reaction :y

I could put up with an RS6 if somebody gives me one.

There was a 2008 V10 for sale which had been taken to those nice people at DMS. The price was £26,000 and they claimed it had 690 BHP. :y

If the Audi was in a straight line of stationary traffic the 2.2 might have a half chance(if the crank sensor doesn't give in first) :D :D ;D

We had a customer come in to our shop a few months Back with a rs6. Got talking to him about it as you do. It was a lovely motor until he told me the price to replace the carbon ceramic brakes all round....... £9000 :o not sure wether to believe him or not :-\

Edit to my quote.....£9000 it's true :o :o

Page 45 of this confirms it. I'll never moan about Vauxhall prices again ;D
