B5 S4 Avant

[Palmers]

Picked this up the other day.

Spec is:

HR Coilovers
Porsche front brake conversion
Stainless exhaust with a decat
MTM remap
Rotiform 19's. Not of a fan of the 'scene' or 'dub' wheels whatever you call it but brand new tyres all round so they can stay!

Drove to Somerset to get it so it was a 400 ish mile round trip. Car performed faultlessly, until the engine light came on 50 miles from home. After reading the paperwork when it was mapped it said 'drained tank and filled with V Power'' so im guessing its because i put cheap fuel in! Hasnt come back on since.

A few snaps

Very nice! Im after an S4 Avant shortly too. I was looking at the B6 (ideally in yellow bit they are like rocking horse st) but i only want to spend around 5k ish so id be at the bottom end of the B6 market. The B5 is grownig on me alot Yours looks amazing!

Lovely cars these, but as above... I'd be wary of the ditchfinders. I really hope for your sake that there are no other corners cut with maintenance!

[Basil Hume]

Better tyres will make a huge difference.

Looks lovely.

[BetterCallSaul]

Why do people fit such st tyres to cars like this?!

Looks great otherwise - think the wheels suit it too.

[iacabu]

I want this.

I like Rotiform wheels too, they suit it well

Double post >.<

Cheers guys!

I did wonder about the tyres, but they are new so they can stay until I decide what wheels i want.

Car looks great and the spec is awesome. Not sure why someone would spend all that money not to mention mapping on 99 ron to then fit the most budget nylon tyres for sale though?

I would sell the wheels and get some standard s4 items with oem (or better) rubber

Same person that thinks the wheels need changing

In all fairness the wheels look ok they do suit it, but i will still get something more OEM at a later date.

They look like RUF replica wheels, so suit the porsche brake IMO

[Palmers]

Woops! Just changed it so it should work now. Its done a phone so please put headphones in to get the actual sound, its the t!ts!!

[Pyrolysis]

That sounds epic! I streamed it to my livingroom surround sound lol! I must admit i have a bit of an exhaust fetish!!!

Some snowflakes would look goo, but they are soft and generally more acknowledged by the DUB crowd than those. I'd leave those, albeit with different tyres.

[Pyrolysis]

I think those wheels look horrific and nobody in their right mind would want to buy them from you. I will do you a favour and buy them off you for a veeeeerry reasonable price

[Fitzygti]

Lots of want happening here!! sounds great too. and in that colour its got a lot of RS2 about it but with the huge cost!

love it

[L91 EON]

Looks amazing. Sounds way better than my b5 with ko4 upgrade!
