Pics of your Fast Estate...
Discussion
Lot of love for German wagons in here, and some of the crazy bhp figures being quoted have made me realise mine isn't as fast I initially thought 
Here's my Saab 9-3 Aero, V6 2.8T remapped to 300bhp. There's further gains to be had by replacing the stock Low Pressure Turbo with a High Pressure one (and related gubbins), but in a FWD car there doesn't seem much point having 400bhp+ when you can't put the power down.
Perhaps I'm biased, but in Aero form I think it's one of the best looking estates ever made (also prefer it to the facelift 9-3
)

I am getting one of these in a month as the family wheels..How has it been? I will get a stage 1 to 330bhp as well...can't wait!
I purchased it around 4 years ago from Torque GT and still can't think of anything I could replace it with. We needed a fast car which could transport people, dogs and luggage easily with ground clearance for mountaineering and this is perfect.
Recently mapped to stage 1 and now it's even better with a few pops
You won't regret your purchase
Edit to add she's been faultless, nothing has broken and she's wanted for nothing bar a set of tyres, brakes all round and a full annual service.

Didn’t you blow yours up? Very interested to know the limit of the 2.8 xwd. I’m taking my next one here (07 pre facelift wagon) same as you I prefer the older shape!

Never ran right at stage 5, I’m not the only one either, a few jzw cars went pop. I’ll be taking it to one place for everything next time.

Check the second post on the first page
Why didn’t Audi make a B6 RS4 ? Yet C5/6/7 RS6 exist. These days they seem to have geared up and also produce in other plants so multiple new RS models are available on the market simultaneously. The name of the subsidiary has also changed, now being known as Audi Sport GmbH

Christ. I wanted one of those so badly but couldn't afford it. Have you had it since new? Big delays due to the WLTP emission homologation, was available beginning of February but decided to postpone until 1st March to put on a 19 plate
