I would have done the same but the Audi dealer is 4hrs train away at Bury St Edmunds :-(

Surely worth it for the drive back then

still waiting for BCA to pull there finger out and collect my R estate before i can accept delivery of my S4 Saloon

Anyone else having problems with BCA ?

I booked them to inspect and collect my Passat and they couldn't have been easier to deal with.

Still waiting for BCA to call me to inspect the Touareg.... I may call them instead.....

Plus side, just had a phone call to say the S4 will be delivered tmw morning! :-)

Awfully quiet around here...people must be enjoying their S4s way too much

I just topped up my washer fluid for the first time, took me an embarrassingly long time to find the cap.

What a silly place to put it.

Where was it located. I'm sure others will have the same issue soon enough

Have you looked for the dipstick yet ?

Well as you open the bonnet, it’s tucked away in the very left corner (as you look at the car), the way the bonnet lifts up causes it to hide the bright blue cap.

Cool though, out of the way of the engine.

Haven’t needed to find it but presume it doesn’t have one.

How's everyone finding their S4's? I've just ticked over 10,000 miles in only 5 month, oops!

Love the quattro and how it performs in all weathers, makes the traffic light GP so effortless

I enjoy the car but after I had a hire car e class it feels a bit cheap inside. Averaging 30mpg from new, just passed 13000 miles. The Nokian tyres I replaced the continentals with are wearing far better (6000 miles for the contis). I still believe the golf r I had before was a much better drivers car.

6000 miles how did you manage that? I've done 15000 on mine with about 2-3 mm left and I don't exactly hang about.

I live in the highlands of Scotland and perhaps the poor roads up here are semi responsible. Lots of twisty roads. I have always found contis very poor wearing.

Loving every mile so far. 😆

Loving it! Although I’m itching to get the PCW exhaust mod done to make it slightly louder

Golf R is definitely a better drivers car, but it's a no contest on which is the better car overall IMO. Unless you spend all of your time driving decent driving roads at mach 2 then the rest of the time the Audi shines IMO.

And no surprise with respect to an E class, newer model higher in the ladder of product ranges. I sat in new A6 and A7 the other day and thought my S5 was naff in comparison!
