......really pee's Jase off
So I cheered myself up;
2001 "Y" reg B5 RS4.
Avus silver, climate, cruise, white electric heated recaro's, Bose, Satnav/TV, carbon trim etc etc.
Full dealer service history, 10 months remaining of extended warranty, tested till June next year, tax out at the end of this month.
Bodywork "perfect", not a single dent or scratch. Wheels are the hard replacements and only one with a slight scuff on rim edge.
Completely 100% standard, never been chipped or messed with. I'm no expert, as I've never had one, but I'd say it's hitting the standard 380bhp.
IT'S A FLIPPIN ANIMAL.
More piccies tomorrow after I've removed the millions of dead bugs from the 4.5 hour drive home.
8D0 813 545 ............... Left Isofix
8D0 813 546 A .................. Right Isofix
8L0 887 233 Fitting Sleeve x 4

Well done Jas, looks stunning!
'm sure it will be a lot more "perfect" when you've worked your magic on it |

Thankie gents.
An 18 month hunt is over. Six cars viewed and many many more looked at in for sale ads.
Not 100% true to my wish list, that being I wanted a Misano red as first colour choice, but Avus was close behind.
Cream leather was a must, as was the Satnav/TV and it had to be standard with good prove-able history.
This ticked all boxes and to top it off the seller was a proper gent.
Car bought in Felixstowe, which is a hell of a drive when you've only had 1 hour 15 minutes sleep after an 11 hour friday late shift.
Well worth it though, grinned like a loon all the way home. |

Well done Jas you must be 'buzzing'.
You'll not regret it.
Get ready for the local yokels saying'what is it,a diesel..an S-line?!?'
No mods...hmm...we'll see how long that lasts!
Congratulations mate,I am well chuffed for you.
Jas. |

very clean looking example, wouldnt have expected anything less. I assume it will be polished within an inch of its life!
Big question, does it get the JAS11N plate? |

Thanks again lads.
Paul, she's off for her first oil/filter change on Saturday morning, plus a good check over. I'll see if I can have a run up after.
Yeah, I'll be keeping her for a few years, in fact keeping the S2, the A6 and the RS4.
Only car I'll consider selling is sooty. She's on loan to Andy at the minute anyway so doesn't really matter yet.
Not sure about the plate. Can't decide
@ Jas, she's got 100k on her. I paid thirteen four
Had her checked over on a bosch diagnostic setup this morning.
No codes and running fine.
The bosch dignostics is a little bit different than vagcom (which I've got) in that it can monitor each cylinder for slight misfires etc at idle or load. Can see EGT's and all four lambda outputs and also took a log of boost pressure at full load.
Ordered an undertray and her's is missing.
Shame you are off away Wednesday mate. Gotta get sorted for a trip up yours when you get back. |

Were you frightened Paul???
RS4 all cleaned..
What with the weather being crap last weekend, coupled with the fact I was still shattered after the mammoth drive there and back to pick her up with virtually no sleep, I've had time today and the weather played ball enough to give her a good detail.
Good job too, it just started spitting on as I was putting her in the garage.
Previous owner had twice machine polished her and did a fabulous job reducing the swirls to zero.
Thought I'd treat her some Zymol Concours. To be honest it's no better than the myriad of other good quality waxes out there, but being flippin expensive it seems to make you think it looks better
Treated the dash and trim to some 303 Aerospace Protectant and the leather with Cliptone Cleaner then Conditioner.
Must say the bodywork and paintwork is in beautiful condition.
New expansion tank on it's way:

That hand print impressed on the dashboard was definately not mine!!
Truly tho, what an absolutely bloody fantastic car and in stunning nick! Makes the S2 feel like a push bike! I kept looking at the back to see where the jet engine was hidden 0 - whoooooaaaayabugga!!! in the blink of an eye!
when I grow up I want one just like it!!

Great pictures. The B5 shape is very attractive. It's all the car you'll ever need.
The 'Wembley stripes' on the boot carpet! Nice touch! |

I know it's not the colour you were looking for, and it doesn't have cream leather - but would this one have been one have made it onto your wishlist? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1526240.htm
Just dreaming by the way - my 2.5 TDi V6 is running sweet just now. |

Hmmm??, nah.
Lovely colour. But no Sat/Nav, no carbon and black leather. I really really didn't want black leather. Way too hot in the summer.
Piano black trim is nice, but carbon is an S/RS thing. RNS-D was a must, cos I'll put an MMI box in and be able to play DVD's etc, also hook up freeview
Sorted reg plate out.
JAS11N is staying on the S2, and this RS4 will have R55 JDA.
Ok, not an RS5, but RSS JDA is what it looks like to me

Nice plate
At least you don't need to cheat by putting a black screwcap in the wrong place like the owner of the Black RS6 at Tonbridge today who was sporting R66 but trying to make it read R56 ...... |
