Hi,
Im brand spanking new to the forum and im after some information on a possible purchase.
Im looking at an RS4 cab (07) with 52k for £16995.
I am currently in a stg2 Mk5 Golf gti running about 270bhp. If im honest the RS didnt feel that much quicker if at all. So 1st question
- where is the power band in an RS? It didnt seem to have much go until about 5k.
- how much is servicing for lets say from 50k onwards?
- what price are we looking at for wear and tear parts such as :-
- clutch
- discs and pads
-Does it have a cambelt or chain?
-Is this DRC suspension as prone to failure as the internet would suggests?
- Is there anything else that i should know or be looking out for.
Sorry for all the questions but this is a big and potentially expensive purchase for me. Need to make sure that i am armed with as much knowledge as i can get.
Thanks in advance
James
