Not seen a new S4 yet but seen an S5. They really grew on me. Looked great.

Wow, I've not seen another one out in the wild yet. That said don't see many A4's full stop.

Just been reading some old threads and wondered if any of you new owners got a 1litre oil top-up bag in the boot upon collection? Not sure if this is still a thing these days.
I've noticed that a few of the newer S4's with 19" wheels on the Audi approved used site have contis SC6's wonder if this is just a commercial thing or if they are going away from Hankooks!?
My car has now gone into preparation, not sure which tyre I would prefer...not that I get a choice!
@Brasso just wanted to follow-up on this.
I have spec'd my colour scheme identical to yourself, and left off the pano sunroof. Did yours also not have the sunroof, and if so, how have you found it. I figured given our weather in the UK that the sunroof was not essential, especially with a lighter interior
Well having tried an A4 Avant 3.0 272 for the weekend, I was back in the dealers today dropping it off.
Sat down with the sales guy and ran some numbers, I was expecting massive negative equity in my S3 after only 15 months, but I was pretty close to break even (I had paid for all the options in cash, to keep the monthly pop artificially low) so speced up a 252 petrol, as I wasn't keen on a diesel and like the petrol S3.
Numbers didn't quite work but were pretty close, so the sales guy who is their performance specialist asked if I'd thought about the S4.
I had speced one up so he stuck that in the computer and with a bit of jiggery pokery got to a figure I was happy to pay that was only about £50/month more than the A4, although I suspect i could have squeezed some more out of them on the A4 if I'd pushed harder.
This discount and deal contribution was about 9% overall and the better residuals on the S4 seemed help but I didn't bring the A4 quote home so can't exactly compare.
Needing more space for a dog and a baby and given the fact I hadn't really gelled with my S3 it quickly became a heart over head decision and the paperwork was signed and a new S4 Avant is on the way.
Dealer told me a build week of 44 or 46, which I believe is end November/ Early December but perhaps someone on hear can tell me. I wasn't in too much of a rush for it and would be happy to wait until January

Thanks, I've done a CarWOW form this evening.
Always end up clicking far too many options and pushing that price up!
