This is my attempt to gather together all the threads I have related to my car so far and to update it as an ongoing record (when I remember - I forget a lot/am busy/have kids/things happen).
So why an S4? I can't afford an RS4 and I've already had a remapped 2.0 TFSI albeit in B7 guise. I need to lug kids and their kit. I don't think there are many things that tick the boxes the S4 does. I don't mind putting petrol in but really 15mpg is not for me. I don't want a BMW, they are RWD and I don't like the interior. And should I want it there are many tuning options for the S4. I won't be looking at these in warranty but I like the option.
