6400 miles in. 10 weeks old.

MPG up to 34.8 average.

It is genuinely filthy though. Goes like f**k now!

I'm still blank amazed by the economy, I know its utterly not the point of the car, but just wow.

Similar state externally to mine, just no point washing them at this time of year!

I know. Go in a 400bhp 4WD car from a few years ago and you'd see low 20's. If I do 70 this will do low 40's!
 
Well I guess it's natural predecessor in many ways is really the B7 S/RS4 in that theyre both small estates of similar weight and power and yes, you'll struggle to get 25 out of one of those in any circumstances. Even disregarding the 400bhp aspect, I doubt youd see 35mpg out of any petrol A4

8 gears wtf!

This is a brilliant car, might even stretch to using the word 'epic' which I hate and cringe at.

Awesome. Dirtier the better. Still hate the wheels. And the silver rear trim.

Weapon.

Apparently jealousy doesn't suit me.

I still maintain the previous gen RS3 is better looking, and i really can't put my finger on why.

Oh s**t what happened?

And LOL at your MPG, I average 25. WTAF.
Lost all power, locked its self into park and refused to start on a by pass.

Call Audi assist, who then called the police, fun fun. They wanted to take it back to Leicester (2 hours away). I said no, so it's currently on my drive waiting for an Audi RS specialist to come out to it.

Ah nice, that's the only prob with these 4wd drive systems, insta-lock on errors! How'd they get it on the truck, would it still roll? Or dragged onto the bed?

Wow thats a complete bummer. Any lights on the dash?

My brothers has had his mag ride fixed by Audi back in Feb and now it's knocking like a complete b**ch over bumps.

I pulled the power to the gearbox, which lets you pull it into neutral so it can be moved.

No lights at all on the dash.

My mag ride knocks, all of them knock, even the RS6 and the new R8. So I just left it.

Yeh I heard some knocking is normal. This sounds like some other issue as its alot more serious. The suspension light came on previously, hence why it originally went in for repair

Proper harsh being left high and dry by a brand new car, but I am laughing at the fact you're always max baller, you have more car finance on your drive than some people's houses and not one of them is roadworthy!
Turns out fuel pump has died. Audi are sending a truck out to collect the RS3.

In the mean time I'm slumming it in this:
