How about an A5 3.0 TDi?  Stage 1 goes over 300bhp...

No it doesn't...

A 4.2 Audi cheaper to insure then a gti? Really? Why not go ed 30 route and tune that or focus rs route and tune that? 305bhp starting platform if your after big power?

Front wheel drive has its limits.

In a focus rs 420bhp is all good though, not been in any higher bhp cars yet though !

On topic anyhoo personally id go for the s4 the s5 has never really done anything for me id hapily have the v8 with a milly fitted for an awesome noise or the supercharged v6 and tune it, although if i was your age i would be looking at cars that are much more exciting out the box

An s4 or an s5 at 24. It's a hard life aye  :grin:

I'd get a 335d, it's a monster to drive!

Yep agree there, the 335D is certainly a nice bit of kit. Not driven one with a remap but I can bet they're fun.


I'd like to get a 123D but I am trying to resist as i'm saving for a deposit on my first house. :fighting:

123D.... Boring to drive. Engine is as flat as a pancake.

335d.... Now that's what I REALLY want. Only the insurance is astronomical.

I echo other comments on the V8.. Nice sound but that's about it. They also seem to RR at well under their claimed output (probably why they are a lot slower than they claim to be).
Couple of quotes from MRC Tuning regards RS4's that have been in for work/heath checks..

"Health Check Run: 309ps 401nm. Fixed broken solenoids and leak: 362ps 429nm, MRC Stage 2 Remap and Filter: 391ps 460nm"

"Before Clean: 364ps 443nm. Cleaned, ported and MRC Stage2: 428ps 472nm"

"Stock car health check ‎387ps 437nm"

"371ps 412nm. Next: Carbon Clean, Ported Manifold, Precat Removal and Stage 2 MRC Remap."

The list goes on...


If you can stretch the pennies and want a S4/5 then I would head for the V6 SC'd lump..
