Very nice indeed. Still may be an option for my next car. Has it been mapped?

Thanks, not remapped yet. The revised S4 have a new ECU so waiting for MRC to crack it. The pre-face lift ones easily map to 470 bhp at stage 1. Whoopeee :-[

With a growing family I'm now considering trading the S3 in for an S4 Avant.  Whats the real world mpg - not hooning it, not driving like a granny either? high twenties realistic?

I normally average at 27 mpg, that's a mixture of motorway and in town driving. On the occasions I have resisted pressing the pedal I can get 39 mpg but that's cruising at a mind numbing 65 mph.

The facelifted S4 has stop start tech and all the usual petrol saving wizardry. These fuel consumption  figures are for a S-tronic gearbox.  Apparently, the manuals are little more thirsty and more expensive on road tax becoz of CO emissions.

Thanks, thats bloody good - I've never seen more than ~36 mpg in the S3 even taking it easy.  Doesn't sound like its substantially thirstier than the S3 for day to day driving which is incredible for what it is.
