Gods motor.
I bet God has trouble insuring it fully comp, as most insurance policies don't cover acts of God.

if i had to have an estate that's the only one around i would have! :)
Brabus TV12 is the ultimate german estate car. 582 hp, 4.9s to 62. Top of
200 mph (limited...)Far more subtle too.
Of course the Volvo V70 is a better car than the Audi, just not nearly as fast.
and in a recent test drive, top gear's resident testers managed to overcook the brakes ot such and extent, the pads caught fire :)
I'd go for the Brabus EV12 personally.
That's so cool. I've eaten a set of pads on my S60 in a rediculously short time, often smoking after a back road blast. Audis aren't that much better, the last one I had free reign in was also smoking wildly from the brakes when I parked it up, that was a TT...
Road car brakes are designed for long life and safe braking - some of my nex paypacket is heading Brembo's way...
had green stuff pads on my MK1 MR2 lasted barely 2000 miles :) and brake fade was really bad! Mk1 MR2 brakes are pretty small and not that good but it is 80's tech ;)
MR2 Turbo's are better but i think better pads could make them feel a lot better plus some fresh brake fluid as well.
Been steered away from greenstuff / redstuff and towards some Ferodo DS pads.
Holy S*it they have twin turbo'd the S4 4.2 litre engine :)
They did it some time ago in the non-plus RS6 :)
Jak-Kay has one as his "runaround"
Awesome cars. The only estate to have ;o)

Nah, get a Mitsubishi Legnum VR4. Better than the RS6 by a mile and a half. OK it's not as fast, but it isn't an Audi which is worth 1,000s of binus points.
