Audi RS4 Avant video review - www.autocar.co.uk

The new Audi RS4 has a lot to live up to; its predecessor is still vaunted as one of the best RS cars ever. Can the new 4.2-litre V8, four-wheel drive RS4 Avant impress?

"the ride" .. mate you're driving an RS model car.. of course its going to be stiffer... so get the S4 if you want plush suspension

Andrew is a top bloke...knew him back in the 80s

Sir, I stand corrected on your abilities as a reviewer
That was a full, straight shooting review. crammed into 4min
P.s. I'm no 0000 or Merc fan

A gorgeous-looking AWD V8 estate that goes sideways? I just jizzed in my pants.

[fretbored]

saw the phantom black version of this! gnarly!

Please explain why you would prefer a manual transmission over a manual transmission with perfect automated double clutching.

[ArtemiyPavlov]

Yes, I would go for an AMG V8 above everything :-) It's so ridiculously cool and fun. And time has proven to me that you don't need AWD if you have proper tires and not drive above the speed limit.

I went for the S4 Avant Black Edition - RS4 sounds better - but the S4 for me was a better package.

Sexy car and I love that it has a big V8. I like this guy, he is brutally honest.

[gmeplayonly]

Yeah but i mean if you want something in the Price Range from an M3 or RS4 and you need space for family or something u can only choose the rs4 avant. it would be great to see an M3 Touring someday!

I love this Audi, awesome looking and sounding car!!! Great footage!

Uno de los autos mas cautivadores del mundo, sin tener tanto caracter como una Ferrari, Audi supo saber que hacer con las siglas RS. Hoy el mundo lo agradece

[GavLTron]

i am thinking because it had a none Quattro AWD a helix some thing system. and it was just an 50/50 split under steering little bugga but thats just what i have herd.

[aaaviation]

interesting conclusion he made there of preferring the C63 AMG with its better sense of occasion

[tres]

does it got that 50 thou miles and 4 year warranty?

[mlej]

Do it man! and enjoy every minute of it

I don't mind Autocar's reviews, but there seems to be a fascination with talking quickly and cutting camera shots early to get the videos under 5 minutes. This is YouTube, not a 30-minute TV show which has to cram in as much as it can. Make the videos 20 minutes long, feel free to go off on a tangent or work in a long backstory, and bring in some rivals to compare it to. We're at a point now where some guy driving round for 4 minutes reeling off a bullet point list isn't good enough.

This was a good review.
Lovely car.

Wish they sold this in North America. Driving this through the Rocky Mountains would be incredible.

could be where they launched the RS4 to the media
