Been running one now in 2022. Best car I’ve had, and I’ve had the works! Day to day nothing better. And as a family man with a dog and a mountain bike it really is epic.

Thank you Mr Ped for an excellent review. Being an Audi enthusiast and driver I was really looking forward to this video and you did not disappoint. Love these extended reviews, I hope other manufacturers see this and lend you their cars!!

Nice review, Pete! One thing I would say is that you were doing your 0-60 time without launch control so your time was definitely slower than it could have been. You can tell because in launch mode the revs go up to about 3200 rpm and you build more boost before you take off, so it leaves the line much faster, with a little bit of wheelspin from all 4 wheels. You could definitely knock a few tenths off that time. The software in the car will only do launch mode if you are in Dynamic mode (not individual) and also only if you have the traction control in sport mode (not if you turn it completely off). You also need to give it 3 or 4 seconds of full throttle to build boost before you take your foot off the brake (this feels a bit harsh when you do it but the manual says give it 2 to 5 seconds). You can see after 2 seconds of full throttle the revs jump up from 2800rpm to 3200rpm and you can see the boost building if you have the boost gauge turned on in the display. It gets to about 3/4 of full boost before you even start off!

Great video, enjoyed watching!

Hi PP. Great video mate. Really informative too. One thing I did pick up on. At 10:13secs - Speeding!! Tut! Tut! However, it was nice to see the matrix LED lighting working in the fog. I've seen them working in the manufacturers videos, but to see them working in REAL life was nice. One thing I should have asked about the RS4 was this. What's the 0 to 60 like if you do NOT use the launch control. i.e. If you were just sat at a set of lights and wanted to get away quickly.

Greetings from Boston, in the US. Great video/review. I really like your format with objective information and informed person impressions. I currently drive a B8.5 S4 (in saloon, as you'd say, but in similar spec to yours which I LOVE). As a replacement/upgrade I am planning the new RS5 Sportback. Sadly, I don't think we'll get the RS4 Avant in the US, but I imaging the RS5 driving dynamics will be essentially identical. Living in a region that has frequent rain and snow, these uber Audis are the ideal every-day supercars. And they can be spec'ed in discreet configurations and "debadged" in order to "fly under the radar" and avoid unwanted attention. Keep up the great work! I subscribed.

Just Bought a 2019 one and love it already.. I’m lucky enough to have an R8 also and although it’s not the driving experience of an R8 (the noise mainly) it’s a good 80% and as the commentator said, it is a car you would take out just to drive it... My only negative is that the 2019 has the GPF and that Reduces the noise which I think lessers the experience (maybe time for sports cats and a remap!)

Great review Ped. i want one soo bad but will have to wait for a used one in about 3 years , so all you lucky guys who can get one now please look after them for us guys who buy used ones.

Great review, having done just over 1000 in mine I agree with most of it. Pan Roof and 20in wheels are a must. Not convinced about Matrix lights, had 18 months of these on a B9A4 and decided they were not worth the extra. Love the extended colour interior lighting. I did not bother with DRC and haven't missed it. As for sports exhaust. Both standard and sports sound poor after an 8V RS3 so I didn't bother with that either, £1200 saved towards a proper noisy one if I want to one day!. Neighbours reckon it sounds noisy! Comfort and sound is a great option B&O Advance key etc. I think I've fallen in love!
