Introduction
Isaac Wass
When Audi combined an enormous amount of power from a Cosworth-developed Biturbo V6 with their Quattro four-wheel-drive they create this absolute monster.
How do you follow an iconic car like the Audi RS2 Avant, cue the Audi RS4, an express estate which boasts ~376BHP from a Cosworth-developed 2.7-L Bi-turbo V6. A wider track and wheels required wider wheel arches along with other custom bodywork and grilles, this model was one of first deployments of dazzling xenon headlights which helped set the RS4 apart.
This RS4 set the bar for the RS brand, with the ability to combine an enormous amount of power and the immense four-wheel-drive traction, making performance accessible to any driver, no matter the weather. ~6,000 were produced with just ~500 in RHD form like this example.
This car is coming to market with some choice enhancements to compliment the fine condition. With an MRC stage one engine tune that has added ~100BHP to the output, the car has an upgraded clutch fitted along with 20-inch S8 alloys and upgraded 8-pot brake calipers. The car is also fitted with V2 air lift suspension given it further versatility, all of this we think comes together subtly for a unique package.

Love the look of your car! Excuse my ignorance, but what are the benefits of the airlift suspension please? In the video it comes down very quickly but seems to take a long time to pump itself up again.
Would it be any good for towing a race car on a trailer – about 1 tonne?
Hello mate,glad you like the look of the car,its an epic thing man and will be sad to see it go trust me.
The use of airbags above your wheels, rather than springs, also improves the quality of the journey for passengers. Another advantage of air suspension is less wear and tear on the suspension system and vehicle components, due to reduced harshness and vibration, particularly with heavy-duty driving.
The car is a real head turner and if your taking it to races wait amd see the attention it gets especially when you drop it,it does take longer to lift as the compressor fills up but not too long and the control box had a number of different setting it can be lowered too,thanks for looking and good luck
Sorry mate forgot about the trailer,well its Quattro all wheel drive and plenty of bhp so would pull that no bother
Hi, do you have the service book stamped with the listed services?
Cheers
hello mate, sorry for slow response, been away with no internet.
i have a service book i forgot was in the glove box when the photographer came, it has services stamped up to 2009 when it was on 72000 miles, i have had services taken out which will be in photos, and after 2009 there is plenty of paperwork but whoever owned it then maybe forgot to get it stamped.From 2009 to 2020 only around 25000 miles were put on.
The car is perfect mate and engine and everything works
