        Cheers

        Not really much to report, Ive simply not had the time or money (and to be honest, lost a bit of interest in messing about with cars in general too) all its had is a boost gauge!
        I have to say, its been nice not having to open the bonnet every other day the only problems Ive had since I bought it are a flat battery due to the fan sticking on, and a blown bulb, so not too bad!

        Just taken these, its about as exciting as things get at the moment! LOL

              I meant woman!

              Differences.... hmmm, the S4 obviously feels alot newer, its alot easier to drive as the clutch is lighter and steering too.
              Alot of people said I wouldnt really like it as the power is delivered alot more smoother than the S2 and other cars Ive had, but I can honestly say I love it, and am more than happy with the power/performance.
              As with most cars, I can imagine the remap makes it awesome!
              I love the fact it doesnt get much attention, so it can be parked pretty much anywhere without too much worry, but the downside is, its not really much to look at lol.
              Overall, I can highly recommend them, especially with the prices as they are at the moment!!

                    I still like the B5 S4 and if I could afford to run one day to day there's be one on the drive. Maybe one day when I'm not doing so many miles I can rationalise down to one car and get one

                      That is literally its only downside!
                      With everyday driving, which for me includes a good blast every now and then, and varied dual carrigeway/A road's and a bit of in town driving, I average around 20-22mpg. So really its not a lot different to an S2!
                      Insurance is about £48 a month, it only went up about 7 quid a month from what I paid for the S2

                        Dest,

                        Appreciate the feedback /update.

                        It's a pain for all of us, with life, commitments and lack of money all getting in the way !


                        Continued enjoyment of the S4

                        Kind regards.

                          I really enjoyed having my S4 and to be honest i wish i had kept it. I had coilovers on it better arbs porsche cayenne brakes and rs4 intercoolers, mrc remap to 345hp and as u say felt newer was nice to drive. I also fitted RS4 recaros to it. However i always missed my old S2 hence me buying it back after toying with a few other cars, just something about the raw power the S2 has compared to the S4 even though the S4 was quicer and more powerful

                              Good to see you still around, I still look at B5 S4's and other V8 Audi's but I dont think I could bring myself to part with the S2, just yet.
