"... the alternative verdict is that this is a landmark car for Audi... an extremely rapid, capable ground-coverer with a beautifully built interior and a heap of driveway appeal. It's also surprisingly poised and enjoyable to drive at speed, without the lumpen ride and stodgy feel of previous fast Audis. As such, it's a really rather likeable, even at 50 grand." – Autocar.
The high-performance variant of the Audi A4 range, the RS 4 debuted on the B5 platform in 1999, at which time there was only one body style on offer: the five-door Avant estate. This first model was powered by a twin-turbocharged, 2.7-litre, 30-valve V6, developed in collaboration with Cosworth, which produced a maximum of 375bhp. Being a high-performance Audi, the RS 4 delivered its power to the road via the firm's famous Quattro four-wheel drive transmission.
The B5 lasted in production until 2001, and there would be no RS 4 in the successor B6 range. When the RS 4 re-emerged in 2006 on the B7 platform, the line-up had expanded to three models: four-door saloon; five-door Avant; and two-door cabriolet. Gone was the old turbo V6 engine, replaced with a normally aspirated 4.2-litre V8 producing 414bhp, and as before the only transmission available was a six-speed manual. Top speed of all models was electronically limited to 155.3mph (250km/h).
Currently showing 70,732 miles on the odometer, this RS 4 cabriolet comes with full Audi service history consisting of its stamped service booklet and various bills. Offered with a V5C document.
