Hi,

New to this forum due to my looking to poss buying an RS2.

What should I be looking for? Are they prone to any kind of known failures/ weakpoints? Also, any good indipendents in the North West area for servicing? I currently only do about 6-8k miles a year, but would be looking to use as a daily driver, will I have any probs?

Cheers gents

Paul

Check out the Evo buying guide in issue 043 and visit www.rs246.com for lots of advice.

You shouldn't have any problems running it as a daily driver (I do ), but expect to be on first name terms with your local filling station attendant.

Parts are easy to source (either from Audi, Porsche or the independant German car spares suppliers) and there is still a good body of knowledge on their servicing and upkeep (none that I know of in the North West though).

Other than that, go for it! thumbup

Also speak to Jon Pick on 01483 856045 or 07870 617866

He buys and sells only the very best ones - I've been looking at buying an Audi Blue low miles mint one he has for sale on this site!

He is a mine of knowledge about them , and would give you some advice!
