Somehow i find the Audi a better buy out of these two even though the VXR8 is a little cheaper..

VXR8 for me in saloon and auto of course. What they forgot to mention is that in the UK the audi will look just like any other repmobile audi.
The VXR8 will be quite a rare car. And the noise is superb  :y

The rs4 has ;D got break all interior space, the VXR8 being A6 sized has loads of room inside along with a proper boot :y

The audi will obviously be quicker off the line, especially with 4wd and less weight/more power, but VXR8 auto is quicker off the line than the manual one, so not a direct comparison imho :-\ You know which one will be more reliable as well ::) VWs dsg box struggles with a third of that power after a few miles, I wouldn't park next to a second hand one in case it fell apart all over my car ;D

£55k Golf in drag or a proper car :-\ still working on a plan to get one on my drive... ::)

The VXR8 is a mere Vauxhall. At sub £30,000 it makes sense. At £50,000 it doesn't. :-\

The VXR8 estate, looks lovely  :-*. I like the Audi a lot though, and even as 'Cocks cars' they feel very high quality.

Its impressive the cocks car makes more power with a third less capacity. But didn't they pinch that motor from Lamborghini?



Bah. I've already got one ring in my life thankyou. I don't need another 4!

New ugly bumpers or not. Vxr8 for me, all day long.
