Not that i've heard - touch wood!!!
Did 250 miles today, very mixed driving but was trying to be efficient and only did about 5 foot down overtakes and didn't go over 70 on the motorway.
All in all 31.6 mpg
Not too bad.
Steve
Avg about 27mpg normally with 30mpg if im not pushing it.
I'm doing some big miles tomorrow, prob 200 plus and would expect 30+
Stephen
So happy you got sorted. I'm heading to 4,000 miles in mine and love every minute of it.
Pity it's so dirty and I can't be bothered cleaning it as it will be dirty again tomorrow!
Steve
Out at Aldens tonight so wasn't there.
Do it!! Sounds nice.
Steve
Sorry s3dbw my comments weren't directed at your comments but the initial post from Brakedust.
I was confirming what you said ;-)
Steve
LOL - how can you comment on the fuel economy after a test drive??
I've done 3400 miles now and economy for the performance is better than any other petrol car I've ever driven.
With loads of...
I work in a city too and spend a far bit of the commute stuck in traffic and the rest on motorways or twist b roads and so I get a good mix.
I doubt it will be a gear-box issue (at least I hope...
Nightmare, gutted for you. I've done 3000 miles now and touch wood but everything seems great (well apart from a dodgy horn lol)
Steve
Might sound like a strange question but my horn doesn't sound great. I'm pretty sure it should have a low and high tone but it sounds like just one is operating.
Had my car in audi today but they...
You'll love it :-)
LOL can't say I've ever seem my car from an angle that I've noticed it.
Steve
Anyone in the UK thinking about this yet?
Who would you go with?

@The RS6 - it's not that easy to take a video safely but there are loads already up on youtube -

Super times :-)
I knew the car was quicker than the auto express drag race with the 1m - qtr mile 13.6 and max speed 103mph.
At 12.3 it destroys the 1m :-)
Steve
Have you recorded a 1/4 mile with your vbox with launch control?
I'd be very interested in the time and top speed.
Stephen
Good write up.
Still loving my RS3 :-)
The brakes are amazing aren't they!!
Steve
Saw a black 1M on the road today. No thanks!! Just looks wrong in every way, there was a M3 2 cars in front and it was so much nicer looking.
Sounded nice tho.
Didn't get a chance to play as it...
It's in the manual.
Take off traction control, put gearbox in S. Left foot on brake then put your right foot on the gas all the way to the floor (keeping your left foot on brake).
The revs will...
It's a super car isn't it. I have got 32.8 mpg on long trips and my last full tank avg was 27.0 with some mixed driving.
You probably didn't test launch control yet so I'll let you experience that...
One word - FAST!!
Love it :revs:
Steve
Replaced today and got a massive 10% discount. Ah well car back to perfect :-)
Steve
Hit a seagull in the early hours of Sunday morning.
It hit my mirror (passenger side) and the forced smashed the glass.
Looked around for replacement before calling my dealer but found nothing....
Nice cars guys. You'll love them!!!
Finding excuses for trips!!!
