The trouble with Audis is they are like that Navatron Auto Drive System from the Simpsons when Homer becomes a trucker after Red Barkley dies from heating too much steak. THey don't allow you to actually crash the car. I almost expect the display on the dials on the Audis we own to say 'Sorry Edaward, but I cannot allow you to perform this manouver, the risk is too high' then slow the car down, then stop and finally make me a hot cup of tea to calm me down.

4x4 is amazing isn't it  Excellant for launching too! 
Obviously a Proton Satria GTi handles better though.

A 1.0 12v is the best handling car in the world.

surely grip is from the 4 tyres that feature on most cars 
i think you mean you get more traction

You're right Jimwah. 4WD with crap tyres, especially in the snow is like paddling against the currant.
In the snow on road tyres, you just have 4 wheels to lose control of instead of 2

The fucker puts the brakes on on it's own, it can transfer the power to just one wheel. If you put the brakes on when it's icy and let go of the wheel the car will just go in a stright line

All the recent reports suggest the TT-RS and RS3 are both deffo scrapped so they can concentrate on the R8... doesn't make sense tro make either anyhoo!

Hmmm can you spot the E46 M3 in that picture, all they have done really is added the bottom half of an E90 to the old E46 M3!
Was at the launch of the new 3 series coupe on Sat and the sport was gorgerous, so the M3 will be special!
Well yes obv as its a mock up!

i seem to remember Robbo saying "here's an ARTIST IMPRESSION"
if it looks like that, it'll be fine. anyway, the E46 and E90 coupes both have a similar roof line
