To celebrate 25 years of RS4 Avant, Audi has launched a limited-run anniversary model in testament to motoring icon!
It’s time to throw on your party hats and celebrate as Audi marks a quarter of a century since the iconic B5-generation RS4 Avant first graced our roads. And boy, are they doing it in style! Audi has just unveiled the jaw-dropping Audi RS4 Avant Edition 25 years – a limited-run anniversary edition that pays homage to its predecessor and packs some serious punch.
Exclusive Numbers
Limited to just 50 units in the UK and 250 worldwide, this exclusive ‘bahnstormer is sure to leave Audi fans weak at the knees. The original B5 RS4 Avant made waves back in 1999 with its aggressive chassis setup and stellar performance. The new edition 25 years follows in its footsteps but with even more power under the hood. With a twin-turbocharged 2.9-litre V6 engine producing a heart-racing 464bhp, the new car can sprint from 0-62mph in just 3.7 seconds – that’s 0.4 seconds quicker than the standard RS4. Plus, the top speed increases to an impressive 186mph! That power increase was something Matt was craving when he drove the RS4 Competition recently.
Track Ready
Audi has left no stone unturned in making this anniversary edition unforgettable. Carbon ceramic brakes come as standard, ensuring the edition 25 years stops. And it comes with some serious suspension upgrades, too. Adjustable coilovers give you the power to fine-tune your ride to perfection, lowering it by 10mm over standard, and allowing for an additional 10mm drop if you so desire.
But that’s not all – the new RS4 comes with a quattro sport differential and updated DSG gearbox software that ensures lightning-fast shifts. Pirelli P-Zero Corsa tyres deliver exceptional performance on the road, while a second set of wheels fitted with P Zero Trofeo RS semi-slicks are ideal for tearing up the track and unleashing the RS4’s full potential!
Cabin Fever
Inside, prepare to be wowed by yellow stitching that adds a vibrant touch to the cabin. But what truly sets this edition apart is the attention to detail. Each example is designated its place in the limited 250-model run, reminding lucky owners that they are part of an exclusive club. And if that’s not enough, the digital speedometer and rev-counter can be fully configured to resemble those found in the legendary Audi RS2 – the car that started Audi’s illustrious history with seriously fast estate cars.
Looking Good
We can’t forget to mention the exterior tweaks that make this RS4 Avant edition 25 years a visual stunner. With sleek black trim and roof rails deleted, this car means business and demands attention wherever it goes.
So, whether you’re a dedicated collector or an adrenaline enthusiast craving the ultimate driving experience, the Audi RS4 Avant edition 25 years is an offer you simply can’t refuse. With prices starting at £115,880 – or £119,180 for those craving the famous Imola Yellow – owning one requires a significant financial investment, but with such limited numbers and a legacy that stretches back a quarter of a century, it’s sure to be a good one. Hurry to secure yours before they’re all gone!
