‘Run Of The Mill’, But Curious For Some Reason

[Bonefish Blues]

Audi's aren't my kind of car
This particular one was far too ostentatious & certainly not a 'sleeper', like the earliest RS4 (& definitely not like this awesome Superb, but I followed a '21' plated RS6 estate out of Wakefield yesterday

I'm not sure what engine they have, whether a V8, or that V10(?), but it certainly sounded good!!

An 8. V10s were only produced between 2008 & 2010.

V8T ....

Thanks guys, it must have been a combination of exhaust silencing & other traffic, it didn't sound like the (Audi) V8's that I've heard before)

The turbo muffles the rumble ime.

Curious, due to the smoke
I've just nipped/driven back into Castleford, & followed an Audi A4 estate back, all the way past 'DiggerLand', Voysey Row, to jct 31/M62
To say it was emitting black smoke, was an understatement, it was as the Yanks call it 'Rollin Coal'

The van immediately behind it had headlights on, whether that was a sort of unsubtle indicator to the driver of the Audi??

The rear of the estate was grimey, with brake-lights barely visible, & the registration plate not readable, & as for the drivers view via the interior mirror...............

I just hope that there was Traffic Police on that stretch of the M62, & it was stopped, as the possible amount of smoke kicked out at higher speeds would certainly be a danger to other traffic
Prohibition/seizure might make the driver fix the issues

Cock-Womble!!!

If a truck was emitting that much smoke, it’d probably be prohibited from further travel by VOSA?

The idiot will have adjusted the fuel pump to make it go faster

Probably, & to waste diesel coating the back of his car in soot

Portsmouth, 26.8.84, somewhere near the dockyard, I think.

I seem to recall that something very very similar was used on a van (Transit, or CF?)
