Should my dad’s next car be an Audi S4 Cab? It would be fantastic if you could give this video a thumbs up and subscribe to the channel if you haven’t already, thanks!

What are your thoughts on the S4?
Well, there's no instant love and an engine that big in this era would just be too expensive. I think, just keep looking. People always feel obligated to buy something they tested, but I think when you buy your daily driver, you should be a bit picky.
Have you checked out the CLK's? You should be able to get a 500 convertibles in your price range.
Personally I feel like your old man wasn’t impressed or wowed enough by it…just feel for 7k you can get some nice cars so might be worth waiting for something that you just instantly want to buy after the test drive
Liked your reasoning both had sound points.
Cars I thought doubt need "running in" these days? Running in was required because tooling equipment was rubbish basically but we have come a long way since then. If it needed running in why have the dealers not done so?
Its an EXCELLENT choice!! me and my best mate were looking at getting one of these about a year or so ago for £3500/£4000 at the time and we almost went for it only due to unforseen probelms we couldnt, but that 4.2 v8 is unreal and the interior is pretty decenty for age too 🙂
Fun fact for you…my mate owned this actual car around 15,000 miles, I’d guess 2009 ish. Been in it myself. He was underwhelmed with performance and fuel economy and sold it after a year or so I think….
A CLK 500/E500 cabrio could be cool car? Not that sporty. But very nice cruisers.
That S4 looks the business! Is it normal in the UK that the sales person joins you in the car for the test drive? Really awkward 😀
Had a few of these s4’s… good cars but the 4wd becomes a bit boring but they do sound better with a miltek
I have gone back to the e39 540 which in my opinion sounds better and is a better looking car, although they are both chains the bmw isn’t as scary to fox as the Audi
think your dad needs his own channel
My girlfriend thinks your dad is fit
Slow lazy lump with no tuning potential buy the N54 Bmw.
You two make a great team, very amusing to watch
You should look at/test drive a Jaguar XF or XJ (V8 of course). You wont be disappointed with the sound in those!
your dad looks very young, they look like brothers !!!! ✨
Mate, you dress like your dad haha. Matches the dad cars you own too!
Why not check out lexus convertibles
I had the s4 saloon the speed is there just you don’t realise have it mapped it does give you a massive gain but the response it much better. I averaged 27/28 mpg on a run
Great car if you want a fast daily that sounds good but not if you want fun. I'm a Audi fan but for fun I would pick a 330i over this
These s4 Audi's sound nice but are slow, heavy and thirsty. The 335i n54 is the way better drivers car and plenty of tuning potential on the table once you get bored
The S4 is a fast tourer, not a sportscar. It will bring you fast from A to B in ease and comfort. Maybe a roadster is better as long as you dont need rearseats. Maybe a Boxster, SLK or XK is more suited for your dad.
Quality content, your Dad clearly didn't like that s4 as much as the BMW previously, shame the v8 didn't excite.
Are you wearing the worlds worst Rolex with a rubber strap?
Manual. NO!
I’ve got one. Best car ever. Super fast and easy to drive. Automatic every time I’m afraid.
Leaks oil likes it’s going out of fashion. Still love it though.
If you want a V8 get an SLK AMG 55.
MPG in my is 14mpg around town. Rubbish
Your Dad needs to treat himself to a Ferrari 😉
He should get a E31 for just pure driving pleasure
forget the watered-down S4, go for the RS4 you wont regret it
Your dad is cool Joel!!
if your dad's after a V8 why don't you give an XKR a test drive?
Love a four seat V8 soft top myself. Looked at S4 and S5 and found that changing the timing chain is an engine out job. So I went for a Merc instead. FWIW my view is that Merc are the best at V8s as they've done them since the 60s. For Audi's the 5 pot is the signature power plant, and for BMWs it's the straight six.
Joel buy it for ur pops
Having owned a lot of turbo-charged cars, I've found that when you go to (albeit high powered) normally aspirated car, there is a certain feeling of it being underwhelming. I think it's just do with the way the power deliver is on any turbo vs a NA. My friend changed from a Golf R (300hp, 2.0 Turbo) to a S4 with the same engine as the one you saw here (but not a convertible) and, despite the higher power, it definitely lacked in exhiliration when accelerating, compared to the turbo powered Golf R.
I have one, a b6 s4 v8 cabrio. I'm due to sendnit in soon to get guides changed. I purchased a remap from a company that specialises in these car from USA. The car currently sits around 380bhp. I feel the lack of speed is just the way the speed is delivered. When I'm in my friend's rs or golf r, I feel like I'm going fast due to the torque and way the turbo pulls. Yet in my s4 it doesn't feel fast but yet there's barely any difference when we race. Although you do also have the advantage of quattro. Which you won't regret come winter, or taking a corner hard.
Really enjoying the vids with your Dad
What a nice chap he is
What is your Dad's view on his BMW Z4 3.0 si? I am looking at the S4 and Z4 si.
