Hi all - great to be new member of the community now that I have an Asphalt... Stunning beast... :D :D

And thanks to the site I've already had some questions answered by trawling the forum (maintaining the demanding matte paint job etc...)

Looking forward to many years of thrilling driving :dance:

Great work and a fantastic choice of RCZ! Out of interest, did you buy it used? I just wonder if you bought a former member's who has just recently sold his. If it is his the mileage will be very low and will have swanky carbon wrapped plastics.

Anyway, I hope you love your RCZ as much as we love ours :D and I hope you'll treat us to a few snaps of your beautiful new motor!! :thumbup:

Good spot smiler!! I'd scoured autotrader a couple if times but had been unable to find it. That's a truly ridiculous asking price!! I don't even know that Starky paid that much for it new!!

£29,995 was the sticker price on the window but didn't pay that, the price they want for it now is a joke but hey it is a lovely well looked after, low mileage with extras car ;)

LOL! Cheers everyone - aye - used car, of course, and it would be indiscreet to talk money a but it was a very good deal for a very low mileage mint car ;)

The wax for it is another matter... :eek:

LOL! Cheers Starky - three coats for less than 5% of a tub is making Swissvax a bit more appealing ;)

The Asphalt was a very well specced contemproary version of the rcz but it was destined to be well discounted because of the original overtly high asking RRP £30,000 all rcz are overly expensive but look cheap compared to a Audi TT BUT the TT will last longer=A 2.0TFSI S Line can be got easily for £30,000 BUT SORRY you will have to pay for a few extra's to get to the rcz SPEC does that matter as optional extra's are just purely for the first owner's pleasure/pain when he trade's it in even other cars in this niche LIKE the Scirroco 2.0tfsi R=265 BHP so in putting all this in perspective the rcz is expensive for what it is. Come 8 years time you wont see many ten year old rcz like you do TT'S or golf vr6 or golf R32

I dont mate :eusa-think: i would have a rcz before the existing audi TT and by all means a discounted asphalt is the way to go. Has anyone paid the list price for Asphalt hope not :thumbdown: but l would give my left pinky to get my hands on a scirroco R OR golf R instead of a rcz Asphalt thats just my PERSONAL CAR CHOICE of course.

I Just dont think rcz is built that well to last the distance with its achilles heal being its engine :thumbdown:

You could go for the highly regarded diesel engine. Built to last and no known reported faults :clap: Runs like a dream, fuel efficient and all the poke that you need (in a car like a RCZ)
