D4 S8 - UK Roadtest review

[Singh]

Did anyone watch the Audi RS3 vs BMW 1M head to head on Fifth Gear yesterday? Exact same story as the Top Gear RS 5 vs M3 test, it looked dreadfull through the corners and the Beemer stunning, both presenters chose the BMW in the end. Audi looked horribly unbalanced lunging for the grass like a big barge. I really don't think it's tyres.

steering comment

I think some of these publications just expect Audis to have naff steering and don't bother editing the lazy road testers basic Audi road test report.....

Bet the RS5 was on Pirelli tyres for the TG test utterly useless in general, but particularly so in the wet.
