Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • PistonHeads: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all, I’m in the market for the latest gen (B9) RS4 for winter duties and kids etc. However I suddenly thought about the panamera turismo (possibly hybrid) instead. My driving is mostly b roads and a roads . Has anyone owned both and could comment about the pros and cons?

My driving is mostly b roads and a roads . Has anyone owned both and could comment about the pros and cons? I've owned a couple of B9 RS4s and driven Panamera's. From a drivers perspective the most noticeable benefits of the Panamera were better suspension on our roads and better brakes. Plus a better looking interior. RS4 is great though, I've got a real soft spot for them. I had the original B9 and then the facelift, for some reason I much preferred the earlier car. They seemed to spoil the ride quality in the facelift, and make the engine even more muted.

I would go RS4 for your use, not least because it's not so wide. Both great cars.

Both great cars. ditto I've been tempted many times by the Panamera ST but (I live in London) the RS4 is just a better size and really feels the (substantial) amount lighter that it is when pushing on a bit I also think they're great value relative to some of their competitors (I'm looking at you M4 touring)
