It seems the wife wants a big input into our next car, so shes decided to google CSL and watch a top gear episode with the CSL being tested.

All was going well till Clarkson mentioned the boot was made of cardboard!!!!

Tell me thats only on a certain number, shes already working out a driving holiday in Italy for next year, and after watching that, she wants an RS4 :bigcry: oh and there's the shopping! :bigcry:

Does she believe everything on telly !!

Best get her out in one and show her the boot floor, which is not made of cardboard ;)

RS4 is nice but a nice shopping car, with no special ness !!

Toured europe in the CSL with the missus and its fine.

Hi mate,

Don't worry, I have stress tested the CSL in shopping capacity with my Mrs :beer:
It doesn't have any issue really, unless you want to transfer lead/gold bars...

Your not wrong there Daz. Looked like McLaren F1 team had taken over the garage at Oulton the other week....................................until I realise Rob was unloading his car.;):hahaha:

Mind you, came in handy when I had to borrow half of it to swop out pads on my car.:whistle:Cheers Rob.:beer::smt083:smt112:smt023

No problem at all Jason,

I have a host of $hite in mine if off to a track day inc trolly jack, toolbox and the odd wheel or two.

They are fine for the odd trip to tesco so tell her not to worry.

Funnily enough that's the first thing people ask me about my car, 'is it true it's got a cardboard boot floor?'!
