Thanks for your patience with videos this year, I have a more coming really soon ♥
Edit required here, Joe x
Life isn't a race Joe. Always worth the wait, No rush.
hey joe wanted to ask for your opinion on the Audi rs7 carbon vorprung hanging gas pedal vs the BMW m5 comp floor mounted gas pedal which would be best in regards to comfort in long distance driving.
It’s never too big… 😏
6 yers on and this thing still looks as good as the day it came out. Audi designs are just spot on!
I bot the original 2012 a7 and still have it. Ages very well
True still looks good but the pbm is that there’s barely been any evolution in design over the past decade…
True, only this interior...
Also low key sleepers only iykyk
They have that touch for sure😊
I love how well it sits. The arch gap is lovely, especially knowing that’s how it came out of the box
Picking up a 72 plate, 10k miles MBB/ Silverstone M5 Comp with B+W, Drivers pro etc on Friday. Excited isn’t the word. Cheers Joe
the bowers and wilkins sounds amazing congrats
Have Fun 😊
Amazing car you will never sell it great choice
great choice that 👌
I would always prefer an A7 over an A6.....this is actually the best looking Audi in my opinion. Get well soon!!
I have an RS7 C8 its running 814bhp 1135nm (runs low 10s and 2.6 to 60) been reliable and gets lot of looks, mine lowered Full carbon add ons and fully loaded might be selling it this year, god knows what to get next though. Had M5 f90 before this. Welcome to try it joe, im aston clinton bucks. My M3 is always in at Russ place up the road.
get a mh600
@@slyleggs4344 bruv what is that
Will you sell privately? I have a C8, Tuned and looking to sell but not many traders willing to touch 🫤
@@slyleggs4344whats that
Omg , my dream xxx are right there , colour, spec everything 🤤
Beautiful isn't it!
What a great car! Glad for folks that can daily one.
Thanks for the vid buddy!
A fully blacked out one of these. *chefs kiss*
The blacked out RS7s look soo good. One of my neighbours has one and it’s one of the most intimidating cars I’ve ever seen in my life!
@@ricodee3188What city?
Satin black 😍

Chav spec.
Usual quality, thank you, Joe. Like you, my preference is for the RS6 but i could live with this! GET WELL!! ❤
Happy new year, good to see you back. I loved your ride along with Misha at the ring. Your excitement and laughing had me grinning the whole time.
Great video as always Joe. Get well soon…. Appreciate taking the time to put this one together
I hope you will feel better soon Joe and thanks for the video.( I like the pictures of new member of your family)
Great video Joe!!! I hope you will get better soon. I'm a big fan of your channel, you're doing a great job!!!
Great video Joe. The production is top class.
Great video as always Joe and wishing you a speedy recovery.
Im always happy when a Joe's video is released. I hope you get better soon and can fully enjoy cars and life again ;)
Great to have you back.
I am surprised you referenced the BMW M3 and M4 and not the M8 (4 doors) which I thought was the direct competitor.
Yea I was thinking the same m8 grand coupe m3 and m4 compete more with rs3 and rs5
Great vid as always Joe !!
What a piece of kit this car is!! Totally bonkers!! And that matte blue paint is fantastic.
A7 is my best Audi I have ever owned, have had two, Shame they weren't a RS7 but diesel and remapped, make me smile from ear to ear every day, keep up the great work. Great to see your numbers increasing all the time.
I pulled up in a local pub car park overlooked by the packed beer garden on a gorgeous evening in my new 2023 RS5 Vorsprung coupe last summer - looking good...then a guy in a brand new one of these parked directly in front of me. Bastard!
Get well and thanks for the review !
Great one, Joe! I wish you fast recovery and hope it's nothing serious. 🙏
Great video Joe, hope you get better soon
Thanks 👍
Thanks Joe. Great video again. Get well soon.
Glad your on the mend Joe, it looks to me like the suspension works much better on this RS7. One thing I really don’t like about the RS6 is the way it squats so far on the rear looks like it’s going to do a wheelie. Honestly I think one of these on 20” wheels with PS4s and steel breaks. Would be amazing.
Love these RS7s
More fantastic content Joe,get well soon fella!
So sorry you’ve not been so well since the start of the year.. miss your content but ge5 it, having not been so well lately.
Great video though fella, as always.
Great video as always, glad you’re feeling better. Still rather have your touring.😊
Me too 😉
I bought 2018RS7 performance in 2020 with 22k miles. Still my dream car. Nothing with 605hpout there compares style and torque! Smile everytime exhaust cackles
Thanks for the video Joe. I hope you betta soon.
Interesting you say that about the reflections. When I had my 2016 Q7, it had that issue with the HUD plastic and found an article on a US forum where they’d got matching plastic and cut it to size to cover the reflective part. I did it and it fixed the problem, but not what you’d expect to have to do for a car that was over £70k back then.
Great video mate. Get well soon!
The best looking thumbnail I’ve see in ‘24 ,thoroughly enjoyed watching,makes a change from the EV narrative sadly been pushed by the majority of motoring channels
The main reason i dont watch the big car channels anymore.
Well done Joe. I've been curious about that model for a long time, so it's great to get your view on it.
BTW it looks miles better covered in crud 😇
Feel better soon 👍🏻💪🏻
Much louder than expected! It has presence, but I'd also go for the RS6...
Feel better soon, Joe!
Raw and fast looking parked and love the color
great video! get well soon big fella!
Thanks, will do!
Looks great when its grubby😂.
Hope you feel better soon joe. Your channel keeps getting better each year
I enjoyed watching the Video Review 😊
Thanks Jamie 👊🏽
Looks perfect❤❤❤
Car looks soooo good.
I recently sold my RS 7, it is a fantastic car. Very very practical, and unbelievably fast...... for me, this is certainly one of the best sleepers around.
What did you move on to?
@fzr1000981 moved country, down graded to a 4x4 pick up...
The 8Y RS3’s fully adjustable and ratcheting upward armrest is an absolute godsend on long trips.
Man that's beautiful including color and wheels.
another top video, Joe... Maan compare to BMW I think Audi has been killing it in the styling department for quite a few generations now, internally as well as external, the way they sound too, I have to get used to seeing BMWs these days before I’m no longer shocked by the way they look, lol, or when you star modding them, they do respond well to modding, maybe that’s BMW’s goal for the enthusiast! 😊
Nice video, thx. I have the RS6 (C8) with the Litchfield stage 1 mod (otherwise standard). I like it, but compared to my last C7 RS6 I think the build quality is nowhere near as good. My C8 dash creaks and rattles - not always, depends on the ambient temp, the road surface etc, and where I "hit" it to make it quiet :) But I found my C7 RS6 build so much more solid - I did over 100,000 miles in it and even after all that driving the dash etc was still solid, not a squeak ! Mark
Nice video Joe! Like you I prefer the RS6 (even though estates aren’t my fave, it still looks mustard)
Awesome !!
Joe always love your videos & I hope you’re feeling 💯again soon. Question: Why is saving un-sprung mass so much better than weight saving in general?
Thanks buddy, I really hope so too! Reducing un-sprung mass (wheels/tyres/brakes/suspension components etc) not only help in terms of overall weight, it also helps with handling, suspension, acceleration and braking. Best way of understanding that more is probably searching on UA-cam. Cheers
Thank you! I wouldn't say it minor that you can't completely relax in shoulders et cetera on longer journeys, major no-go for me, I love the look and sound of the RS6, but that discomfort fact made me choose the M3 Touring even though it's a harder ride.
The rear brake calipers are hilarious 😂😂
Hope you’re doing well, Joe. Whatever it is, wishing you full recovery and the best of health and blessings.
Get well very soon Joe!
I have the c7.5 and your issue about elbow rest could be solved by lifting the trap door over the centre storage unit. If you do it correctly, you can lock it in position much higher and its height is adjustable. Get well soon.
I often drive to Czechia, and always fancied an early diesel with a remap.
I like the style of the pre-fl too 🤓
This thing looks like a beast, but I’d rather have a smaller fast fun car, and a more long range big car.
That blues lovely 😋
This car is an absolute weapon.
You have the option in most markets to choose between the Pirelli, Hankook and Cont SC 7 at no extra cost, so if you prefer the softer Conti(with shorter lifetime) it's just a checkbox.
Love that boot. Rest of the car’s alright too 😀
hey joe wanted to ask for your opinion on the Audi rs7 carbon vorprung hanging gas pedal vs the BMW m5 comp floor mounted gas pedal which would be best in regards to comfort in long distance driving.
Looks great, better than any beemer for sale today.
Easily.
A6 is definitely more practical but just dont see it being better looking than the A7….. the back of the A7 and silhouette are stunning!
What camera do you use for the outside the car shots?
I’m sorry you haven’t been well Joe. Let’s hope you are rudely well soon.
Thank you mate ♥
get well soon joe
Not always a fan of the new breed of cars that have come through in the last year or so , BMW for example with the massive front grills but Audi do seem to have still got it. This RS7 looks absolutely fantastic , it’s pose and poise and the way it sits is just great.
Get well soon, Joe!
I hope you get back up to full strength soon Joe
Awesome machine - Like you i prefer the A6 avant. The rear of the A7 looks a bit strange to me. Wishing you all the best. :)
The rims look 👌🏻ageing well, like rs6 for me
Which phone mount is that? looks neat
Hope you are well soon !!
Love the F90 M4 competition 😂
Yep my brain isn't working well thanks to my condition
Always been curious why UK being such a big RS6 market get shafted on spec. In Australia, a tiny market, I could still order a perf with the tan interior, exclusive paint, ceramics, and an interior pack which crucially adds the alcantara roof, rising tweeter b&o, leather airbag etc. the only thing Audi Australia won’t entertain is exclusive interior sadly
If i can buy one like this ill be happy
Bro, lower your steering wheel a bit, bring your arms down to the rests…ya look like a NASCAR driver..😁
Though I’m familiar with that infotainment from my Q8, and I agree it looks slick, but full touchscreens aren’t optimal while driving. I prefer the button interface my ‘21 RS5 still has. Btw, love that Ascari blue with blue seat inserts, carbon fiber trim and seatbelts (I have the RS5 Ascari Launch Edition, but am lusting over that RS7 Perf!).
Thanks for the informative vid review!
Shout out to the Pixel phone crew. I see you Joe 💯
I flipping love the RS7!
I have just got a new RS5 sportback and got humiliated by an RS7 on my drive home from the dealership 😂😂
I have a dog wagon so don't need the space of an RS6, the 7 for me is the ultimate 5 door
There’s worse things to be humiliated in I guess!
Owned an RS6 C7.5 performance great car was only until I drove an m5 comp did I realise what I was missing. Now looking for an M5 CS
Nice car. Too bad you all don’t get the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing over there. Would be interesting to hear your opinions.
If I'm looking for a sporty daily, would you pick this RS7 Performance over M3 Comp?
No he wouldn't.
Wow.... That absolutely rips Joe😳😳😳😎😎😎🫶 so cool .
I wish the M5 Comp had a air suspension option if you wanted it
I want one 👌
Pleased you are feeling a little better Joe. Would you go RS6, or RSQ8? I only ask ask a couple of dealers locally have not really answered the practicality side by side. 👍👍🇬🇧
RS6 100% because center of gravity is important. Similar practicality, but RSQ8 is even heavier and has a higher center of gravity. RS6 will be more fun to drive, feels like a sedan and not an SUV, and is much more nimble in the corners. If you’ve gone this far for performance and practicality just go all the way and get the one that’s best at both.
The RS Suspension (or DRC) is also hydraulically cross-linked - you can really feel the difference vs traditional coils. Crazy turn-in and body control. I somehow even preferred its handling and steering over the R8...
I wish they made these exact wheels in 21". Love the design and low weight, but just too big. And the 21" wheel option looks no good IMO.
M5 Comp is in a diff league in terms of outright pace and handling on a twisty road. Ive driven both and its night and day compared to Rs7
Specially m5 cs
Cars in North America are being delivered with the Cont Contact 7 tire.
lovely review Joe but I do hope you get better soon. sending love and hugs. side note were you meant to say m5 not m4 competition at 12:35
Thank you on both accounts 👌🏽
Fair play mate. You look a bit gaunt; hope you get better. RS7 beautiful car. For me it's a question of saloon vs wagon. That's it. I'm not sure. Price would dictate, although I suspect would be very similar.
Amazing video Joe your videos have got me in an lot of cars f80 m4 g82 xdrive m4 and sq7 petroleum the two later I have the now but this video you have all wrong the rs7 is so much better than the rs6 full stop sorry
This I'd the ultimate road car for me
Lovely machine. I'd love a C8 RS6 if they come down below 60k at some point
Be interesting to see if that happens later this year...
Perilly P Zero tires are like a brand un to themselves. I think you can get Perilly P zero for your zero turn lawnmower. Not all P Zero tires are the same.
I love this but id have the rs6. A more interesting proposition. especially with the estate body and cheaper
Agreed!
Depreciation will be mega
