It’s amazing that two £50,000 sporting V8 estate cars can be as different as the Audi RS4 Avant and Vauxhall VXR8 Tourer in character. The RS4 is turbocharged, four-wheel drive with a seven-speed dual clutch gearbox and impeccable fit and finish. The Holden HSV Clubsport-based Vauxhall VXR8 is big-hearted, rear-wheel drive, manual and has a comparatively old-school interior. Steve Sutcliffe drove them both flat-out to see if German precision could overcome the tyre-smoking brawn of the 6.2-litre VXR8.

The challenge was achieved successfully; three different specialties of BMX together (dirt, street and park) seemed a nearly impossible combination, but Red Bull Dirt Conquers made it possible with 25 of the best riders in the world showcasing their talents in front of an audience of 15,000 in Parque Metropolitano.
