I am looking for a 6 now. Price seems ok but doesn't tie in with being taken in on a PX based upon what the advert says ?

Past.... Only have 500 characters ! RR Sport X 2 Nice but boring RS6 C5 03 Sold due to losing 25K of value in 12 months of ownership !

It looks a cracking deal, dependent upon what the service history actually says, has gearbox been serviced and how often, Cambelt, water pump, and DRC, although if PSS9s then that's good.

Yeah, that is a good price for a known car. Best colour, too.

It's got to be sprint, and that's coming from a Daytona owner... Sprint on the C5 is the one. :bowdown:

Confirmed it when I attended a conference last week, trying to watch a powerpoint by one of the big directors, right next to him on display was a Sepang B8 RS 4 (which is pretty similar to Sprint) with the black grill etc... I couldn't keep my eyes off the damn thing.
