Wanted: C5 RS6

Nope, don't understand at all and think you are mental for selling before you get to spend some time with it!!!!!! I was forced to sell a car to help my ex (were together for 10 years) out with money problems. Regretted it from the moment I put the ad up and showed her the door less than a month after I sold the car. Current other half is far more understanding and knows exactly what happened the last time I was forced to do anything with my cars .

Your sympathy is much appreciated!

Do you, by any chance, think you've stumbled into a different forum? You do know where you are, right? A sign of weakness is "blood in the water" for the sharks.

I feel your pain but you can easily tell Herr Führer that to sell it once all problems are sorted is a false economy, in fact, it's downright retarded. Keep it at least 3 months.

[Mr Footlong]

That coming from a man that makes me seem like a budget Audi modder!

You have been told sir.

[RS6JJL]

don't blame you at all for getting rid they are a money pit

mine was the same every month going in for something then noticing something else needed doing my car went in every month for a year and half just had enough in the end

here she is i part exchanged her for a vxr in the end, as moving out from home and wanted something fun again

i spy'd her on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-RS6-RS6- ... 4ac76133bd

Depends on if you get a good one or a lemon as far as I am concerned and also, anyone going in the "supercar with a boot" market and not being prepared to lose their ass in repairs, possibly didn't do enough research and really weigh up the what ifs enough. Please don't think I am having a go, simply my opinion on it is all.

A year and a half of falling apart is a lot to take though, RS6MTM is just being a wuss though.

indeed, and i <beep> dont care about all those people disappear from the forum (except the ones who are forced to sell...), i love driving mine...
the ones who did their research are still on this forum for years and prob spend $$$$$$$$$ to get it in good condition..

Being a wuss? I simply dont have the money to throw at the car. We cant afford it at the minute and the decision to sell is as much mine as it is hers. Since buying the car in April I have so far spent £5,500 on repairs and I have driven it for ONE day. A total of 80 miles. In what world does that make sense? Certainly not mine

I understand your reluctance to throw good money after bad at a car however I'm a little bemused why you wouldn't keep it after spending £5.5k on repairs as you have spent the money for the next owners enjoyment.

To me it's almost like buying a new car on a balloon loan and then handing it back on month 1 knowing you still have to make the payments!

I hope your not been pressured too much as it will only cause resentment. Everyday I drive mine my attachment gets deeper!

[chunky79]

+100 to everything said above. Makes no financial sense at all. Good luck with the sale and hope the new owner comes on here and doesn't have any faults for a year.
Just a quick question though - Did you buy the RS6 cause you have always wanted one, OR did you buy it like some that have been and gone cause it's an RS6??

[magpie21]

Thanks all for the replies (although it does seem to have gone off on a tangent ) and offers of cars for sale, nothing has ticked the box just yet though

How about cognac interior? Nick Johnson has a black one for sale but stupidly overpriced, might be worth a punt at £15k!

Yeah I really like the Plus after having one previously but with out coilovers this one just seems a bit rich, even if I was to haggle to 15k there is still a big bill looming in the future!

Hi mate. Could have what you're looking for if you don't mind a little project.

Looking to sell my '53 RS6. Black, black leather, black roof lining. Black everything infact. 85k miles.

One slight issue, it's leaking steering fluid badly! Other than that perfect. Had the gearbox rebuilt, and brand new intercoolers less than a year ago and the DRC replaced by Audi a couple years ago. It's stage1 remap to 520bhp. With milltek system.
Selling as I can't afford to keep her anymore. (Change of job)

I'd be looking for around £9000 before the steering fluid leak, but I know this can be a big job. So offers around £7000

Let me know if interested.
Steve

Again thanks alot, but really just want something I can get in and drive for a while, I'm sure this will make a great bargain for somebody though.

If anyone else is considering selling up let me know, again really after an avant in a dark colour, daytona, mugello or basalt black, and really want the black optics pack (it just sets the car off for me)

Buying a car driving it for ONE day and then spending £5,500 on it just to sell it straight away without enjoying it. In what world does that make sense? Certainly not ours...

Welcome to a world of opinion, we call it the Internet.

Magpie, I'm thinking of selling mine. Usual love/hate story: love it since last few years on few occasions it sees light of day, hate having my pocket emptied. As you see it had most major stuff done recently.
