HAHAHAHAHA LOLOLOLOLOL - Thats a typo, surely he meant £4995 :D

It was originally put up at £18k and dropped to £12k within 2 months where it sat for another few months before selling (didn't see what it went for) so this joker has no chance of selling at that price :D

Plus the car is now pretty much only good for track with that "rare" cage wrecking the interior for any kind of daily use, and look at the bodged nitrous bottle install too. Lets be honest, the people who did the gutting out to fit a cage knew it was only for a TV show so they didn't care what damage was done to rest of the car and it shows in the way the interior looks. Just look at the Nitrous switches which haven't even been installed properly etc. My guess is that the garage that did the work was told the car would be scrapped afterwards as they wouldn't have left a real customers car look like that, would they?

Agree with the above. That's simply a ridiculous amount of money for a butchered '6. Think it was originally listed a while back for £7-8k or similar.

If I was in the market for another RS Audi then my £24 big ones would be going on a C6 RS6, a mint B7 RS4 or a C5 RS6+ with change...

I'd rather buy the Volvo Luther drives that has some provenance at least

One tv show , hacked up plus nitrous and built in climbing frame , just get someone from towie to sit in it , be worth millions then

Wasnt this car on the forum before it became a nightmare
