"..(saloon) is rarer than the wagon, and just a little bit cooler."

the rs from layer cake was for sale last week! Might still be, cant remember where i seen it tho? Might of been on here. And i cant belive the saloon is more rare? I spent ages looking for my rs when i brought her and most the rs's i found was saloons at the time! Maybe they are, not seen one on the road while driving around. Avant all the way tho, saloons are are for puffs.

The Layer Cake one is for sale in the classifieds on here.

I considered a Saloon myself but there were fewer about at the time.

Made the decision to get an Avant and haven't looked back!

Yes Avants are nice to. maybe I'll get one when I go through that stage in my life..LOL

I think Saloons are probably rarer, but just because there was more demand for the Avant when new. Now however it appears that Rare+RS6=COOL :bowdown: :blackrs4:

Oh and black ones are faster!

i have kids but bought the saloon - looks a bit smaller - still not a big enough boot for 2 kids worth of stuff though.

Sorry but i just think the rear of the saloon looks wrong ,, I don't know why . But with the 2 kids the Avant was perfect .. It's even better when you take "Another scalp"
In a estate car ..

I think its the saloon's boot lid that just looks wrong too smooth with nothing to define it.
