It was after seeing pics of yours that I got inspired!!

What's a "good all rounder" in your books?

Cheers guys

Well i need something that I can use for everyday stuff like shopping, and taking to work.

If I ever take the 6 to sainsbury/tesco I usually end up waitng outside worrying to much that a trolley has just made a dash for my door.

Also as I work in the airport I have to park in a Staff car park and over the years my cars hae taken a beat in in the car parks.

DIY is a no no for RS6 as well. I can still picture the bag of cement that split inside my astra.

I've had a look at an A6 3.0tdi which I'm still mulling over but I havn't really made up my mind How big, how much or how powerful The next car will be but one thing is for sure is that I will miss the RS6 immensely.

the car probably looks like the very best RS 6 (non plus) I have seen on the market

Have to say I don't share your logic. Mine gets used for EVERYTHING - from carrying family (including daughter to Uni regularly - a full load) to use as a builders van (converting barn in Wales), shopping, car park at station etc. Yes, it's not the tidiest RS6 in the world, but it's fun every day!! As one Welsh kitchen fitter remarked as I took some tools from the back one day "That must be the fastest builder's van in Wales, Boyo!" It sure is!!

OK, I'll probably not get top whack for it if I ever part with it, but actually it's not going to lose much more now, and I'm getting the fun (and the bills!!) every day!
