Hello all
Well I've bought Orinocos' very nice Misano red C5 Avant and I'm very pleased with it
It is running an ecu map, H&R's and full Miltek so is a lot of fun to drive.
I've also just bought the car reg R66 AWE, which should look good on the car with a carelessly placed screw plug
RS6 AWE
AWE, from the dictionary; Mixture of wonder and dread, a feeling of amazement and respect mixed with fear that is often coupled with a feeling of personal insignificance.
I was just going to have my initials at the end, but I like AWE more
I'm normally pootling around in my Audi A2 so it's nice to get knowing nods of respect from other drivers.
Had a guy in a lambourgini pull along side me on my second day of ownership, wind his window down and ask a few questions about the car and ended the conversation saying how much he liked the RS6's. Cool
Regards,
Martin

Cheers guys
Sorry Tony, hope you get back into something that puts a smile on your face soon
There is another advantage to the car too, my 6 year old neice did say the car would make me more attractive to the ladies - hopefully this effect isn't restricted to 6 year olds though

It's a good plan!
They are very good little cars and with the RS6 you've got a pretty good team. Pull the seats out of the back of the A2 and you've got a useful van. Average out the costs of running the 2 and it's not so bad - sort of.
The tdi is the one to go for of the A2's, great economy and a tourquey little 3 pot engine.

LOL, I second that!
Martins' Misano is quick to say the least, sounds awesome, I WANT V8!!!!
Have to say, the colour has really grown on me after seeing it today, very very nice, and when trying to chase, i mean keep up with it, it looks even better, you can spot it a mile off!
