Still got it

I know the colour is not as interesting as Sid's and she is not as pristine as Amar's (yet) but just been out for a spin and really do not think there is a 7+ year old car out there that wears its age so well or still carries the same presence as a C5 RS.......

Crappy iphone pic but still spot on in my opinion

Couldn't agree more. These cars still get my heart pumping when I see them.

One of my colleagues has a car half the age of my '6 and always comments how smart it looks.

Spent 6 hours cleaning mine on sat but bloody camera batts were flat :bash:
They look very mean and i think cuddly, only saying that cause where ever i park it some stunt has to park right next to it in an empty carpark

So true, think anyone can spot an rs6 in a car park but no one on the forum can spot me when I am driving.. Been checking the spotters forum for the past year and still no one has seen me!! I am always on the m20/m26/m25/m3 so was sure someone must have seen me - perhaps I drive a little too quickly! Think I may start posting my work diary on here so people can keep an eye out!

How often you in Kent Ringo?

Usually once every other month, my parents live there.

I'm always in 2 minds whether to park in 2 spaces and risk someone keying it, or leave it in a single space and hope no one dings the door. What usually happens is that I just take a different car instead if there are likely to be carparks involved :(

My wife's cousin freely admitted to me that she cheerfully opens her doors onto the cars parked next to her. I could have throttled her.

My mrs cant understand why I've got it ad she says "you never use it" which is true never really let kids in it unless I really have to and certainly never tale it when we go shopping, just use hers instead :wink:
