I like the 'sleeper' diesel exhaust conversion... reminds me of the copper coloured B5 I saw a few years back. I didn't know until then that they made a 1.8 (non-turbo) B5 RS4 saloon... I was proved wrong though. It even had the optional star design hub-caps. Not as nice an example as the one above though, obviously.

Given the wrong badge position, the B6 rear lights and the "diesel" exhausts it's one of the better done 3.0TDi(?) quattro made to look like an RS4 conversions - and I really don't like ANY car pretending to be something that it isn't however well executed the work.

There was even some plonker on eBay a while back trying to pass off a converted B6 V6 twin-turbo petrol as a "genuine" Audi B6 RS4 prototype - that's the sort of person who gives well done conversions a bad name IMHO.

Wait... what? "Better done"? It's just a diesel B6 with an RS badge slapped on the back. Was the sarcasm not simply assumed for this entire thread?

I think it may have been done in an attempt to pick up some fanny.
Clearly it didn't work and now is regularly seen in the less heterosexual area's of central Manchester..
