Stolen this evening, believed to have happened between 6 and 7pm. They broke into my house and turned lights on to search for keys. We got home at 7pm
Reg: RS04BMX Daytona Grey Avant. Standard (Buckets, FBSW, Carbon Dash trim) apart from Bilstein B16s and some Powerflex bushes
Only proper pic I have...(only had the car 5 weeks

)
Car was located in Hinckley, Leicestershire.
If, by any chance, someone comes across this car or parts that may be from it please let me know, or Leicestershire Police.
Thanks all, Shaun

A guy off here that used to have an RS6 had his A7 stolen in / near Hinckley last week.

Cheers guys
The police officer that came round, whilst very good, had the attitude 'another day, another expensive Audi goes missing' so I don't hold out much hope for good news.
Not sure I'd even want it back if it was found

Spent years planning and working to be in a position to justify owning one (even for a just a year or two) so its a real kick in the balls to have it taken away from me so soon and has spoilt the dream to be honest
Having to have a phone interview on Monday with the insurance company for fraud investigation "due to the nature of the claim and the short time I've owned the car", so that should be fun!
Will keep you posted, for now I get to enjoy driving my girlfriends £300 Ford Ka.....so I guess its not all bad

Sorry to hear this. It is always bad news when the criminals get away with it. I think it just encourages them.
Incidentally where did you leave the keys?

Wasn't on the news, it was on here. Another forum member had this RS6 stolen about a day before this RS4 in neighbouring Nuneaton, then a few weeks later it was picked up by its tracker and led police to a warehouse full of stolen fast Audis in Coventry and some of the scumbags still on the scene too.

Hi all,
Just a quick update on this...
The car was found 10 days after it went missing over Birmingham way on fake plates. I managed to see the car at the recovery yard before the insurance collected it and it wasn't good at all

considering I had cleaned and waxed it just before it went I was shocked at how filthy and mistreated the whole car was inside and out in such a short time... looked like it had been used and abused for months on end
Currently waiting for the insurance to decide whether or not its getting written off, which I believe it will be, as the damage is quite extensive when all the small things are added up together. I do have pics but won't post until I know what is happening with the car.
So it looks like my RS ownership is over as quick as it began
