There's a thread about it on TSN.

Two letters - one offering a 24 hour test drive, the other just a test drive. I haven't had either of them.

Neither have I, however I haven't bought my last 3 Audi's from my local dealers so their sales teams probably don't like me anyway! :lol:

I have received one of these letters and can confirm it is a test drive for 24 hours in an RS6 avant subject to availability and participating retailers descretion.
I've just spoken to Derby Audi and they have got one but you must supply your own insurance (They want to see proof). More than insurance will charge me £25 for this (£15 admin plus £10 premium), of course Derby audi did offer me the usual accompanied test drive for free. (At no point in the conversation did they ask me for proof of the original letter).

I got a letter as well.

I doubt they would let me have a test drive though being under 25.

I've bought 5 Audis in 4 years from one dealer - and they haven't written to me. Feel quite offended...

Yeah I will email the guy on the letter tomorrow and ask about my test drive and see what the chap says.

I got my car from Aberdeen Audi 5 years ago but went into Edinburgh Audi to get a couple of things sorted so will either be because of that or they will have my details because of parts I have bought.

Maybe they are going to turn up at your house in the 6 because you are so special ;)

They did lend me a C5 RS6 for 36 hours in 2004, so why the difference now?

Maybe they read this and saved themselves the stamp?

Got the R.S.V.10 offer in the post, plus a call from the local dealer offering me the car for a day.
