+1 from me bam but I see what you mean and if I had done the way I wanted I would have brought martins but alas he had sold his so I did it my way not that I have any regrets apart from the fact I could of brought a c6 for the cost of mine plus the mods but hey I have no regrets as the c5 is by far the best looking rs6 :audibash: I would hate to work out what my fuel costs are for 25,000 mls in just over 12ths :drink: :thumbsdown:
950 nm torque!

Assuming you averaged 16 MPG over 25,000 miles, Amanda, at a price of 1.38, then your fuel bill would have been £9,802.51. No need to thank me. :thumbs:

Audi aren't exclusive, they are horribly common. The fourth biggest selling car brand in the UK! I wish they were exclusive. The C5 RS model is though if that's what you meant. :thumbs:

Edit: I take it that is what you meant as you said 'the Audi..'
Yeah. Should have written "my Audi" which is a C5 RS6.

I did have a 993 some years ago but with three kids and a wife, found I'd only use it for work and use the family wagon at weekends. Also when parked at work, my customers assumed I was charging too much cause I owned a Porsche. Now they're ok with my Audi estate! It does seem to me that more and more 911's are driven by women now days. Wonder why?
