Very nice car mate, sounds like you've really looked after her!

One daft question, does only half your dash light up?

Worth every penny too by the looks of things. That Audi warranty must be a rare thing nowadays.

Sorry but I still reckon at that price you will be keeping her in the garage. The only real difference between your car and mine is the warranty and I wouldn't expect to get more than 10k for mine unless I get someone that actually appreciated all the modifications.
Current:

23' C8 RS6 Vorsprung - 23' RS E-Tron GT Carbon Vorsprung

Gone:

"Brutus"- C5 RS6 Avant - MRC stage 2 - Milltek non-res + 100 cell cats - Wagner ICs - PSS9 - H&R ARBs - OZ Superturismo LM - C6 Custom brakes - HD RNS-E - Various other bits - 555PS/832Nm
"Taz"- C7 RS6 - MRC stage 2 745PS/1095Nm
12' Cayenne Turbo, B7 RS4, S3, Cupra R, XJR, EVO VII, STI8,5,2&WRX, 106 GTI&XSI, other crap.

It does surprise me the current resale value of these cars, yes they do have some expensive repairs, but not compared to the performance you get in return.

I was looking at selling mine due to a house purchase looming in a few months, but I'm not prepared to give it away, which is what seems to be happening to a lot of owners out there.

In my eyes, this RS6 is worth every penny you've advertised it for, but footers is right when you look at current trending prices.

Is a shame your selling, its a beaut...

Can I ask what were the main issues causing the up to £30K bill not to mention the £10K you have spent? I can only assume there is a box in there some place and or snails?

I would say £30k would come up very quickly with Audi labour rate. I have spent over £10k on mine in last 2 years without box.
Would be interesting to see what the car has had done though.
