Was that near Chiswick? I saw one on Friday in blue/silver driving the other way. Looked great.

Saw and sat in my first at the VW festival last weekend.

Very aggressive,build quality another level to my C6.

Lovely place to be Inside and looked great on Titan 21,s...wavy brake discs look good too.

Defo my next 6 after some mug has taken hit on depreciation in three years time!!

Interesting. I didn't feel it really moved things on from the C6. Quilted seats are a big question still, especially with contrast stitching.

Would have to have ramics.

I can prod and poke my C6 and it can creak and rattle like a bitch...especially the rear load area.

The C7 feels rock Solid to me compared with my C6....C6 is good but not as good IMO.

Ramics are nice but I don't track and the steels would be up to the job for my driving style.

Although dynamic plus pack gives you all the nice goodies including ramics.

LED headlights look great too.

I'm pretty sure you could poke a three year old C7 and it'd creak. Mine was pretty good to be honest, very little cabin noise.

ive had many C7 loan cars from the stealers and they even let me drive a C7 S6, I just thought it was plain, it felt like you would get board after a week, it would be mind numbing to be in, the whole lot has changed, as soon as I got back in mine I got on the motorway and planted it! and it bought the smile back to my face lol.

The C7 does look great how ever and it very in keeping with the current styling across the Audi range.

Love reading what C6 owners 'think' of the latest RS6.

IMHO, the mugs are the ones that have moved from the C5 to the C6.

The C7 S6 may be plain, but I am eager to try the C7 RS6, and hope it lives up to the reputation created by the original RS6.

Well I never moved from a C5 to a C6 so can't comment.

But I personally love the C6 and the C7 seems to have moved the game on further?

And anyone who wants to loose thousands over a short period of time is a mug IMO....or of course they aren't bothered which must be a nice position to be in?...

I personally aren't in a position to buy new so as I've said il pick up someone else's car that has taken the "hit" in a few years time.


Initial reports say the car is dynamically better than a C6 so sounds promising enough for me.

I bought my C5 in 2003 for a large amount of money, and depreciation was considerable. However IMO, I'm not a mug. I've kept the car for 10 years, so I'm fortunate to have a 1 owner, low mileage, immaculate awesome machine.

The mugs are the guys who buy second hand cars which can sadly bring them alot of expensive problems, as they're not fully aware of the history and or find it overly expensive to maintain.

That would be the gentleman who owns Preston / Blackburn / Carlisle Audi and who therefore employs me!
