Not seen that before. Face palm at the manual comment. If they wanted one of them (and by one of, I obviously mean the only one) the should have talked to Bam Bam. Bit insulting comparing it to a chuffing transit too! Still, enjoyed watching the C5, it's still a fantastic looking car.

It's in a totally different league to the other two cars and like you said Marc, insulting comparing it to a van!

I laughed at the manual comment too, embarrasing that they made a mistake like that.

I'd still expect Tiff to know it never came with a manual. He hangs out with those evo guys now, I bet they'd be giving him a ribbing.

I have both the RS6 and a 2012 Transit and the Transit has been more unreliable. So far the Transit has had 3 batteries, a turbo, a DPF pressure sensor, wiring loom and trailer control unit. Broke down on Monday and now needs a dual mass flywheel and a modified oil pump, all this in 50000 miles. Thank god the Transit is a works van.

Of all the possible adjectives I thought I was going to be called for owning a C5 RS6, I must admit that "Cheapskate" never crossed my mind :)
