ha ha, yes it actually does have a 2.5tdi badge on the back, I just photoshopped it out..!

The warranty is with WMS and is a 4* warranty

Also, forgot to mention I still have the RNS-d and CD changer which came out of the car.

RS6 Avant C5 04/04 £13.5k FSH

Hi there looking to sell my RS6 Avant. I have been thrilled with the car, I now have a new company car coming so really don't want to see it stuck on my drive all week teasing me... I have a stealth / Q car – no outward indication of its potential which also means it doesn’t get the attention fr...

Hi Paul I replaced it with an alpine ixa-w404r, it has radio, ipod hook up and a touchscreen but no sat nav or tv. The unit was a simple fit, provided the guys have the correct leads (took a 2nd visit to get these) and in conjunction with the existing bose it makes the sound quality superb and very ...

RE: Floaty rear end, ooh er.

Hmm, mine seems to have a little shimmy / tail wiggle which has made me think is there enough air in the rear tyres but always 40psi so no probs there. Mine is on PSS9s too, it didn't do it before but its not too big a deal provided you don't overreact.

I have been using my RS6 for about 50k miles now, over the last 2 years, I have found the following to be true for me: Put in optimax and get about 340 -360 miles to the tankful. Put in normal unleaded and get 310-335 miles to the tankful. It does seem to improve the mileage achievable and it does m...

It works fine, has the cd changer too.

£250.00

well, I just checked and I have done 12000 miles in under 3 months (time for another service natch!), the car has been fabulous - 96k miles now and still counting. By my reckoning that is about £2700 on fuel. I could have halved that by using a volvo diesel but boy oh boy it would have been boring!

yeah, I get 19mpg pretty much all the time, whether spanking it or just taking it steady. I do find that motorway consumption is better at 90 than at 70 - not sure why but on a 200 mile trip to manchester I went there very slowly, sticking to 70, no air con on and driving really gently - 19mpg, then...

I bought mine for the practicality angle - 2 young kids, like to go sea kayaking and run a display company. Best bit is I can use it in place of a van - regularly go to the pallet place and they put 5 euro pallets in the back using their fork lift truck, It is a joy to watch them do it so carefully!...
