Which speed camera detector?

Hi guys, Been a while since I posted here. I went to the dark side and swapped my c6 rs6 for a merc e63 amg. Anyway, I've been trying to update the camera locations on my road angel plus only to find it won't update due to me having windows 7 64 bit (been a while since I updated). I read the faq's o...

Well I'm pleased to say that I've finally got my car run in. All I can say is that I'm very impressed. I can't really tell if it's any quicker than the Audi there is so little in it. It may be that the Audi is a little quicker in the mid range due to those turbos but the Merc feels quicker due to th...

RE: Anyone want to buy a c6 Rs6?

I did make a few calls just before I got rid of it and the best price I got was a grand less than what mercedes gave me for it so I guess I didn't do too badly. The suprising thing was that most of the audi dealers didn't want it. They explained that because the production run has come to an end aud...

RE: Anyone want to buy a c6 Rs6?

Probably, although the sales guy at mercedes (whom I have a good relationship with) said that they let it go for what they gave me.
Not sure if he is telling porkies but he did say the manager was desperate to get rid as they are a heavy depreciator.

I've just been looking for my old car (as you do!) and noticed that Peterborough Audi have in fact got it up for sale. The Merc dealer at york did a fast job in moving it along. If anyone is thinking of buying it, I got £50,000 for it and they have it up for £59,995. Should be a good bit of info for...

I managed to get some pictures done after lunch yesterday. Amazingly the car stayed fairly clean on the way there. I've also made a short video of the lovley sound from the new beast. Not sure how to embed a video so the link is just below. Here you go guys. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiElD1gB5Y...

I'm going out for lunch tomorrow so will hopefully (weather permitting) get a chance to take a few pictures. I'll get them posted asap. Another thing I have noticed is that the dab tuner is nowhere near as good as the Audi's. I had to drive somwhere where I know it's a good reception before it even ...

Yeah, I've read evo and he did seem rather taken with it I noticed. I should be sideways by then! I've gone for the mechanical limited slip differential, so that along with the wet weather should equal some fun ;) None of this electronic jiggery pokery for me. One thing I have also noticed is that t...

Finally after four months it's arrived!

A few of you may remember I started a topic under the heading "looks like I'll be leaving then". Well, after four and a bit months of waiting (was meant to be three, but I'm sure all dealers are liars just the same as all drive through McDonalds staff get the order wrong every time). My Mercedes E63...

RE: fifth Gear

I've just ordered the e63 merc.
I like the feeling that it wants to kill you, just adds to the exitement for me.
See the thread 'looks like I'll be leaving then' and I go a bit more in depth as to why I have made my decision.

I used to have the previous shape E63 Merc and it was terrific fun. I think that is what I am missing with the Rs6, hence I'm going back, it's just too grippy. Worst thing was that full beans overtaking in the wet at anything less than 40mph resulted in wheelspin which was a bit hairy the first few ...

It wasn't Tiff, it was Jason Plato in last nights episode. The soaking wet conditions was hardly a fair way to have a battle between them as the Rs is always going to smoke a rear wheel drive car. Looks like I'm not going to be dissapointed with my decision to switch brands. Here's the link for anyo...
