Re: Wanted - 'metallic silver' C5 RS6 (not avus)

I see where you are coming from, but I can't help preferring an unmolested example, and a retrim (to me) seems unfaithful to the original, I know I know, Im off to put back on my white jacket! Going to keep lookng for a while, as its only been a coupld of months, but if all else fails, I suspect my ...

Re: Wanted - 'metallic silver' C5 RS6 (not avus)

I think that probably might be the route I might be taking . . . I have been looking about a fair bit, and will keep looking for a little longer (I'm in no rush - need to make sure I've exhausted all avenues), but its looking like either I go for a different coloured car, or a retrim :/

Re: Wanted - 'metallic silver' C5 RS6 (not avus)

Afaik, you can't remove the door cards Alcantara wrapped section to change them, and in any case I reckon that unless you retrim the entire car, there will always be a glaringly obvious (and extremely annoying) difference between new + old . . . I really am my worst enemy :(

Re: Wanted - 'metallic silver' C5 RS6 (not avus)

Having seen some detailed history/pics of +315 (thanks again Woly), I can confirm that it does indeed look to be in stunning condition, a testament to both you guys! Unfortunately however, it reinforced for me that I really dont want the Alcantara mix (hadn't realised its on the door cards too), fus...

Re: Wanted - 'metallic silver' C5 RS6 (not avus)

I often wondered if it looked 'more' silvery than usual, but put it down to the black optics making the colour stand out more?

Re: Wanted c5 RS6 Avant

The BHP + from what I can see looks a bit suspect, granted I havent called to enquire but the alloys look too 'black' and there's no number plaque on the centre consol/gearbox cover . . . :? Now, I suppose this could be because a recent re-spray of the wheels might h=not have been an OEM colour matc...

Re: Wanted - 'metallic silver' C5 RS6 (not avus)

Nick Johnson had a silver non-Avus Plus for sale a while back, an ex forum car, optics and RNSE, mileage was dead on 100 iirc Tbh, if I found the right car the mileage wouldn't bother me that much and this would have been right up my alley . . . but only an RS4 showing at NJM atm ;( Thanks for the ...
