Re: Taking RS6 to continent this summer

Something else you might want to think about, depending on the Nav option you have, is getting a pre-paid SIM card that covers the whole of Europe. I always have a card from 3 as it covers pretty much the whole of Europe and you get 12 months to use up the data. WiFi in the car for my kids was a god...

Re: sold but not forgotten

W124 - sensible car... built from single piece of granite. A single piece of granite, that needs maintaining :-). Got to love it though. 3 litre straight six with the sportline suspension and steering (all relative of course!) that you can carry a ton of wood in the back of. DSC_0305 copy.JPG

Re: sold but not forgotten

Sale is just that I need to make use of the money for other things in the next 12 months (house refurb). I have a W124 Mercedes that I have never been able to bring myself to get rid of that I will use as a daily drive, but I have gone the other direction for future car and have put a deposit down o...

sold but not forgotten

So. After a great 18 months my FL disappeared off to Fontain, via Tootle (given Bit_evi's experience, I'm glad I did!) Anyway, it is on their website straight away and the next owner will be a lucky one. Fontain were going to put a new set of tyres on, but if you were looking, you might want to hagg...

Re: What you's guys think of this?

I also noticed that there is a black optics kit fitted but this wasn't / isn't available on a black car. All sorts of questions raised on that car.... You can get black window surrounds on a black car if you go for the carbon pack, but this car doesn't have carbon. Also has body coloured/black mirr...

Re: Tell me I'm not mad...

I've done 19k miles in 14 months in my RS6. I'm not in the position of just being able to splash the cash on the car so had to work the maths. In the end, for me, whichever way I looked at it, buying and running and RS6 is not a financially sensible choice (nor should it be, you could argue). It pay...

Re: MPG

21 mph average, now that is depressing! He says, going to check his own quickly!

Re: Brakes versus tyres.

I've just ticked over 19k miles after 14 months since new and have 4.5mm left on the original set of tyres.

Genuine RS4 B7 wheels and winter tyres ***Deposit Taken***

Having sold my RS4 B7 avant and settled into a C7 nicely, it is time to find a new home for my winter wheels and tyres. All four wheels are straight and true, but there are a few kerb marks on them and they could do with a refurb if you want them to be perfect. As I had them purely for winter, it di...

MMI data in Europe

Hi, Not really RS6 specific, but I'll be driving from the UK via France and Switzerland and into Italy this summer and will have the family in with me on the way back. I usually use a pre-paid EE SIM for 4G, but know this won't work in Europe so I want to know what anyone else uses for SIMs/data for...
