C7 RS6, W212 E63, or F10 M5?

Yes I’m sure a question that is never asked. I did search and came across a couple of good posts, but figured I’d ask anyway. Apologies, long post ahead. No surprise given my username, but I’m a former B7 RS4 owner. Loved the car - the engine was sublime, interior gorgeous, super practical, gearbox ...

Living with an RS6?

Former B7 RS4 owner here with a few q’s for the RS6 crew. I’m currently tossing up getting into a C7, or keeping my Disco 4 and buying an M2/M3 Competition as well. I do the occasional camping / mountain biking / snow trips that require me to drive on less than ideal surfaces, though I don’t necessa...

Re: RS6 Dirt Roads / Camping

That's quite helpful audiBond, do you have to reduce your speed significantly with the low profile tyres / low ride height?

Re: RS6 Dirt Roads / Camping

After a bit of research - I see the air suspension ones can have their ride height raised, and there’s a CETE module to control it further. However all pics I see online are in lowered mode (for obvious reasons!) Any chance someone can raise their car up and take a few snaps for me so I can get a vi...

RS6 Dirt Roads / Camping

Hi all, Prior B7 RS4 owner who went to a Land Rover Discovery 4 a few years back largely for practical purposes. I’ve been a big fan of the C7 RS6 for many years, and am tossing up getting into one. My lifestyle does include some camping - in Australia this means dirt roads that are not always in pe...

Re: The Surprise C6

Fantastic shots. I've done a little experimental light painting before but with less success.

Re: Alex's B7 RS4 Avant

I went to an F80 M3. Didn't drive it much as working in Dusseldorf then lock down. Had it lowered on H&Rs, braided hoses, DS32500's DOT5.1, geometry setup by Center Gravity, as always. I absolutely love it. It's not an RS4 B7 but it's great replacement and I think it looks fab. GLWS I'm sure it wil...

Re: Alex's B7 RS4 Avant

New shoes! Interestingly, the rear height looks fine with these, even though it hasn't changed. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161115/ea381e83e3fc27df4ce6d1ec1ad695fb.jpg http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161115/95fbc1bcf7e2945b3b70da040003d330.jpg These wheels are awesome.

Re: Chance of finding a Deep Green Avant?

I have an Avus Avant. It really grows on you, I didn't want the colour at first but now it's one of my favourites. Looks like molten metal in the sun and is a lovey dark silver that, with the fat guards and B7 curves, looks very Porsche-esque. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190903/7276087b5d7ce5...

Re: Battery disconnected

You could do both if you wanted but you only need to break the circuit to stop the battery depleting so no reason to disconnect both. Disconnecting the negative disconnects the chassis ground from the battery. The chassis acts as one big negative wire. So if you did the reverse and disconnected only...

Re: Battery disconnected

Should be fine. Just disconnect the negative terminal.

Re: Alex's B7 RS4 Avant

Yeah still planning to sell. It's up for sale now. I may or may not have priced it a little high - perhaps I subtly don't want it gone. It's the only B7 RS4 Avant for sale in Aus right now so no idea where to price it. RS4 Avants are all over the shop with pricing here. Below is a pic of the painted...
