RRS and taste & class are another 3 things never stated in the same sentence. I would have neither. One is a 'builder done good' prperty developer gezeers wet dream, and the other is £100k's worth of the automotive equivalent of The Gettysburg Address. I bought a C5 new for £60k back in the day, goo...

Don't buy in to this residual bollocks. If you're worried about residuals on a 100k car, you're buying the wrong car. You'll definitely take a bath on it whatever spec it is. Expect to lose 40-50k over three years. 10 years ago I reckoned 50 % residual after 3 years, depending on brand & model. I r...

We've all got opinions - haven't yet met anyone who wouldn't have another RS6 in a flash!

You have now. Ridiculous money for something as anodyne as it is pointless, and again I speak from experience.

The man maths is simple. If you are wealthy enough to dump at least £30k in the first year and choose possibly the dullest , uneconomical, overpriced, heavy, point and squirt car on earth between £80 - £110 k, buy the RS6.
Had 2, the C5 and C7....never again.

anyone upgraded from standard ?. Wish I had...the one in my Defender is better quality.

Straight discount, no px.

Went for the 4 rather than the 6, had c5 and c6 and vowed never again. Point and squirt barges IMO.
The c7 looks very dull, again IMO. Just can't see why anyone would take the hit on such a heavy, un involving car for such an obscene amount of money.

Spec from factory around 4 months ago.

Prism...arriving Tuesday

£2500 approx....

Delivering Tuesday.

Ohh My Bad .. I thought I read from the Pros and Cons thread you where going to a Cayenne .. Reading it again I see you mentioned the Boxster Coupe (aka Caymen) But did say you where going "back into a [BMW X5] 4.0 SD" back on topic .. Was that £ 1.26 for "normal" unleaded ?? Normal unleaded. Never...

13.1 MPG Sounds about what I get crawling around in London Traffic .. "Normal" city (aka around Berkshire) traffic around 16.5 Good luck with the Cayenne Robbo .. I had one of the V6 3.2's and agree they are great cars, I loved mine (but for very different reasons to a RS6) and the face lifts impro...

Now sold the car, going next month, decided to check MPG again, purely around town, no runs or motorway driving.

72lt/ 16 Gallons @ £1.26 lt @ £91.66

Miles....210.

13.1 MPG

Feel for you there, McFreedom. But as others have said, this is a lemon car rather than indicative of the brand. As some of the problems are just down to the dealer, can you confirm with dealership it is? Wouldn't be so quick to judge whether Lemon Car or really is a little indicitive: 1 Visit for ...

After a year...'point and squirt' wears off I can assure you, and anyone who considers 'going to the shops an event in one' may need to get out more. I have a Road Angel Vantage also...good piece of kit. does any one else get the idea Robbo does not like his car ? 8) Robbo - out of interest what ca...
