I pose this question from time to time but just interested to know if any other forum members have experienced the joys of ownership from new? I bought my C5 in November 2003 fresh off the production line and it's still giving me smiles every time I drive it. With 71,000 miles on the clock and only ...

I hope I'm not tempting fate here but my ownership experience has been pretty routine. Replaced the alternator at 47k miles, still on DRC but with routine shock replacements (although still have one original shock on the car!) and 70,500 miles on the clock. No problems with the TC (fingers crossed) ...

Hi All

As per the title, I'm always interested to know how many of these glorious cars have only seen one owner. As for mine, coming up for nineteen years in my ownership having driven it out of the showroom brand new. Still puts the same smile on my face now as it did back then

Had mine from new, will be sixteen years in November. Still nothing else I'd want as a daily driver after all this time. The loud pedal always evokes the same thrill as it did on day one and never fails to puts a smile on my face

Had nothing done to mine ie still in standard form and carried on through 155 to 170 mph on the speedo a number of years ago on the autobahn! Always worked on the basis 170 mph showing on the speedo was probably actually nearer 155 mph in the real world?

52 years of age, owned car from new (nearly 14 years now) and no mods - £141.00 fully comp with Admiral.

I bought my car from Camberley Audi 13 years ago and in all that time have gone there for all servicing/warranty issues. I was growing increasingly concerned about the apparent growing lack of knowledge of the vehicle and the final straw came a couple of months ago when I tried to book the car in fo...

65k here. Owned from new coming on 13 years now!

Hi All

As per the title, just wondering if anyone else out there has owned their C5 from new. Still love the car every time I get in it and can't think of anything else I would rather be in as my every day driver after over twelve years.

Has anyone carried out a Terraclean petrol and induction clean on their C5 RS6? We had this done on my wife's S3 recently and the car is running very noticeably better and is quicker with greater fuel efficiency. This is supposed to be a preventative measure to protect injectors etc but I would be k...

Camberley Audi every time. Talk to Rob, Martin and Stuart.

I paid £59k in November 2003 with absolutely no extras added. Still have the car and love it as much as the day I drove it out of the showroom. Still makes me laugh when I get asked how many miles to the gallon it'll do and a couple of passengers have even asked if it's a diesel
