Who would do that to an RS6? Worrying.

er I would also factor in the possible poor maintenance, drc, servicing other usual niggly RS bits which will most likely be prevelent on this chavved example ! :D

I looked at this when it was last up for sale. Apart from the obvious problems of the body modifications and wheels it appeared OK. Nice colour, but I was'nt to keen on the white steering wheel and gear change. If its the same guy selling he owns a pet/horse supplies buisness and I think that's a dog toy, not a tow rope in foot well. He has had some other work done on the car, well known tuner but can't remember who, but they knew the car when I phoned them and said he had the same nose job on his previous A4/S4? I think it was well over 500 bhp. Certainly felt very quick!!!
Was'nt the car for me but could make a good project for someone.
