Not many of us.
Not many of us.
I was suprised to find out that there are just over 950 RS6's on the roads in the UK. Although from the information I have the peak was only just under 1100. Saying that the C6 is an even rarer (is that even a word?) beast with 14 on the road in the year of it's launch and just over 370 now.
R18 GTX Estate > Saphire 2.0i Ghia > R19 16v > Vectra V6 SRi > M3 > RS6 Avant
Re: Not many of us.
i see more C6's than C5's on the road
although TBF, the C5's are probably in the garage getting fixed !

Re: Not many of us.
It's nice to be in an exclusive club, I can't say I've seen a single Avant on the road since I've had mine! 
Mart.

C6 RS6 Plus with a few sensible mods...
Re: Not many of us.
Where did that figure come from?
Daytona RS6 C5 Avant. Viper'd, Billies, Waggers, MTM box brain, C6 stoppers, xcarlink, R8 coolant cap (woohoo)
///M3 E46 | XC90 (V8, natch) | Passat GTE | RR Classic V8 flapper

Re: Not many of us.
I can't say where the figures come from but let's just say, each of those cars is Taxed, MOT'd and Insured.

Re: Not many of us.

It's all here folks. Being DVLA, there are a few errors.
This is a big xls file with all makes and models.

Re: Not many of us.
There is one maybe two C5's around me plus of course MO's Plus.
However, there are about 6 x C6 that I know of and most of them are Misano
I have only ever seen 1 x B5 RS4 locally, but loads and loads and loads and loads of B7's
