Hi guys & girls,
Sadly, after almost 4 years of extremely enjoyable ownership, I decided to sell the RS6 and 'grow up' a little - I say a little, because I've just bought a 2006 S8! It's a fabulous machine, although not as agile as the RS6 of course. But that V10 engine sounds glorious, and there are so many nice toys to play with, hahah!
The RS6 was surprisingly cheap to run over the 4 years, with only some CV joints, crank sensor, window regulator, and a few other small things. However, I realised that it could become expensive very soon. With 110K miles, and an original gearbox, discs that would soon need replacing and an imminent major service with timing belt change, now was the time to make the move.
I'd like to thank the great people on this forum that helped me when I had those few problems. May your RS6s run smoothly for many years to come!
Cheers,
~Chris
