RS246.com Forum :: The World's #1 Audi R, S and RS Enthusiast Community

I've owned my RS6 since 2009 and every year it does the type of journey it was intended for.
London - Meribel in a day carrying a family of five. (usually about 12 hrs door to door).

This year there was a massive traffic problem at the base of the alps around Moutiers and the car ended
up running for about 16hrs straight.Didn't miss a beat.

Serviced by MRC a couple of weeks before the trip.

Heres a picture from behind.

Awesome.

mate I would love to do that run!!! maybe it should be organised for all members lollol get those tents ready!

I bet half the time was spent just trying to get out of London!!

Made it back in 12hrs door to door.

Cruise control set to a ton,with 5 on board it munched the miles.

I am sure it is more economical since Doug at MRC mapped it.

Only stopped twice for 98 octane and coffee.

Didn't miss a beat.

I am not sure there is a better car to take a family across Europe.

Same here in my RS4 B7. Audi service and MRC health check before I left
Also 2.5 fuel stops each way 5 total
Les Arcs to Cov in 16 hours with a delay of 39 miles in 5 hours !

Thanks for this thread, I'm looking for a car for a similar journey to Chatel

Preparing for this years journey.
RS6 off to MRC shortly.
Hi to everyone here,haven't been able to log in for a while but I've been lurking.

LOL, I started reading this thread and though 'WTF; when did I reply to this', then I realised the date!

Did a London-Walsall-London blast yesterday having let the missus have the car for most of the last year.
It's running great,hasn't used a drop of oil in 12 months and about 4000 miles and feels quicker than my 997 turbo
off the line.
Still seriously impressive.
