Avants are definatly holding their value better than the saloons too...

funny that.. don't really understand that.. I mean 450bhp is 450bhp?

Dave

[Thorney]

Thats down to lack of competition, I mean the saloon has the M5, E55 AMG as alternatives, there's not much to compare with if you need/want an estate. One of the reasons I bought the RS4 in the first place - got a dog and the RSPCA ain't too chuffed if you sling him in the boot [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

We never saw that many 2nd hand RS4's for sale so soon after launch [img]images/graemlins/033102bad_1_prv.gif[/img]

I wonder if many of them are cancelled orders that the dealer ended up with nobody lined up for, so went on the forecourt (after all the staff had a rip around the block in it), or genuine 2nd hand cars?

[Rupert]

Ah, the good old days.

[RichRS6]

Best not to think about it really, I always wished I had the money to buy mine when it was new but now looking at the depreciation maybe not.

[Rupert]

I thought the new owners would like to see what some people paid for their cars.... and I thought I did well not to suffer the £15k++ depreciation that someone else did in the first year owning my car.
Still, if I was back in the same situation as 5 1/2 years ago, I'd buy the same car and do it all again. It's been expensive, but it has been a BLAST.
I went out for a another pointless drive this evening, giving no thought to the price of petrol, and enjoyed every moment.

[RichRS6]

Yeah, No regrets here either, can't think of a more enjoyable way to spend the money.................

O.K. maybe there are other ways which may have been just as enjoyable but apart from a beer gut, a shriveled liver and V.D. wouldn't have much to show for it !!

[Coxall8395]

The prices are helpful to potential c6 owners to let themselves know what hit they are going to take.

[RichRS6]

Just out of interest what was the new price of a C5 RS6 Avant............

[S3ADF]

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

[amanda1]

Mine was £64,000

[RichRS6]

Thats more than a new C6 RS6 would cost isn't it ?

I wonder how the price of a C5 RS6 compares to a BMW M5 of the same year................

Just checked Pistonheads and there's a 2002 BMW E39 M5 with 78,000 Miles on there for £12,990 (from a trader not a dealership) so (to answer my own question) I would say there is little if any difference and they both seem to have depreciated at the same rate.
