Nice one there Tombs. I think I looked at this car on PH when I was trying to decide on that wheels to go for - and it pretty much made up my mind for me.

And best thing about this car... it also has a sunshine roof

Lovely car! Mine has a solar sunroof too, how does it work?

Solar cells power the fans at a complete guess thus keeping the car that little bit cooler when it's sat in the sun on those hot days.

weel done mate,
so what made you go back to one?

That looks like a cracker. Good price too.

That is identical to mine ! Only difference is Suspension as I have KW and alcantara head lining.

Solar sunroof is a great bit of kit........... BUT

You need to make sure it has had a temp mod fitted, otherwise on a cold sunny day the car sucks in damp air and you get into your car evertime to find all the windows misted up !

Another great idea but flawed by Audi. Maybe these ideas come from the Microsoft department at Audi where we the consumer have to work out whats wrong.

Well, we've got a Black 2007 S-Line 2.0TQ A3 Sportsback with all the toys to shoot around town in and the RS6 will be used for longer journeys (work etc) so wear and tear should be low. Grizz quite rightly has now become the guy to go to for all things RS6 and offers imo a great service at a very good price. My previous ownership was blighted by DRC trouble and Audi got up my nose with their response. I also tried to treat the car like my previous RS4 and S4, (nipping around town in etc) its not really built for that imo, its a point and go weapon and long cruising with its weight and warp speed capabilities. Plus I just love the the sound of a V8! Its got a milltek, been remapped and has had the major service done. Its got all the extra's and spec I could ask for sunroof, dimming mirrors, RNS-E etc... and Im going to stop worrying about DRC and gear box issues and enjoy the car this time round.
