RS6 Ownership How long you owned yours?

Post by Fingers01 » Thu Oct 14, 2010 7:17 pm

For me it's nearly a year - just a newbie i know.

I still smile everytime I get inside it,turn that ignition key, shift into "D" and know i am driving something quite special the balance between performance, power and poise is superb.

:D :kissmyrings:

2 years 4 months for me. There's something quite exhilarating about each journey - wondering what I'm going to break next... How many points that last blast might have gotten me, what was that creak / jolt / whine?

Ah the joys.

Then I get back into my company car and think it must be broken as it's so god-awful-slow!

Just about 2 months for me as well.

A few things to sort out before it is how I want it! .....and probably a few more that I haven't even thought of adding to the list until after reading more of the stuff on here!!!

Oh, and getting used to seeing the big orange light in the middle of the dash now!!!
