IIRC there is only one actual production white saloon in the UK and Klausters which was a very well vinyl wrapped version. There is a white Avant as well but I haven't heard of any others in the UK.

Feeling flush? I know you want a saloon, but this Avant looks pretty awesome imo: http://www.pistonheads.com/SALES/632011.htm

Yep, at least a few months....

Quiet a few others have been too (I was looking for ages for one) but this one sticks in the mind being white. Think the dealer had a few others at the time - one I was considering (that was a lot cheaper).

Sorry mate, my feeble attempt at sarcasm wasn't obvious enough.
It's been up for about 12 months, originally for £60k, I think.

Dont worry bud, sarcasm is lost on me - I'm Scottish.
12 months though, long time to hold onto it. Dont reckon it would have cost that new (60K)

I saw a white saloon near where I live in Cheshire on saturday - I have to say, it looked brilliant. The only downside for me was that it stood out a bit too much. The whole reason I bought an RS4 was because it is understated, at a quick glance and most people wouldn't be able to tell the difference between an RS4 and an S-line (apart from those in the know, of course)
