RS6 Advice

[demon8991]

Hello All,

A friend of a friend and Audi enthusiast is looking at selling his C6 RS6 Avant 2008 70,000km due to a change of personal circumstances.

As a result he is wanting to sell it on to another enthusiast and hasn't even advertised on the internet.

I am based in Australia and the C6 is very rare, I believe there are only a couple currently for sale in the entire country, both Sedans both around $70k.

The guy selling is looking to sell the car for less than that and enough to make it a potential investment.

The car has an APR stage 1 and is dyno'd at 660hp and 1000nm, still waiting for the dyno print out.

Are there any buying tips or things to look out for?

There is a good chance I wont own it for long as I already have two Audis that I don't want to part with but I have always admired the bonkers C6.

If it's been in Australia it's whole life I doubt that the coolant pipes will have the corrosion that's normally found on European cars but I'd expect more of the heat related problems - like the oil pump shaft seal leaking and the ribbed plastic breather hoses being very brittle.
