Hi Everyone,
I'm new here. I've just bought a C6 after 10 years in a C5 RS6.
I'm looking forward to contributing.
I bought my C6 off a forum member- Martín. I'd been admiring it for years and asked him to consider me if he ever wanted to sell it.
I've attached a picture.

Thanks Pete.
The forum seems pretty dead here. Very different to the C5 forum which is still busy.

Maybe they're just too reliable?
In any case I predict that things are going to get a bit more interesting around here fairly soon....

Welcome, I'm fairly new too...it may be quiet but lots of useful information here.
Great looking car, very similar to mine
except mine has blacked out window trim and roof rails ( from the factory) and a silver grill surround, the opposite of yours

I’m a RS6 C6 newbie too. Picked up mine last week. Absolutely love it. Just need a little more noise!! I didn’t start a newbie thread as there didn’t seem to be much activity. Superb cars!

Yeap, past 3-ish years or so it's died down quite a lot as the newer C7 forum got bigger.

Would that have been around the time you left the country by any chance, Ian?

Yeap, been in Saudi just over 3 years now and driven my car probably less than 5k miles in that time, hell with COVID travel restrictions (UK and/or Saudi) I haven't even been in the UK for 18 months

Just a Ford Explorer - cheap, lots of parts, adequate-ish AWD system for desert runs etc but annoyingly "American" with it's billion safety beeps and bongs!
