Wanted: C5 RS6

Post by Keaney » Sat Jan 22, 2011 10:01 am

I've been keeping my eye out for a good RS6 and watching the For Sale board for some time. I'm new to the site so hoping this all falls within the rules.

After having 6 cars in so many years i'm now looking for car to keep so i'm a bit picky as to what i want from an RS6.

Must haves are:
Silver / Grey paint work
Black Leather interior (no offence to cream owners)
Carbon / Alloy Dash (no offence to the wood look which my A4 has)
FSH with timing belt change
Coilovers
Good bodywork
No gearbox issues

Nice to haves are:
Black Optics 8)
TV
Any RS6+ mods
MRC Tuned
<100k Miles

Would prefer to avoid any Cat D cars etc and the car needs to be realistically priced.

Would also prefer OC car as they tend to be more looked after.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

fancy a plus ? mine's for sale.

I can be flexible on the price, and in terms of unexpected repair bills you won't find a safer buy than mine as most common rs6 faults have been recently covered and it still has audi all-component warranty (very rare) until 26.03.11

This looks great, nice colour, alu inserts, black leather, new discs, no DRC, much better rns-e stereo and very low miles, 12 months warranty. No I'm not the seller!!

Not cheap though but a good warranty is £1000 +

Haha cheers mate

Been looking at them for a while to be honest, the first is ok but for that price you could consider a plus.

Second one is nice but I'm put off by the miles and lack of info

You are right you could get a plus but it would have at least double the miles and would have no warranty.

I know what its like to keep looking. I spent 2 years!!!

Umming and aahing. Drives you mad eventually :-)

Good Luck!

Haha thanks, I've been looking since the middle of last year so hoping to find one soon!

Then I'll spend a few days detailing it for the bad weather that will no doubt return!

I've just been offered £14750, so if you can beat it, and live with it being a saloon, it's yours!
