[PhilT]

Going to keep the RS4 and chop the RS6+ in for a new toy (Nissan GT-R).

Will do Steve. I've had a few GT-R experiences and they tick the box I'm looking for - Value for money bahnstorming track toy.

That said, there ain't nothing like a proper RS ("Proper" as in avant ) to go to B&Q and get 10 lengths of 2.4 m decking and 4 125l bags of compost. In fact the GT-R is best described by the statement "Reverse tardis" (Copyright W8PMC).

If you take the right combination of corners at the right speed, you'll have a landscaped garden in the boot by the time you get home!

Good question. I just decoded the options sticker. Could multi-function mean that you can steer and change gear (paddles) at the same time....? LOL

[PhilT]

Replacement car in my sights. Price slashed to £19500.

[PhilT]

Just about to get an MOT, so will come with 12 months T&T.

[BillTheButcher]

Is this still for sale?

[PhilT]

It is, I just stopped actively advertising it due to the state of the market. It's a quality motor, I just fancy a GT-R.

[BillTheButcher]

Did it pass the MOT OK?

What are you asking for it now?

Ta.

[PhilT]

It flew through the MOT, so has the balance of 12 months MOT and 12 Months Tax.

Here's the full description I put on the PH advert:

2004 Audi RS6 Plus
Description of a standard RS6 Plus (As per Wikipedia)
Between April and September 2004, there was a final limited run of an even higher-performance RS6, named the Audi RS6 Plus. This had an increased engine power output (identification code: BRV), and produced over 353 kilowatts (480 PS; 473 bhp) at 6,000-6,400 rpm, with the same 560 newton metres (413 ft•lbf) of torque at 1,950-6,000 rpm. This engine was also developed and manufactured in the UK by Cosworth Technology (now known as MAHLE Powertrain). The additional performance was achieved with a new engine control unit (ECU), and two additional coolant radiators behind the side-mounted intercoolers (these were standard fitment on the standard RS6 in hotter climate countries). Official performance figures indicate the discipline of sprinting from standstill to 100 kilometres per hour (62.1 mph) in 4.6 seconds. The RS6 Plus carries on to reach 200 km/h (124.3 mph) in 17.36 seconds, and has an official top speed of 280 km/h (174.0 mph).
The RS6 Plus came with Dynamic Ride Control (DRC) as standard, and also included a no-cost option of "Sports Suspension Plus", which lowered the standard sports suspension by a further 10 millimetres (0.39 in) over the standard RS6. A revised steering rack, with a reduced ratio of 14.3 for firmer steering feel was included, and resulted in a turning circle of 11.7 metres (38.4 ft.). The brakes now included cross-drilled discs. The wheels were only available in the 9Jx19" '5-arm design' alloys, finished in "anthracite" (dark grey), with 255/35 ZR19 96Y XL tyres.
The car was available only as an Avant, and was sold only in European markets. Visual differences for the RS6 Plus included the "black optic pack", which consisted of black finish to the framing of the radiator grille, exterior window trims, tailgate lower trim, roof rails, and exhaust tailpipes. It quickly sold out once it was released (999 units in total). The last three digits of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) are reproduced on a plaque inside the car, displayed on the centre console.
