21" wheels and CO2 emissions.

Post by Chesterfield » Fri Feb 27, 2015 6:48 pm

Got my V5 through today and it shows CO2 at 223g/km even with the 21" wheels.

Seems that the rules on including wheel options effect on CO2 on the emissions has not changed the RS6.

I checked this before I placed my order. Not sure how Audi UK achieved this as the wheels should have made some sort of difference, and the RS6 is only 2 points below the next threshold. On the S6, the change from 19" wheels to the optional 20" wheels does increase the published CO2 figure.

How did you get your V5? I thought they came in the post after you had taken delivery.

I've paid the money required, signed all paperwork etc in advance. They must have sorted the registration in advance too I guess.

Starting to get excited now :)

Quick q re V5, does it specify on the type box that it is an RS6 Avant? Mine doesn't. Resent it to DVLA as they had made a mistake on the VIN number but they only corrected the VIN number
