Giving up mr RS6
Giving up mr RS6
My RS6 is going. It is coming up to three years old and its been the perfect car.
I was so so close to getting the RS6 performance, or the S8 performance, but despite my best efforts, I could not get a demo from anywhere, or if I could, it was just for a 30 min spin. I therefore have left the brand, which is a real shame.
However, I am now getting very excited about my new car that should be arriving shortly. A Panamera Turbo. Porsche gave me a demo car for 24 hrs no peoblem and I loved it . I think I will have the best of both worlds, the performance of the RS, but a bit more comfort like a Merc.
Couldnt wait for the Turismo version, so the dogs will just have to squeeze into the hatchback.
I hope Ive done the right thing and wont have regrets in a few months

A new one?
Love the look of the new Panamera & i'm sure the Turbo would be a hoot.
Know what you mean about demos, when i was looking at a 991 Turbo S, my local dealer had no issue letting me take their Demonstrator for the weekend & i certainly got to exploit the car fully.
Audi did let me take the R8 V10+ out for 2 days also, however i needed to take out my own daily insurance which was a bit of a cheek really.

Re: Giving up mr RS6
You'll love it. I've only sampled the 4S, and that was pretty rapid, the Turbo will be a hoot. I will see if I can have a lend of a Turbo S in due course. The interior is fantastic and I like the looks a lot more than it's predecessor.
I've said many a time that the Audi dealership network, with a few exceptions, and certainly AUK have lost the plot when it comes to dealing with their premium product. I've got a good relationship with my OPC now, they don't bat an eyelid at handing of the keys. No quibbling over filling it up on return, just drive and enjoy.
Still running in my TTS......my poor eyeballs.

I hate porkas. IMO they are for men with small willies. I might be a China man but luckily I don't suffer in that department , I can reach right up between the big fat layers and still get in the hole.
