How to tell if it's a facelift model ?
Hi
I'm looking at a few RS6's and one of them is a 2015 model registered 6/7/15.
I'm struggling to find out from the seller and also from Audi UK if it is indeed a facelift model, which I believe was from April 15.
Any help would be gratefully received !

do you have a photo? all facelift have the matrix headlights front and rear
Re: How to tell if it's a facelift model ?
Facelift was from Dec build. Clearly cars can be registered soon after or not so soon after. I’d expect a July registered car to be FL.

Thanks guys, it has the matrix lights but listed under the cars options which was what got me thinking.............
Is there any other way to check, any interior differences or anything ?

Great. Last question then. What if it is not a facelift but had the led light upgrade as an option ?
Re: How to tell if it's a facelift model ?
I'm quite sure the light upgrade also requires a front bumper and grill upgrade too. I also think the facelift comes with Alcantara on the door cards and a sat nav map option between the two dials on the dashboard. however someone with more knowledge may correct me on that.

Scott’s picture of the non-fl (bottom picture)has the led upgrade. Standard headlights were Bi-zen. Fl cars all had matrix as standard. Alcantara door cards were my16 update. It would be better to just post a picture of the cars you are looking at for us to identify them for you.slowfastmonkey wrote: ↑Wed May 09, 2018 3:57 pmGreat. Last question then.

Re: How to tell if it's a facelift model ?
I had this exact same issue when looking at adverts.
The fool proof way to check is to see what tax bracket it falls into for road tax.
The facelift is cheaper as it is slightly more economical by about 7g/km and costs £315 per year. It makes 223g/km.
The non facelift gets 229g/km and costs £540 per year!

Re: How to tell if it's a facelift model ?
Also look at the bott9m of the grille. The pre facelift cars have much rounder bottom corners and the facelift is much squarer. The shape of the DRLs is a dead giveaway though..
