Hmmm, the plot thickens...

According to this link: http://www.tyresmoke.net/forum/audi-rs/ ... rs6-2.html - Jay Kay had his RS6 stolen?

I then found this: http://funkin.com/news/1875

So if that was his, then poss. CAT D?

Pure speculation on my part as there could be more than 1 purple RS6... but still.

Colour looks poor on internet but in the flesh is looks good.
Yes I am the new owner of said RS6.

It was Jay Kays car and no it wasn't stolen recovered, http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/ne ... 157049.ece a main dealer would surely have sent such a vehicle to trade if it was.

Car is superb, my first RS Audi and I'm loving the power complex it gives me each tim I drive it. Condition is great, no squeeks or rattles, still has Audi warranty and two years free servicing from Audi Manchester + a £2k discount of the price & 6 months tax.

I would have prefered red with black leather but you can't always be fussy over colour, mechanicals & paperwork are more important.

:D
