New RS6 Owner

Post by ricardo21 » Tue Nov 16, 2010 12:05 am

Hi all,
I'm the very happy new owner of an '03 RS6 Avant, well loved, and cared for by previous owners, one of whom told me it was up for sale! Id been thinking of an Allroad...
MY new RS has been sympathetically improved with Bilstein shocks, MTM attention and wonderful Miltek exhaust.
Its been well cared for by Dyalinx (?) but I live in the Grim North otherwise known as the Home Of Great Driving Roads. Hartside - domain of the Superbike Loon - is a matter of 10 miles away, marvellous!.

Im looking for a 'local' specialist RS6 garage - Newcastle?, Glasgow? All suggestions welcome. Nearest one I know of so far is Manchester. I'm Carlisle so nothing here as far as I know.
Also any thoughts on winter tyres - anyone used them? Rears need changing very soon anyway so open to suggestions and thoughts.

And finally, for the odd time Im not listeningto the Miltek system; iPod adaptors any one?

Hi all, thanks for the welcomes!. Manchester is not too far away so Unit 20 is a likely stop, so will probably see you sometime Grizz!
Car is Avus silver, and looks stunning - no one believes the 135K on the clock!
Cheers
