What you'd done effectively is marry a gorgeous woman who is perfect in every department, only to then make the mistake of shagging her younger sister!

Had the phonecall over the weekend, car is not even in build yet... Build to start on July 7th, with delivery expected around mid August...

Now seriously contemplating my order... I did see a lovely Daytona Grey car on the M1 yesterday, it did look mean....

Lewy, I think if you ask the dealer they will be able to tell you if a colour change will alter the build date or not :thumbs:

Original order end of March, changed the colour from Prism to Daytona Grey 1 week later. The build has been locked down since early June. The start of the build is scheduled for July 7th... some 6 weeks after I locked the build in.....

Sorry guys, the order is now cancelled. I'm going to stick with my trusty A6 TDI Quattro...

Enjoy the RS6 beasts!

Yes Lewy, why the change of mind when you are so close?
"UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" ----is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" -----------is how far you take the fence with you.
