RS6 c5: good purchase?

Post by DUR » Fri Jan 21, 2011 8:36 pm

Hello all:

Long time since I last wrote.

As some might remember, I currently drive a wonderful RS4 b7 Avant, that I'm soon trading in for a wonderful Porsche 964 C2.

As a family car , I'm thinking on buying a RS6 Plus c5 Avant that I've seen, which belongs to a collector.

I wanted to know if the c5 RS6 has been known for having any specific problems. What should I look after when buying the car? The car I've seen has 130.000 km on the clock, would that be too many?

Is the RS6 overall a good purchase?

Thank you in advance.

Cheers.
