The Appeal
An Audi RS6 Avant is all the car you’d ever need. It’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing - the ultimate ‘Q Car’ of its day and a worthy addition to every driveway. It boasts the typically Teutonic practicality you’d expect from an Audi estate, but behind the RS6’s unassuming aesthetics lies a fire-breathing 572 bhp V10. This gave it E63 AMG and M5-slaying performance whilst outwardly looking the least performance-orientated of the three. How cool is that?!
This 2008 example is an early Gen 2 has had a great deal of money spent on it over the years. The vendor assures us that it has benefited from a full Audi service history and has recently received new shock absorbers and a new battery. It has also undergone the all-important checks for oil leakages, yielding satisfactory results, and the last four consecutive MOT tests were passed with no advisories. It presents very well throughout and comes with a detailed history file.
