Bought new nearly two years ago and with the new S6 being announced as a deisel she'll now be staying with me for many years to come. The best daily I've owned.

I understand the S6 and RS6 will be V6's, which is part of the reason I bought a C7 S6 Avant. No doubt the new engine will be at least as powerful as the C7, but the way a V8 and V6 deliver power is entirely different. My S6 was bought as a daily driver and I like the understated "lazy" power...

Daily - S6 Avant Weekend/Summer - SL400 (I now realise I should have bought the Sl500 though). Something special - Ferrari FF First two I've managed so far. Third one I'm actively looking, maybe next year.

I have no idea what it will be running at 220 kph as I like to keep my licence!

Bear in mind our S6 has COD. So when cruising if you did a full tank on motorway only then 600km is quite feasible from a 75 litre tank. Our 577km tank included 2 hours stuck in traffic. At 140km/h the engine is running at about 2300rpm.

The S6 is perfect for long distance motorway driving, that's where it excels, if you can live with the fuel consumption. Is it better than a BiTDI? That's your call. You'll get more range from the diesel. I wouldn't want a loud exhaust on a car I was doing a lot of motorway miles in, after the...

Ceramics not an option in the UK. I went with the standard 19" wheels for comfort alone, but I also went with comfort seats also. The S6 is everything the RS6 isn't. I explained on the Mercedes forum I'm a member of if you owned an AMG and swapped to an S6 you'd be disappointed. The S6 is quiet...

The article is referring to the upcoming A6/S6/RS6 C8 replacements. There will no longer be any V8's Even the RS6 will be a V6. Quote:- "The more potent RS6 which should follow around 12 months after the regular A6 arrives, will use the new but smaller capacity 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6."

All V6's from now on, which is the future I guess, smaller capacity, more turbos, electric motors and better economy. I imagine performance won't ultimately suffer either. However, I bought the current outgoing S6 purely because it's a V8 and will most likely be the last of it's kind. There's...

Also take a look at BBS Ci-R if you want something aftermarket. I'm quite keen on the satin platinum and might get a set to run as summer wheels.

Standard S6 wheels 19"

At 450hp the S6 is underrated. In so much as they are often found to be running 480hp to 500hp from factory. So few of these sell in the UK as people who want a very fast large engined Audi automatically go for the RS6 (RS6 outsell the S6 by about 10 to 1 in the UK). Take a look at the...

The future's bright, the future's orange:- Fed up with dull colours I went for something bright this time.

I'll worry about that when I've got somewhere to keep it. Preferably blue tdf with sabbia if I manage to find one.

I'm very keen on a Ferrari FF and I'm watching the market. I need a house move before I can even contemplate one, it would have to be garaged.

No, I can understand why others would but this is my comfortable daily driver and I like it just as it is. I would have bought the RS6 if that's what I was looking for. I have another car for days I want a blast and get the wind in my hair and as soon as we move house (proving very difficult...

No they are more muted, it's a pleasant burble rather than a shouty nascar V8. Dynamic mode opens it a little but not a huge amount. I think it suits the sleeper nature of the car but there are a lot of systems available for those who want them - mostly developed in the US where Audi don't...

Audi rate them at about 450hp. If you believe the American magazines it appears closer to 480hp. However I think the double clutch transmission generates much less transmission loss and it performs a little better than expected when compared with its more powerful brothers with torque converter...

McLaren Volcano Orange was one of the colour options I looked at but it was triple layer which Audi won't do.

Even Audi didn't have many available last year when were considering ordering one. It took them three weeks to find one to test drive and only saloons were available. When I came to order it the dealer said she couldn't remember the last one of these they sold. If the stats on How Many left are...
