2010 Audi RS6 Saloon
Chassis Number: TBA
Registration Number: OU59 ZBG
Recorded Mileage: 72,000
The Audi RS6 with its V10 engine is a ludicrously quick family car that can still deliver supercar scaring performance more than a decade after its release.
Audi's introduction of the C6 RS6 must have seemed like the equivalent of bringing a machine gun to a knife fight, instantly relegating BMW's screaming naturally aspirated 5.0-litre V10 and Mercedes' big capacity 6.2-litre V8 into runner up positions. This was thanks to a stonking 572bhp twin-turbo 5.0-litre V10 lurking under its aluminium bonnet.
Equipped with Audi's trademark all-wheel-drive system, the RS6 not only outgunned its rivals but could actually put all that power to good use in less than ideal conditions. It may have lacked the finesse of its Bavarian counterpart, but it was the faster car in real-world conditions and the estate body style was enough to make it the default family-friendly supercar choice for many. A saloon variant was introduced soon afterwards, and this autobahn monster was produced for three years before someone realised that having a twin-turbo 5.0-litre V10 in a family car was more than just a little ludicrous.
It may have been more powerful than contemporary Porsches and Ferraris but the RS6 has proven to be reliable too, although running costs can still be high thanks to heavy fuel consumption and the need to replace the tyres and brakes regularly. The optional carbon ceramic brakes last longer but are even pricier to replace. Just think of it all as an entertainment expense and enjoy the searing performance on offer.
The C7 replacement went the downsizing route with its 4.0-litre V8, and while it was more than up to the job, this meant that the more powerful and unhinged V10 variant was relegated to the job of reminding us what happened when the German horsepower race got out of hand.
This rare Audi RS6 Saloon was delivered new in 2010, finished in metallic black with a full cream leather interior. The RS has covered 72,000 miles from new, with Full Service History, and has just benefited from a recent full service. Additionally all four wheels have recently been refurbished, and new tyres fitted.
As you would expect the Audi is very well specified from new, with a Bose speaker system, dual zone climate control, electric memory front seats, heated front (and rear) seats, automatic lights and wipers, automatic high beam assist, electric folding door mirrors, keyless entry and start, Bluetooth phone connection, DAB radio, TV and Audi Music interface, also carbon fibre inlays and engine cover.
Supplied with a full book pack and both keys, this is a hugely capable super saloon fitted with a monstrous twin-turbocharged V10, the likes of which we are never likely to see again.
Once paid for, lots can be collected from Dore and Rees by appointment. We can recommend shippers to assist with the collection and transport of lots to you.
