Awesome car. Bedding in the brakes gently. Lovely sound, great presence on the road, very responsive when set up in dynamic, comfy in comfort !

Stop it. Just, please, stop it. I'm really happy with my S4, honestly and I do NOT want to change. Oh, no. (Repeats...)

(superlightr - that looks stunning. Have fun with it!)

Also that car's a highly spec'd motor. Prices are now aligning based on the discounts available.

Hard to spend £60-65k on a used car even with some options when a brand new one can be bought with next to know lead time for £66k.
This is exactly what I tried to explain to Birmingham Audi, they have a lovely Misano red one (2013) for 59.995 with 18k on the clock, ok it had a little bit of spec on it (and a tow bar they didn't know aboutrolleyes) a similar spec one through car wow was 10K more but 3 years newer (ie brand new), even the New deal they offered "claimed" not to be able to offer any discounts and even though they were very keen about my A6 trade in still offered me a laughable trade in. To be fair they did come across genuinely keen to deal with RS products but the deals were a bit poo...

That's crap. Dealers are giving £16k on the RS6 (this include the finance support which of course you can pay off as soon as you take delivery). In the same situation i'd take the brand new car every day as these 2yr old examples are going to take a bath very very soon with their worth.

To get 16k you have to be ordering a very high specced one. 12k more typical on "sensible" spec (assuming anything about the RS6 is sensible. I reckon a well specced new car is likely to be around the £75k mark after discounts and finance support. Depends how many boxes you tick smile

Where the 2yr old examples go, your brand new risen will follow in 2yrs (ref taking a bath). Surely...

My bad, i meant 15-16% off list for a standard car not £15-16k.

I meant that's crap service from a dealer, not what the post said is crap.

Absolutely the new cars being registered today will fall at similar rates, but this will then make the current used ones (12-24mths old) less desirable so £-£ they'd drop a little more now so the gap between used & new is more appropriate as a £5k difference is going to send most down the route of a new car, unless of course the £60-65k used example was in fact £100k when new but that's currently not the case.

Wise move re brakes. Some advocate rapid bedding in procedure which is good for track / race cars but a great way to fook an RS6's wink

Easy does it definitely best however great the temptation. I know they don't recommend it but I'd also maybe change the engine oil after couple thousand miles.

First RS6 (2014) I've seen that has hit the £55k mark. Nearest rivals are at 59.9k. Suggests a bit of a drop soon do we think? It seems to be good spec but mileage is 27k, not the end of the world tho.

Cheapest car is listed at £56k for a 2013 car?
The 2014 car with 27k miles on it is listed at £59k, may still be a 63 reg car, has the 20" wheels too.

If you pop onto autotrader they've dropped the same car to £54.9k with the 21". You are right it is a 2013 though. There are a few more 2013 at the 56k - 59k ish mark with good kit and 21". You then have a load of 2014 plates at £59.x with 21". What's my point? I guess it's do we think the 2014 plates are about to drop 3-5k k in the immediate future, say March when the new plate is out?

I ask as I am interested and done mind a car with 25k on the clock.
