2004 AUDI RS6

2004 AUDI RS6 AVANT (C5)

Daytona Grey Pearl | 93,000 Miles | £22,995

Barclay Heritage is delighted to offer this beautifully preserved example of the original Audi RS6 Avant, finished in the highly desirable Daytona Grey Pearl with just 93,000 miles from new.

An increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a completely unmodified example, retaining its original factory specification and accompanied by an extensive history file containing a substantial collection of maintenance invoices.

With many surviving examples having undergone performance modifications, suspension conversions or alterations from their original specification, finding a C5 RS6 that remains entirely standard and so well documented is becoming increasingly difficult.

Powered by the Cosworth-developed 4.2-litre twin-turbocharged V8 producing 450PS, the RS6 combines formidable performance with the refinement, practicality and understated elegance that have made the original model so highly regarded.

SPECIFICATION

This particular example boasts an exceptionally comprehensive factory specification, including:

• Original 19-inch alloy wheels
• Two-tone Recaro sports seats
• Factory brushed aluminium interior trim
• Heated front and rear seats
• Solar electric sunroof
• Double-glazed windows
• Bose premium sound system
• Satellite navigation
• Cruise control
• Rear window blinds
• Original luggage net and boot tray
• Factory Dynamic Ride Control (DRC) suspension

Of particular note is the retention of the original DRC suspension, which has been maintained rather than replaced with aftermarket coilovers. An important detail for those seeking an authentic, factory-correct example.

CONDITION & HISTORY

The condition of this RS6 is particularly noteworthy. The interior is exceptionally well preserved, with remarkably little evidence of wear to the seats, upholstery or interior trim. The exterior presents equally well, with the Daytona Grey Pearl paintwork beautifully complementing the discreet RS styling.

Accompanying the car is an extensive history file containing a substantial collection of invoices documenting maintenance and expenditure throughout its life, providing valuable reassurance regarding its upkeep.

The car has recently passed its MOT without advisories and has subsequently covered over 200 miles of road testing. It performs exceptionally well, with effortless power delivery from the twin-turbocharged V8 and a smooth, responsive Tiptronic transmission.

With its original, unmodified specification, extensive supporting history and exceptionally well-preserved interior, this is a particularly compelling example of Audi’s first-generation RS6.
