In the market for a fast estate, and have come down to an early 2000's RS6 or a 2005 545.

Don't do a lot of miles so economy and mileage aren't too much of a problem, but how leggy is too much to be a reliable option?

RS6 has much more power and 4 wheel drive, but the BMW looks a nicer place to sit.

Any ideas? Other option is a 159 3.2v6...

I'd go for the 545, the running costs of the C6 RS6 can be ruinous, two good friends in well paid jobs have had one and they have literally spent thousands on theirs just keeping them in top condition

545 will be like running a fiesta in comparison

159 is a good shout too
