I am thinking about a replacement for my E92 M3. I need a bit more space for the kids and a dog so thinking an RS6 Avant or one of the big engined 4x4. Has anyone made such a move and can offer advice on the day to day living. I have found one locally for a test drive but I have found Audi dealers to be less than enthusiastic when it comes to test drives and it is a shed load of money to spend based on a 30 min pootle around town!

Have you tried booking the test drive online? I found the dealer was very helpful once prodded by Audi UK.
The car is a real grower. I first tried it over a year ago and I have to admit it left me a bit cold on the test drive. It felt big, heavy and over insulated when compared to my RS4.
However, like you I needed the space so forced myself to try it again.
Needless to say, I bought one.
Have a look on rs246 for other owners' comments. Most are very positive.
The power is addictive. The build quality is top notch and now they've been around a couple of years, I'd say they're almost a bargain.
