I'm looking to spec a new RS6 and thinking of choosing ascari blue. It wasn't a first choice as I had intentions of going for sepang or nogaro. But having seen a sold ascari, I actually thought it looked understated but classy. .. I'd appreciate any feed back as Ive only got over a week to make my mind up.

I think it looks ok but its a bit of a 50/50 colour with people. ...it looks like primer etc and may go out of fashion in 2-3yrs?
I've had a Range Rover SVR in estoril blue for a couple of years and want something special but not in your face ..maybe its because its a RR and sings 'flash'

I agree with Sepang being popular .. I'm just going to have to keep scrolling on google for blues. Voodoo, Riviera etc etc

..thanks, that has been one of my worries. It looks good in the showroom, but once driven and not polished it would look dull and a little disappointing considering all the other colour options available.
On a different thought, what about Mocha Latte??

...dam, there goes my coffee fix this morning.
I'll best get back to the dealer and tell him this isn't going to be easy for him lol find a list of colours which will add another 6 wks to the build.

£305 fully comp suggests, despite the Internet, you are very unlikely to be bothered by thieves.
Cheapest car I have insured for some time. On another thread a guy just got a £224 refund for upgrading from RS4 to RS6.
Do it. Fab car.

PS unless you live in or near Birmingham frown
LOL I'm further south so hopefully will be ok. I've made my mind up anyway and probably going for the Sepang
