2020 AUDI (C8) RS6 AVANT - CARBON BLACK

KEY FACTS

• An excellent example of the contemporary ‘super estate’, boasting a particularly high factory specification.
• Under the bonnet is the mighty twin-turbocharged four-litre V8, which produces 592bhp and 590lb-ft of torque, and drives all four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle shift.
• As a result, this remarkable estate car can complete the sprint from 0-62mph in only 3.6 seconds.
• First registered in September 2020, this RS6 has covered only 7,469 miles to date, and is offered for sale by its first and only private keeper.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• Introduced in 2020, the C8-generation RS6 was the first car in the model’s history to feature a 48-volt mild hybrid system. It also has the ‘cylinder on demand’ system for improved fuel economy.
• Standard equipment includes matrix LED headlights, two MMI touchscreens, heated and ventilated leather sport seats, rear-wheel steering, and both a Torsen centre differential and a Sport rear differential.
• Finished in the appealing hue of Navarra Blue with black leather upholstery, this Carbon Black edition Avant also features a carbon-fibre front lip spoiler, rear diffuser trim and side skirts, along with gloss black badging and black window trims and a set of 22-inch alloy wheels.
• Additional equipment includes sports suspension with dynamic ride control, the RS sports exhaust system, a panoramic glass sunroof, an increased top speed of 174mph, rear side airbags, red brake callipers and the Tour Pack; which comprises a number of driver-assistance systems including adaptive cruise assist, high-beam assist and traffic sign recognition..
• The car will be accompanied by all of its original handbooks and its two keys.
• The cherished registration ‘RS64 DOG’ is NOT included in the sale. It will be switched back to an age-related registration.

CONDITION

• No bodywork damage.
• As is to be expected given the car’s age and limited mileage, the Navarra Blue paintwork and exterior trim are in superb condition.
• Inside, the cabin presents equally well, with the only signs of the car’s use being some very faint marks on the lower sections of the front door cards and plastic sill covers, and the slightest creases on the driver’s seat’s outer bolster.
• There are no known electrical or mechanical faults with the vehicle.
• Its first MOT test is not due until 29 September 2023.

SERVICE HISTORY

• This RS6 Avant has just received its first annual service, which comprised an oil change and a general inspection. The technician noted that all the brakes and pads have plenty of life left, and that the minimum tyre tread depth was 4.7mm.

SUMMARY

This 2020 Audi RS6 Avant is an impressively potent, practical and refined modern ‘super estate’. The C8-generation model is a truly thrilling high-performance wagon, and this well-specified example in as-new condition will make a wonderful daily driver or long-distance tourer for its next owner.
