It's been a long time coming but I have finally bought a new daily driver. My BMW X3 M40i has now been sold and this car replaces it.
It took me much longer to decide on a new daily than I thought but I am really happy with my final choice.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 unexpected for sure. But very much welcome. Great spec. Likely a great car. Infinitely more exciting than the X3. Congrats, Sam 👌🏻
I’m super happy!
You sound so "COOL" saying congrats!!! you sound like a very hip guy to do say "give me a Shout out" still sounds very stupid saying congratulations !!!!! your well Cool
@@seenthroughglass Great car mate and the New Forest is a fantastic place to be, little villages with great pubs and brilliant scenery. What more could you ask for?
Congratulations what a beautiful spec and a fantastic replacement.
Thanks. Really happy
@@seenthroughglass you should see if you can do the calipers in matte titanium. Beautiful car Sam!!
@@seenthroughglass Sam I would advise not touching the car at all as will make it tough to sell or trade in when you decide to eventually.I am sure Tony would advise you the same.
@@SCYorks anything he modifies will be reverted to stock for sale. And he will modify it trust me
This looks like the spec Matt had on CarWow, mega spec! Enjoy! Also loving that green is coming back, it looks so good. Love me some Audi RS. I’d love to see a matte titanium change to the black pack, think it would sit with the green so nicely
Such a vibe. I think automotive enthusiasts love a green over tan spec but most of the motoring public couldn't care less which means in the grand scheme of things it's a very special car. Congratulations; it's a nice reward for all the great content you put out!
Nailed it Sam, what a spec! Congrats! I personally like the red brake callipers, but if your gonna repaint them, why not consider gold? Might go nice with the tan interior…
☝️ this
Absolutely not
Yeah and the dark green would look beautiful
Why not a dark green ?
Mr Jww's old spec.
Yes, change the black bits back to silver. That would suit this spec very well! And the brakes in another colour too!
Blacked out badges are the worst - about the most uninspiring modification people do to their cars
Agree
Instead of silver, bronze would be a better option with this colour combination.
mate, the shot from 12:35 of you just sitting there on the passenger seat. So simple, but this car is so extremely photogenic I could just look at that for hours! Congrats
Well damn. Wasn’t expecting that! What a choice (and that’s coming from a previous X3 owner) 👏 Probably the best specced Audi out there! I’ve always been disappointed by the lack of choice you get with Audi interiors but this is a step in the right direction so nice to see a difference 👌
Probably one of the best specs going - can’t beat Dark Green and Tan interior! 👌🏽Congratulations Sam!
Yep, a vivid darker blue and tan interior is a beautiful combo too
Looks a lot like Mat Watsons RS6 when he had one as a daily, great spec.
Yess. Just what I thought
Yes, tempted to go back and look at carwow Mat´s plate nr :P
@@NikesZ28isn’t is so that in the uk the number plates are connected to the owner and not to the car?
@@RickertA no they are connected to both.
Not Matt’s car but featured in Archie Hamilton’s video I believe ! ;)
Looks awesome Sam, congrats! As far as the black optics pack goes, I too am more a fan of the aluminum optics look (though the black does look great) The trademark silver mirror caps would look great on there! As for the calipers, if you change the color I'd suggest yellow, that always looks so good with a green car
Very excited for you and for more videos! One of the best cars of the modern era, and I’m glad we’ll be getting an inside view of what it’s really like beyond a review.
I know the reviews can’t be that off BUT getting that daily experience of driving it will be a lot of fun to see! Cheers from the US
Congratulations mate! The exact same colour I had on my F80. Such a beauty!!
James Kingston, the legend!
When you said you've got an RS6 on the podcast, I thought it would be the previous gen. I did not expect this! Congrats! Awesome spec
Edit: Please change the badges back to silver, the black doesn't really work
Agreed! The badges would pop in silver!
I love the fact that you will give was a sense of history with this cars.
Whit other car youtubers the life spam of the new cars videos pretty much end there. So its really hard to develop connection and excitement
The difference with this channel is that Sam actually owns this car. He hasn't shown up to a dealer with a camera and titled his car 'Is this my new daily' or 'Purchasing a new Audi?'. He actually is driving this for real. Love this channel, love the honesty of it, big up Sam.
What a fantastic looking car Sam! I've been watching since your TTS days and it's been amazing seeing how your channel has progressed and it's honestly inspirational seeing your hard work paying off. Glad to see you're reaping the rewards. To address what you said on BTG about feeling like you need to justify purchasing an expensive car, there's no justification needed. Hard, smart and creative work means people like me can enjoy the stunning content you put out every week and allows you to afford the cars you own. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing what you get up to with the RS6!
When the first shot of the tan interior came on I freaked out. That's such a gorgeous car. Been proper excited to see it for ages (especially after dropping the teaser photo on Patreon). Congrats Sam. Awesome choice
Congrats Sam, loved the spec when I saw the car a few weeks back on Archie's channel. Glad its gone to a good home.
Sam, I am so freakin' happy. So freakin' happy for you. I mean it's like I bought a new daily. It's amazing to see someone so deserving climb up the ladder, and what a car. The spec is spot-on. Congratufreakin'lations
That’s bonkers!!! And what a spec!! Congrats on this amazing car! Just the thought you’re driving this on a daily basis has to be incredible!!
Absolutely love the new ride and I’m excited to see so much more content with it. Congrats sir.
Great to see you so happy Sam! Enjoy the new motor - it looks fantastic. A real stunner and a very special vehicle.
Mad respect for the videography in this video! Best in all of youtube- land, proper high quality.. Congratulation on a very beautiful car. Lj
I remember seeing this exact car on Archie’s channel and thinking what a perfect spec. Turns out someone’s actually bought it! Great car Sam!
Congratulations Sam, truly an awesome daily drivers car, loved the spec. A dream combination of power, usability and just pure fun. 😊👏🏻 Can't wait for more adventures with the RS6.
Brilliant and congratulations Sam - really look forward to the content with this uber daily! It will be great to have an honest, professional automotive journalist and YT'ber as yourself not despatch with the RS6 after 5 minutes! Have fun and stay safe!
That spec is perfect. My favorite green over tan, thank you for that. Congratulations on the new daily. I can't decide about the trim color. It looks fabulous as is and I always hate taking apart a new car for any reason, never seems to go back the same way. I'd leave it for a year see if it really resonates with you. Or go on to a configurator and play with the A6 wagon and see if the bright pack makes a difference. If anything I do like brake calipers that disappear and I think the Audi badges on the front and rear should stand out more maybe a matte nickel finish? Have fun.
I also ended up with an RS car haha. I wanted a Macan SUV but I found a good deal on an 2020 RS3 on Auto Trader so I said: why not! Congrats dude enjoy the RS6!
Beautiful car, and great spec. I like the red on the calipers myself, but I do prefer silver stuff rather than black pack kit for badges etc.
Although it's a lot of cash to spend on a daily, it's the total cost of ownership that matters in the end, so it'll be interesting to see how that turns out when it eventually leaves. I'm guessing residuals on them will be strong for a good while yet.
We'll find out in about 6 months time. I can see this going the same way as the 540C.
Sam...I was really worried thinking that you were going to choose a small SUV with a turbo or some such meh-mobile...this is the daily driver I was hoping for, but didn't expect...it's so sexy, yet practical..AND THE SPEC!...happy you chose this great daily...happy for you, for us, for humanity.
Congratulations on the car! Saw it on your Instagram and thought “wow, that’s close to perfect”. Close, because I’d definitely change the calipers to silver and get rid of the black trim (and tints while you’re at it). Good to hear you’re considering some mods!
Beautiful car - very well deserved with all the hard work you put into the channel and the podcast. Can’t wait for the upcoming content with this beast.
PS I would go matte titanium calipers and a silver badge to make it 👌🏻
Just want to congratulate you. Owning your dream car in the 360, getting married and and buying a RS6, it must have been a good year. Enjoy it man!
Ah yes great choice! I recall Goodwood Green as first appearing on the original RS4. Looks great with that lighter coloured seating. The Hancook tyres, I believe, are part of Audi's original fitment appearing on many Audi models. Enjoyed seeing this car when it appeared on Archie Hamilton's showroom visit video to Baytree. Pleased that you have it and looking forward to some great videos with it. Wishing you many miles of happy motoring. Really pleased with your choice. Thank you.
I’m here after catching up with the podcast, what a shout! Beautiful car, beautiful spec and a great reveal video!
Can't believe you found a Green with TAN interior RS6 - it's almost as if Sam spec'd it himself!
Haha. I know right! It was meant to be
Huge classy spec! Congratulations!
Not a huge Audi-guy, but gotta love this one. Perfect spec. That color is gorgeous. Interior and wheels are top notch, as well. Enjoy your new ride mate!
Glad you got to this first before any other RUclipsrs. Great spec.
Congratulations on wagon.
Is that the one that was on Archie's video, a few weeks ago?
Huge congrats! Excited to see the content you make with this beast
@@gabrielgabes5074 we've all had our demons leave him alone
@@adamski5977 ?
Most toxic guy in car community.
@@SZ-ZS- why ?
@@trooper1972 he harassed a family (on video), harassed a dozen or so RUclipsrs (all on video again) and was driven away by police on multiple occasions. And this went on for months at a time
I'm so happy for you Sam. When I first saw this new RS6 I was in love. The green wouldn't be my first choice, but after seeing it with the tan it is great. And it looks like a slight homage to the old VW Montana Green on the MK2 jetta and gti, one of my favorite colors on a car.
So congrats and I very much look forward to seeing what you and this beauty have in store for us.
Awesome new car. The exterior colour and interior are perfect. Not a fan of touch screen for HVAC that is something that should always remain physical buttons and knobs. Hopefully the steering wheel is also physical controls. Not really fused over the brake calipers or the black out package, it would be nice to see what you do with that. Looking forward to more videos with this car. Keep up the good work.
Congrats, tony was right it's a fantastic spec
Yes its sick. Vorsprung also means it has all the optional extras. Fully loaded even the carbon twirl inlays.
That colour combo😍
Congratulations man, I also just picked up a 2022 rs5 coupe 2 weeks ago to be a daily. Couldn’t be happier 👍🏼
Huge congrats to you Sam. Well deserved mate . Long term viewer of the channel.. didn’t see that one coming at all!
So cool to see this on Archie and TGEs channel and then seeing u buy it! Awesome, keep it in the family. We need content of yours and archies rs6’s together !!
Couldn’t wait to see after listening to the podcast
Thanks for watching both channels!
Huge congratulations Sam!!!!!
I actually don't think you should remove the black pack, because it just works with this paint tbh
Congratulations! Great to see you so happy with it and what makes it different is that you actually wanted this car/ spec and it wasn't just 'bought for you tube'. Definitely needed the explanation as X3>RS6 is quite the jump XD Enjoy! Looking forward to the content.
I can't lie, that Colour combination is incredible, love how happy Sam looks with it, all though I'm a little disappointed because I'd expect Sam to buy something weird and quirky he's gone for the most popular car, but fair enough it's an incredible looking car, Congrats! 🙌
WHAT A COLOUR COMBO 👀
Totally agree with Silver callipers, silver Audi rings and Silver door mirrors. Exceptional choice on exterior and interior colours, such a beautiful combination. Stunning!
Congrats on the new daily! Incredible spec, was about to comment the same thing about the brake callipers, black would look killer!
Congrats Sam! What a weapon of car the rs6 is! A true marvel of German engineering. Enjoy it. A fantastic daily, and a great colour combo
Thanks buddy
Oh my gosh, that is one of my dream cars! The colour is incredible! What a spec and congratulations!!!!!
Thanks mate
@@seenthroughglass omg I wasn't expecting a reply!
@@seenthroughglass I have been watching since the F-type days and the big road trip to Monaco with shmee and the blue crew so this has made my day :)
Amazing spec, was pretty surprised when you gave the exclusive on the podcast but now I can see why you went for it!!
Sam,you are by far the best car review person out there,you nail every video and then go and buy a rs6 out of the blue !
There is a lot of RUclipsrs who can learn a lot from you.
Is this too keen 😁
Never! Welcome
Some People will be kicking themselves in few weeks if they miss opportunity to buy and invest in Crypto.
*INVEST IN BITCOIN*
I got 80% of my total portfolio in Crypto and it has been great returns
Been looking to invest part of my savings in the the crypto market just don’t know how to get started. Not about to take a loss on my savings haha
Stock are good but Crypto is better
I wanted to trade trade Crypto but got confused by the fluctuations in price
Congratulations on your new car, Sam! Love the spec and totally agree with you on the brake calipers. I’d probably paint them in black if I was you, but please leave the other black trim as is.
Keep it up my brother! Congratulations! very tasteful spec, as well as the video!
So happy you found a car! I also love that car and hope to see more of it on your channel. Congratulations Sam!
Congrats mate ! I agree, black calipers, titanium pack ( a touch darker than the oem aluminium pack) and it's perfect !
Congratulations Sam!! - Beautiful spec (inside and out). Great for cruising and plenty of power for fun 😎
Congrats, Sam. Great Spec. VW group has some very addictive products. Audi RS products are awesome! Please do a video showing the different drive modes in the RS6. Maybe you should consider yellow for the brake calipers. Yellow and green stand out, you have a yellow plate on the car and its in the color wheel of that interior.
Probably the best spec I've seen of that car. Looks amazing, big congratulations Sam!
Lovely looking motor, congratulations!
Id be trying to colour match the calipers to the paint, or the wheel colour.
WOW, what a supprise! Wishing you many happy miles in the new beater!
Well done Sam, great spec. Look forward to watching Euro road trips in the future in the RS6.
Absolutely blown away by it all! Amazingly done Sam! You outdone yourself! LOVE the filming n editing! That drive off spinning was the cherry haha
And the car… My God Sam! The spec is almost perfect! I support all those details you mentioned, more classy spec for sure!
And yes… 3 V8’s, the 3 variants of v8! NA, turbo and supercharged! So cool!
Cant wait for more
Delighted for you, stunning car. The interior is insane. Enjoy it, congratulations!
Very nicely done Sam. I also think matte aluminium accents in the front will match the wheels as the car has no other silver elements around it. The green and tan is perfection 🎉
Congratulations & super excited for all the videos!! Been waiting for this to come to the channel.
Smiling the whole time watching. Congrats Sam. Love the spec! I agree also about the matt silver/grey badges and calipers as it would be a bit more "you" - the unpretentious-posh-man-of-the-people. Super cool man.
Paint the brake calipers black and you have a keeper right there 😍 Amazing car Sam, totally deserved. That’s my dream daily so make sure there’s plenty of content 🙏🏻
Beauty. But agree, all the gloss black front fascia and rear diffuser parts need to go back to silver so they stand out :)
Congrats amazing spec car, as with all I’m well jealous.
Was this on Archie’s channel when JE collected his Cayenne turbo coupe ?
Beautiful spec, and I agree that the calipers will look better in a different color. Congrats
really didnt expect that, but what a beautiful and well-deserved car! and together with a bit of watch content a great way to enjoy the sunday!
Absolute beast of a car, everything you could ever need in a daily or a weekend weapon, RS product gets overlooked but is so good at doing everything. Congrats Sam 👏 👏 👏
This is the best! Perfect spec and ultimate daily for sure, looking forward to a real life review from you after 6 months 👊🏻 Well done Sam!
When you said that the spec of the car was the special thing about it in your podcast, I knew it was going to be a green over tan car! That spec is amazing! Also, I'd go for black callipers, I think they'd look best.
Wow, nice rare find there Sam, looking forward to seeing some great RS6 content.
I hope Vicki was sitting down when you told her how much it was.
What a spec... I wouldn't touch the blacked out grille etc, apart from maybe getting chrome audi badges. Think that would set the car off nicely with the wheels. Black calipers or a different colour on the brakes maybe better, have you considered a shade of yellow? Might sound mad but would kind of go with the interior and look good with the green. Anyway, huge congrats and looking forwards to the videos this year!
Congrats Sam! So happy for you, what a spec!
Love the car Sam I don’t think anyone is disappointed. One adventure that is car was made for would be Scandinavia in winter with silver steel wheels, winter tires and a Thule roof box 👍 maybe make a snowboarding trip there’s some pretty amazing parks up there. Enjoy the car I’m officially jealous my daily is a white a3 🤣 but we’re both part of Audi crew!
Wauw, amazing choice for a daily sam , and as you said , for a couple of 100 quid , not taking this over an x3m40i would be foolish 🙃
I'd keep the black bits , it really fits the car..
But i would change the calipers to a deep bronze colour... that would be amazing against the green and tan !
Amazing buy man, i'm so happy that you got to this level, been following you from day 1 , and i only wish you the best...
So first of all, be safe and enjoy the car as it was intended for !
All the best mate 👍👍👍
Congrats! If you decide to paint the brake calipers you need to colour match them Goodwood Green!
All these videos from my favorite England boys makes me happy. Another Banger Sam. I really do like the presence of this RS6
Tq tq tq tq tq for getting an rs6 sam!! It is no doubt my favourite car of the moment (both c7 and c8). Awesome spec too, love that green and tan combo. And yes, pls do make those parts matte aluminium, including the wing mirrors, they are afterall the rs signature. Im so glad that my favourite car youtuber got my favourite car, so definitely im gonna see lots more contents on this. But pls sam, dont put some stupid aftermarket wheels on it!
Love it! And really, not TOO unexpected. I had a feeling a wagon was in your future knowing how you coveted the space of the SUV but not necessarily the profile, when it came to a daily. This really ticks the “wow! Is that my car?!” Box that the BMW never really did. We’ll done, my friend!
Congratulations, hope you've got deep pockets to run the thing the way it's going
I thought this was the car from that other guys video. It is. Well done mate absolutely beautiful. Congrats
Wow what a spec!! Big congrats Sam, you've worked hard and earned it!
Amazing. Congrats.
And the shots in this video. WOW
So glad you went with this over another SUV. Congrats!
Sam…. Congratulations man, great choice. I remember you where at a car place and you saw this. Even though you were there to review another car, you kept coming back to this one 😁 Hope you have many many kms / miles of driving fun !! Perfect daily.
