    The C6 platform was so special. It's my favorite A6 generation to this day and we had a very special S6 and RS6 models that featured V10s

      Wow, You sound just like me ! Bought one, in the ONLY colour to have, in 2018. Brace yourself if you get an oil leak. Engine out to fix, mostly. Thats £3500 in labour. Spent £10,000 on mine last year……

    Who thought it was a good idea to put Hammond on a 570 bhp car on a hilly road?.. Oh add some snow to the mixture too

    Didn't do much skiing. Of course if you glide from the top of the mountain you'd make it there first. 🤣🤣

    The station wagon/estate car that Audi USA refuses to sell. Mercedes-Benz and Mercedes-AMG will happily sell Americans the E 400 4MATIC AND the E 63 S 4MATIC+ to anyone around the world including the USA 🇺🇸. God bless you Daimler-Benz for continuing to offer the E-Class in a station wagon form for us wealthy Americans and the rest of the world. This is why I will always view Daimler-Benz vehicles above the other automakers from Germany 🇩🇪. Unfortunately GM tried and didn’t succeed with the Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon even though they had a supercharged 556 horsepower V-8 engine under the hood/bonnet of the Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon.
