We think, to ourselves, Yeah id like to buy one of them...We go to Audi UK and configure the car and we get black interior with no options. We don't get "other" stuff, we just get less stuff. Which makes NO sense, the car is built in Germany anyway, so what difference would it make to them? NONE. Right now, cant even order an RS3.

    I did a 2400mile euro trip to Swiss alps in late September. In my c63 estate with a roof box. Thule said do not exceed 130kph but I went 210kph and chickened out lol.
    My Thule vector box actually is really good with the aerobars, not much noise until 75mph, I would not notice it when I drive under 70mph.
    It was so much fun to drive the Furka pass and Susten pass, I would go back in summer days again.

Use of the paper map is quite Metcalfe-esque, very illustrative all the same in painting a picture of the journey. By coincidence I also spotted an Isle of Man Green M3 Touring in the much less snowy location of the A3. Looked to be a BMW UK car. Looked great. Lovely colour. Thank you.

    I’ve a bog standard A6. Bought a box and bars to travel to the UK from Ireland last summer. Did a trial fit and drive and noticed the noise wasn’t comfortable at all. Saw a few videos online and tried them out to see about reducing the noise. 1: Get some cord and wrap it around the front bar. It will disrupt the air. 2: I went to a DIY place and got some pipe insulation large enough to wedge between the roof of the car and the box. Enough for the width of the bars. Kept in place with zip ties. Didn’t completely cut out the noise but really did reduce it. Wasn’t a problem doing 70mph on motorways either. Still got 43mpg for the trip over and back. 2011 A6 C7 2.0TDI.

      M5C is a bit faster and rides a little more rough compared to the RS6. The engine and exhaust noise emitted through the stereo is much more natural sounding in the RS6.
      I think the M5C sits a little bit lower and don’t think it would be as good in snow.
