30,000 miles down, 470,000 to go before it's time for anything else 😀
Requirements for a MrJWW video: "Gear Box Snob" (8:00) "10/10ths" (8:14) "... such a fantastic stance to it." (11:17) and, of course, the ol' 'Smiles Per Gallon' sweatshirt! Color me pleased, James... all of my particular boxes have been ticked, by this video. Cheers, mate!
Pleasure to be of service sir!
Brilliant!
Go to Audi, tell them what you told us, hybrid, V8 Twin turbo, 4 WD, PDK, more pops and bangs, and request 0.001% from each car sold. Because you described the ultimate car.
Why would they sell a Panamera Turbo s-e hybrid with a different badge? Tbh the normal Turbo is a better deal because of the weight difference.
Hope this is a joke, ever heard of the Panamera ST?
Honestly,
A Lusso would be INSANE. It's basically a V12 Shooting Brake which is my DREAM, and I imagine it would be quite enjoyable for you as well. However, you've done 30K miles on the RS6, and I can't imagine you'd want to throw 30K miles on a Lusso that quickly. Additionally, like you said, you need something to be very practical. Personally, I would go with the Panamera Sport Turismo, and would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see it on the channel.
Please let us know soon
190cm skis don't properly fit in a Lusso. What a shame.
Panamera Sport Turismo Turbo S E Hybrid would be insane
Good point lad
@@111tombomb I absolutely love the aesthetics of it. I think it's there best Panamera Porsches has evde msde
Your point is valid, but I'd be interested to see the running costs and reliability of a V12 Ferrari racking up the miles.
We expect a Porsche and Audi to be reliable motoring.
I would wait for the new RS6 to be announced before choosing what to get next. I have a feeling the new one will be pretty great.
yeah same!!!
Even though all the main car youtubers have got some serious cars just now, i still think your just about winning with the TDF. That is going to be a well remembered car for the next 100 years!
Once Parker has the svj and schmee has the senna though there will be computing! Variety is going to be awesome!
@@wuzihuzi for sure the variety is cool. Although i dont really watch vehicle virgins tbf. For me the TDF still just about beats the Senna. Id like to see some more classics about on the channels though.
@@pauldavis3904 yeah I didn't like Parker at first but I think Mr Jew rubbed off him a little bit and your right the TDF is awesome and has that heritage essence
‘It pulls like a mule on crack!’ - James the man who often states he has no words to describe things.
Well, that was a beautifully crafted descriptive phrase!
👍🏽😂😂
Definitely get the new RS6 when it comes out
I wonder what its going to look like. I absolutely love the looks of the C7 gen, it looks just so brutal... but the new A6's looks I don't gel with. The single light bar at the back... I don't see how that's going to look aggressive enough.
I'm very upset that we don't get the Audi RS6 Wagon in the United States.
Michael Bacon why dont u get them?
thats silly why?
something to do with the performance and they rather have them buy american cars (thats what i read somewhere). quite a number of European & Japanese cars are banned. once they hit 25 yrs old can be imported
ahh ok 25yrs old thats alot though!
Skyliner r34 is on the list but what some people do is get a company in say japan to buy one, strip it. sent in it parts so the engine to american the shell to canada the gearbox somewhere else they arrive at what ever destination then get sent to where you actually want it. comes under building a kit car but the authorities dont like that. and have taken the parts and destroyed them.
Could wait for the next generation rs6
It will be crap.Look at the interior,the infotainment system is un-usable when you are driving.Touch-screens everywhere and it looks bad in my opinion.
@@Elias_g1 it wont be crap.
Hey guys, thanks as always for watching the video - there are some really big announcements coming soon so please be sure to subscribe so you don’t miss out - it’s a big one! On another note - the RS6 is not going yet, based on expected lead time of the new RS6 - I’d say around 12 months yet! So still plenty of RS6 to share 😃
How about an Alpina estate? Very rare and made for destroying miles.
Awesome, your content is just Fantastic! 😍🔥
I am also an owner of a Audi RS6 Performance and I really have to say it's still the best estate (Avant) available for me. Still looking fresh, still feels super fast and still is the benchmark for everything that's coming from other manufacturers/brands. And let's be honest, it took MB/AMG a while to bring out a car that's "better" (at least on paper) or as good as the RS6 is. And the RS6 is a product of 2012/2013.......
"An audible tone change of cog manoeuvres."
That's the most eloquent description of gear shifting I've ever heard.
When are you going for a bike ride with the Aston racing team? You could fit a few bikes in/on the RS6.
I would love to see your reaction on Abt‘s new RS6 Hybrid. Must be mindblowing... 👌
"pulls like a mule on crack" love it!
Derek Lau unfortunately the expression is kicks like a mule, pulls like a train, so he was mixing his metaphors! 🤔😜
Gary Lawton what’s unfortunate by it.
Having just driven a Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid for the past week, I can honestly say it is one of the best cars I've ever driven. I wouldn't consider anything else.
James you have to do a comparison between this and the new E63S Amg 4matic.
But.... if you want a practical car... did you consider the upcoming new Audi rs7, its a giant hatchback... with tonnes of space in the boot and in the rest of the car, and a monstrous engine. You must try that car when it comes out.
Btw your Rs6 its so beautiful.
Waiting for TDF content!!
MARTIN ORTIZ I'd honestly pay to watch JWW content about the new rs7
Well the rs7 is only 4 seats
MARTIN ORTIZ why RS7 when there is a RS6!! Of course a new one is coming it’s way.. supposedly with a hybrid power train with 700hp
Ravi and who really cares?
@@berniesutton7277 are you stupif were talking about practicality
The C7 RS6 is so popular on your channel as it's actually attainable for many of your viewers. Unlike much of the exotica that you own/drive.
I also fell under the spell, so went to buy a new one (after owning six Mercedes) but I guess I'm just getting old as I found it a bit too shouty and bit too compromised in ride quality for a true daily. So I bought the S6 Avant instead which is kind of like an RS6 "comfort".
The S6 does have a dual clutch gearbox unlike it's big brother, but I'd probably prefer the ZF 8 speed torque box if I'm completely honest. Whilst the dual clutch is undoubtedly fast when you're rolling and launching it often gets wrong footed at town speed and when manoeuvering.
There's always a compromise somewhere right?
We'll I'm only a little over a year into ownership of my S6 and the reality is it's the best car I've ever owned (as a daily with lots of performance) and it's unlikely to be replaced unless it starts going wrong. Even then I took the warranty extension from new to cover it for 5 years.
The other bonus? Audi will paint your car any colour you want for a reasonable amount of money (try asking Mercedes that!). So I currently own (at least at the time it was built) the only Audi S6 Avant in the world painted Orange Flame metallic (the Bentley colour).
Why change it James? It's only just run in at 30,000 miles.
I say have a chat with ABT 🤩
Get the new one when it’s released
Your car is perfect, perfect color, perfect interior etc hold on to it please
Thanks! It’s not going anywhere any time soon, probably another 8-12 months with the car
Nice video as always. I have had my RS6 (V8) nearly three years.I am also thinking about replacement, but I am just not seeing anything out there that gives me the practical buzz like the RS6. Family of four in a supercar?! Its had the Litchfield Stage 2 (730 BHP) for nearly two years. Serviced every 9000 miles. Drinks fuel like an alcoholic. Eats rubber. Still love it.
I'm gonna be buying my own in a year or so, depending on how I'll be doing financially, and honestly, I just don't see any good replacement for that car. I currently have a 2002 Opel Vectra B and I love my car(I know it's nothing compared to RS, but hey, it has sentimental worth to me) and I just don't see any good replacements for that car lol. I know how you feel about it so I'd suggest you to not replace it at all. It's a great family car and it's a beast.
What do you think of the alpina b5 Touring? Could also be an Option with 610hp
Malte HD now thats a proper MrJWW car.
When did the B5 get 630hp? Ok, it may have have a real world 630hp, but it is rated at 608hp.
Yes.
Yeah 4 doors are more practical but you'd still have the RR if you really need them, the Gtc4l price is madness but a V12 ferrari is always worth it.
I'd rather have the E63s over the sport turismo.
Just wait for the new RS6 which should be coming in few months and make your decision.
I LOVE THE RS6 !!! 😍😍😍 LOVE your channel. Hi from Tahiti !!!
This is one of my most favourite cars. It seems like nothing can quite compare. I just wish they were avaailable in the US. Please keep this car and feature it more.
I love this car, it’s my dream spec. Let’s hope Audi get the next one just as right and you keep an RS6 in the fleet. More videos featuring this pure beast is a must.
She is defo a keeper. I recon wait for the next gern RS6. It is a beast of a car, proper mans wagon! I am a Porsche fan and owner, but the Pan is still a bit souless compared to the RS6. The Lusso is just another Ferrari V12 which you already have. Just my opinion. Thanks for the content.
Absolutely love it. Always smile when I see an RS6. Ultimate all rounder.
Please Please Please make more videos with this car, its just a dream. Perhaps a roadtrip or comparing it with an E63s 4matic.
I love Kiniki, bought some for my girlfriend and she absolutely loves it
go for a Panamera Sport Turismo Turbo S E-Hybrid ... 705 PS will make you fly :-)
mr_kml_ 84 are u the real kml from insta?
The RS6 will always be the lonely king.
I just knew you was going to say gearbox!! And now that i have started to experiment deeper into gearboxes myself i definitely understand the importance of it! Keep up the great work, great success 👍
Another excellent and motivating video. I get the distinct impression that you don’t it for the recognition; nonetheless, THANK YOU for the heart you put into your channel. Cheers from the USA!
Hi James. You’ll most certainly want to wait for the Mercedes AMG GT73 sedan which will have 850bhp from a hybrid assisted 4.0 V8 biturbo. While I’m a huge fan of the Ferrari FF/ GTC-4 Lusso, it’s not quite as comfortable and practical as a super estate.
It is a very difficult car to replace. I wouldn't go for the Lusso even though it's amazing looking and sounding. You already have the TDF and have an 812 incoming. Sure, these cars are quite different but at the same time they are a bit alike, big V12 engined Italian GT cars with a similar sound and interior feel. But since you already have the Range Rover with the big booth, why don't you look into something like the new BMW 8 series or the Mercedes CLS AMG?
James - a gearbox snob? No way. Jokes aside, your channel is ace and the only vlogger I rate out there.
You deserve 1million subs.Kudos to the excellent work.
Practicality and sportiness combined together to create the ultimate but perfect ride experience wherever your senses and nerves take you. I'd put my money on the Aston Martin Rapide S since the company has planned on going public for the first time on the LSE.
Hand on heart. The RS6 is my favourite car from you’re amazing collection James. Against the grain of popularity from others I know. For me personally , it ticks every box twice over. Amazing machine 😍😍
You should check out the E63S wagon. Love your vids, I'm a gearbox fanatic like you are.
This is one of my favourite cars ever. Your spec on it is so amazing, so seeing is on the channel more often would be great. A hybrid rs6 would probably be the ultimate.
The purple paint is just so perfect
I love this segment/category of cars, and just wanted to share with you as a fellow enthusiast; I was lucky enough to pick up a white 2013 Panamera GTS, spec'd with practically everything... it's unbelievable.
Granted it's not RS6 crazy performance, but as an affordable "dream" station wagon "thing," it's perfect for me.
Keep up the amazing work and great content.
Good to see those 'smiles' per gallon on you
New RS6 :D
Audi and Porsche created the first ever super estate and first RS car ! The RS2 then came the B5 RS4 from the help from cosworth who worked on the engine to pump up the power from 265 to 380 bhp. Very tuneable engine
GTC4 Lusso in the same spec as your TDF👌
kimi88cz this
or this RS6 spec ;-)
specwise this is by far your most beautiful car. it gets me everytime it appears on your channel :)
Don't let that car go. Can't you keep it, that is just the best RS6 of all, the color and the interior. You said yourself, it's just run in and gets better all the time. Keep it! I will surely be sad to see it leave, I love that car...
Wait for the new RS7/RS6.
It probably will have 2 version as you just said and normal RS6 will have about 600ps and the performance one will have 650 ps just like Urus.
Garage update please! What’s coming, what’s going, what’s current and what’s staying
James - keep checking your channel for your TDF content! Patiently waiting ......
It's because it's by far the most superior super estate currently on the new car market today. No other manufacturer comes close
Second Gen RS7, 4 door, huge boot, and that hybrid edge your looking for.
Dear James, get in touch with ABT and get behind the wheel of their hybrid RS6 prototype!!
I think your next daily should be the 2019 Bentley Flying Spur. Four doors, W12, PDK, incredible interior.
The best channel ever!! It feels so homely!
I reckon when the CLS 63 Shooting Brake comes out (if they ever make it). That would be the car to have
Short and sweet, ABT Audi RS4 Avant. You keep the format of your RS6 in a smaller fun package.
ABT allready created a hybrid RS6, so i think it's very likely that this was a research project from audi, meaning it could very well become a serial production car. PDK would be amazing in addition to that powertrain
Although i am a total Chevy fanboy, a Audi RS6 Avant with a V8 is all a man needs in a car. I'd wait for the new model!
Jeep Cherokee Trackhawk has the Hellcat 707hp hemi engine and it's slightly faster than the Urus and then first is the Tesla Model X with that ludicrous electric torque. The Stelvio Quadrifoglio is slightly behind the Urus. i say that because I'd rather the Stelvio to the other three as far as SUV's. I can't get an RS6 in Canada, they don't sell them in this market in this model range. Pure shame. They claim no one wants a shooting brake, estate here over the SUV. I'd rather a shooting brake any day. Like you said the GT4 Lusso v12 is pretty much the top of my list for dream daily, but the RS6 has always been in the top 5 and the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo is a mouthful but I think an amazing all around vehicle. All that said the reality is you smashed the spec on this RS6 and it would be shame to let that go at all. I've wanted an RS6 since before i can remember. the V10 version would be insane.
Quality content as always, keep it up James!
James, would love to see you in a SEAT Leon ST Cupra 300 4Drive - just to give us your thoughts on a slightly more budget but fun estate - still 4 wheel drive.
Could you do a full garage tour?
Love the videos Mr. JWW
RS 6 ..........what a fantastic car! Stay with it! Enjoyed your video. Thanks James! 😃
Great video! Keep this and upgrade to the new RS6 when it’s launched! Audi never disappoints...
Really just want a video listing your garage. What would be better is all your cars parked somewhere. What would be even better would be a video in your garage!
Keep the RS6, love the RS6, please show us more of the RS6, but we NEED to see the TDF!!!
Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio please 🍀🙏🏼
You did say it was good 👍🏼
Amazing car but would seem a little off from his current collection.
Geeky hawk all about the Smiles Per Gallon not the badge. 😉
What about commissioning a custom shooting brake? Aston? Maserati? Some really nice Tesla conversions as well.
The new RS6
James, as a real British gentlemen, I think you should consider the new Jaguar XF-RS wagon when it comes out!!! The last gen was a real powerhouse, sounded mega and it also had a lot of space!!!
Take it to ABT that would be awesome
You've forgotten about the wonderful Alpina B5 in the super estate category.
Still craving more TDF but as always great video
Great to see your RS6 back James, it's been missed, and way more of it please. And why haven't you given it the ABT treatment yet??!! #youknowitmakessenseandhastobedone
Go for the very irrational choice; the Lusso. Imagine three V12's in your garage, that would be nuts. And you have your Range Rover as your daily cruiser, and the Lusso as a more sporty 'daily' then. Looking forward to seeing this unfold in the future. Keep up the great work 😎
I have also read those very same rumours about the next RS6. heard that the "Performance" version would be getting the engine out of the Panamera Turbo S E-Hbrid. And that the regular RS6 would get the Panamera Turbo engine. Also same rumor for the next RS7.
Also I LOVE the RS6, also the other fast wagons.
I think you should hold on to it, since you are so happy with it.
The Panamera and Bentley Continental GT use a shared chassis, if the RS6 is put on that chassis then a hybrid power train would definitely be possible. As for the Urus V8, I've been told it's going into the Continental GT next year so it looks like VAG are sharing it about.
I think you should get the new model once its announced, you dont need a “4 seat f12” since you already have an f12.
You should wait for the AMG GT4 Hybrid that comes out in 2020. That will be an animal!
Do an RS6 UK road trip and end up at a track day. Show how usable it is and how it will humble some serious supercar metal.
Take the RS6 to Litchfields and go Stage 2 (u already have the exhaust) then do a comparison video of what its like against stock with 720bhp.
If you're shopping for a GTC4 just save TONS of money and buy an FF (except lower tech) but better looking
Any chance of taking it over to ABT to bridge the gap?? Would make for awesome content. The RS6R looks unreal!
It’s a sports AWD beast for a family James, Mercedes Benz E63 Estate, wanna see more RS6 plz
Go for the Panamera Sport Turismo Turbo S E-Hybrid, PDK gearbox and V8+Hybrid assistance (like the 918) with 680hp:)
You should definitely take a look at the RS6-E from Abt. It's a Hybrid-RS6 with 1000 hp. Video is online on RUclips. 😉
Glad if the rumours are true that the RS6 is keeping the V8, was expecting them to down size it to a V6 or go full hybrid 2ltr.
Sad to see it go, a version with a DCT would be the ultimate though.
I'd love this to stay and get tuned! I wanna see it with 60k and 700hp!
Your RS6 is so beautiful! Love the purple colour!
Hold out for the release of the new RS6, its got heritage which I personally like. I reckon you should do an epic Christmas themed road trip in your current RS6 to Lapland. Looking at the map whatever route you took would be amazing. You could visit koenigsegg en route also dinner at Faviken.
The exhaust note 😍
I wish there were more options for wagons like this in the states. I would love to be able to get this. I wish Cadillac brought back their CTS-V wagon as well or maybe Dodge bringing back a new Magnum. The market is there for it if the car is worth it that's for sure
Another excellent videos James, but still we are all waiting for the F12 TDF video! 😂
I wonder if he has ever even heard of a ctsv wagon.. i domt think its made anymore. But its epic.. and manual option.
Have you ever considered an Alpina? A B5 Touring? It is powerful, comfortable, spacious and different...
Panamera Turbo SE? Amazing fuel economy because its hybrid, Porsche Performance, and ultra luxury!
Otherwise the next RS6 or an E63s wagon
