Ever since the original C5 generation arrived over two decades ago, the RS6 has been the definitive answer to a question very few manufacturers have managed to answer: how do you combine devastating, supercar-slaying performance with the everyday practicality of a family estate?

Reviewing the C8 generation (the model advertised for sale here),Top Gear magazine praised its dual-personality, stating that the tech layout and features mean the "interior wouldn't embarrass an A8 limo," concluding that it stands as a "very complete family wagon." — Top Gear Audi RS6 Review

Autocar was equally smitten by its sheer breadth of usability, highlighting its "genuine any-weather, any-trip usability" and noting that the cabin "mixes luxury with restrained performance purpose like no other." — Autocar Audi RS6 Avant Review

Meanwhile, PistonHeads focused on its unparalleled everyday versatility, summarizsing it as a vehicle that "retains that feel of an epic, mile-munching mega estate," and highlighting its status as one of the most consummate all-rounders on the road. — PistonHeads Audi RS6 Review

It is, without question, a modern icon. A car with presence to spare, a loyal fan base, and all the credentials to remain highly sought-after as the automotive landscape shifts. It gives you the pace to run with a Ferrari F40, yet it remains as practical as your grandfather’s garden workshop.

About this Audi RS6

This stunning 2022 example is finished in the highly-desirable and iconic shade of Nardo Grey, a colour that perfectly accentuates the flared arches and muscular stance of the RS6.

Having covered 18,609 miles in the hands of four owners, this car has been fastidiously maintained and boasts a full Audi main dealer service history. The car has covered a mere 25 miles since its most recent service, which was performed at 18,584 miles by the team at Audi Tunbridge Wells.

It belongs to a client of Racing Green Car Storage, and is being presented as a private sale.

Inside, the cabin presents like new, showing virtually no signs of wear. The current owner is full of admiration for the RS6's extraordinary breath of capability, but with family requirements changing, they have decided to switch to a Range Rover – meaning this exceptional estate is ready for its next custodian.

Audi RS6 performance

Under the aggressive bonnet sits a 4.0-litre bi-turbo V8 engine, bolstered by a 48-volt mild-hybrid system. It serves up a monumental 600hp and 590lb ft of torque.

Channelling that power through Audi’s legendary quattro all-wheel-drive system means this family-friendly estate can rocket from 0-62mph in just 3.6 seconds, and hit 0-124mph in a mere 12 seconds.

Yet, numbers only tell half the story. Thanks to its standard-fit adjustable air suspension and the Audi Drive Select system, this car behaves like a split personality in the best possible way. On the school run, it floats along with the refinement and supple ride of a luxury limousine. But flick the RS button on the steering wheel, and the suspension firms up perfectly, the exhaust opens up, and the car transforms into a machine on a mission.

This iteration of RS6 also features four-wheel steering, a game-changing piece of engineering that shrinks the car around you, providing incredible low-speed agility in tight turns and rock-solid stability at high speeds.

A supercar for real life

While it can give mid-engined exotics a serious fright, this RS6 never forgets its day job. It remains an incredibly usable estate car.

Freshly detailed and presenting in impressive condition throughout, it features a massive 565-litre boot capacity, adjustable luggage rails in the floor, a powered tailgate, and a luggage guard to keep cargo secure. For those with young families, it is exceptionally accommodating, featuring three ISOFIX mounting points for child seats.

Naturally,the car is accompanied by a clean HPI check, its digital service printout, spare keys, and all original handbooks.

The Audi warranty can be renewed at the buyer's discretion. Finance details available upon request.

The price is £79,995.
