Dont ever think you can drive it gently and get a sensible mpg. Forget it, its just not possible. Its not just a discipline thing, as all it wants it nailing hard with that gorgous V8 rumble, but the turbos are always purring, just supping the juice via the twin fuel pumps.

Having driven an RS6 at work there is nothing I can add.
The only cars I've driven that come close are BMW M Cars and AMG 63 Mercs but they are not Audi's and I wont buy anything else at the moment..
Although a great car I dont think I could live with one. They are too harsh as a daily driver.
As IT says they just love to be nailed.
