The 4.2 FSI is a rare car - Thats because most people want the Diesels by the facelift age. To those like me and Guy that value a petrol, might as well leverage their unpopularity to their buying advantage.

Just because its the cheapest one there, doesnt mean its a good price.

Ive been watching S6's now for 3 weeks. The cheapest advertised is £13500, with most being 14 or 15K +. Only two have gone to auction on Ebay, 1 with sensible miles, nice spec and colour making only 10.5K, and another starting at 12.5K got no bids.

That puts the value of S6's around 11K in my eyes, maybe 12 from a dealer. And for that reason, I've not bought one yet, as everyones asking stupid money for them.

My point is - Pay what you need to, not what is being asked for.

Agreed. Guy, just a small point you cannot convert the FSi engine to LPG if that was your intention. Fine if not of course!
