I'm not sure they do Adrian, it's more a check for boost leaks/N75s/MAFs and probably suspension and brakes. It looks like it's coming on Saturday now, I won't be able to drive it straight away anyway as the insurance company insist on me being 21 years old, so all I'll be able to do is detail/look at it for another 60 days, what an awesome birthday treat though!! The E55 is an awesome piece of kit too Glyn. I hope so Ian, it feels like I'm about to meet my childhood hero...! Zip, I've already got someone else trying to buy it from me and has asked for first refusal, so second refusal it is
I'm not selling though, ever. I would like to buy an RS 2 like the one below to compliment it, but it's a house for me next... The combined insurance for the BMW and the RS 6 is nearly £6,000 so the BMW will have to go at some point and I'll be replacing it with something cheaper/less powerful to drive to work in.



The BMW

Went to see it today in the BMW, four hours there and three and a half back, and worth every minute. As long as the owner can get the documents from another address tomorrow then it'll be sat on my drive this Saturday. When I pulled up in the BMW, there was a D2 parked on the same street as the RS 6, so got a shot... Check the plus in the rear view. BMW drove great too and did 52 mpg, it's a bloody excellent car too.

I just fell in love with it today. It looked so pumped up and fat, the side skirts and arches are huge, the colour is just immense and the sports exhuast from factory just snarls like only a V8 can. This photo shows off the colour a lot better.
