Thanks, Steven.
The Vossen wheels are my target but things are a little complicated.
The car was listed as having air suspension - I have it in the BiTDi and love it.
It's standard on the RS6 and Allroad, but only around 1 in 200 A6's have it. It's rare.
This RS6 doesn't have it. I came to an agreement with the seller about non air ride.
However, if I am to have the Vossen wheels, my choice would be 22" which by the account of the Speedhunters article are fine ride-wise.
The ride in comfort mode in my car is acceptable on the 21's, but I would be sticking my neck out going for 22's without air suspension. Could be a nightmare.
The problem I have, is that I find the 22 Vossen's irresistible.

Very nice Paul. Hope you are bringing it to the BOTG GTG.
I certainly will, if I keep it.

Love the car! Fantastic looking machine.
I do have a secret hankering for one in estate form even though I'm not really into them at all.
I'm not a huge fan of those wheels either but I love the Rotors and the ones on the newer one look funky:
Lovely.
Yes Rotors are nice. I have them on my BiTDi.
They also do a 5-spoke wheel for the 2020 model that looks great.
In exactly the same way as the rims will find any kerb, pot hole and road irregularity irresistible!The problem I have, is that I find the 22 Vossen's irresistible.
I ran 23" rims on the Eterniti prototype many years ago on 315/25 tyres. Being careful, I managed to keep the rims all scuff and dent free until the company owner borrowed the car and took it into central London for the evening. It came back with 3 scuffed rims and a claim that they had built all the car parks too small
I find a lot of Vossen wheels in general to be irresistible.
Luckily the tight rse in me stops me from splashing out!
And I know I would damage them quite quickly.

I can't see me ever parting company with the FFRR.
It's just such a lovely thing to own and I have always considered myself lucky to have it.
I still love the A6 Avant BiTDi, it's a stonker of a thing and if I do sell the RS6, it wont be much of a disappointment to go back to.
The BiTDi is bloody quick, the RS6 viscously so, but with a beautifully designed body.
Which disease?

This car is now for sale.
If anyone is interested, please feel free to drop me a PM.
In line with its current mileage, the car was serviced and had a positive health check at Audi main dealership last week.
I'll try to post an advert in the classified section this weekend.

My guess is he’s sitting on 9 points.
Thankfully, I have a clean license. That's that one jinxed, then.
