Touche! Although you could always combine it with a trip to the Nurburgring ;-)

An RS6 at the 'ring would spell financial suicide - I once saw a quote saying that in these heavy beasts 100 track miles was equivalent to 3000 road miles wrt brakes & tyres, and having already replaced front discs (I'm sure I could hear my visa card screaming), that would be even sillier :roll: :lol:

:shock:

OK, so trailer the Se7en to the Ring behind the RS6. Leather the Se7en around the ring and local backroads. Then leather the RS6 up and down the Autobahn [wthOUT trailer!] a couple of times.

Reverse all the above and you are home before you know it.

Job's a carrott...

although i have maxed my car in britain, i have to agree that the roads arent the best for it (except M6 toll). In fact, even german roads arent the best for it. French toll roads are fantastic though, and i remember slipstreaming a honda powered elise on the downhill section to abbeville before i had my honda. It was night time, and my stack lights werent working, but i had never heard the K rev so high, and the honda was well off the speedo :D

all good fun. Shame the froggies have cracked down on it now too. :(

Must shock the sh*t out of a few drivers as a tractor rumbled past them at almost 80(choose your own arbitrary unit of something per unit of something else personally i will be using PpJ Polos per Journey)

The fact that you know it would be a Quickie Divorce is sufficient to help avoid it, methinks :-)
