Hi guys,

Thaught I would intoduce myself, Andy, from manchester UK and just put a deposit down on a 2003 RS6 ABT.

As a new member I will probably milk all your knowledge guys n gals but hope I can add soething back to the site in time.

As such first question, does anyone have a similar model to this and if so any comments? Whats peoples opinion of my decision on my next car?

Thanks! Andy:rs6kiss:

Here are some pics of my 2002 E46 estoril blue BMW M3. Manual box with the 19ich wheel option. It has a sports cat back exhaust and a short shifter. Love the car to bits but cant get away from the 500bhp alternative!

It's been a while since I saw an Abt RS6.

Looks really good!

[AndyBG]

Very clean looking car, and very rare one too... This is first time I see full ABT RS 6, besides official pic's...

Congratulations, enjoy it! :cheers:

very very nice car:addict: but i think audi 19" rims would be better.

[AndyRS6ABT]

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated.

I like to be different so love the 20" ABT rims :-) but just hope I dont have to replace any of them (£1000 each)!

Cheers Andy

Please excuse my ignorance but what is an ABT RS6? Never heard of one, this is the first one I have seen.

Is there some tuning upgrades? There are some visual queues I see in the photos but is that it? Thanks!

Those 20" look like some good curb feelers, be careful!

Hi guys n gals,

Took my new motor on a rolling road this saturday morning, it made 546bhp on the 4th and final run when the garage figured out how to hold the car in gear! Very pleased with this considering its the standard ABT tune! Its just been serviced and cam belt change so she is looking healthy. The run was done on 97RON Sheel V Power fuel. Was the most powerful run of the day :rs6kiss:

Cheers Andy

Welcome Andy.

And welcome to the V-power £100 fill up!!:D

I am trying to decide what to inject mine with QST, MRC or now ABT, choices choices choices.........................

Hiya,

Yer I dont mind the £100 fill up - its how long it lasts thats the stinger lol!

With regards tuning, obviously the rollers speak for themselves and you cant argue with such a good bhp figure. I would however say my initial corres. with ABT have not been great. I have rang them twice now for a couple of quotes, one on brakes and one on a new wheel, both times they havn't bothered to ring me back!! Suprising considering there prices!

Will get a scanned copy of the printout up shortly.

Cheers Andy
