Supposed Audi kept the production rate and Erik is right with about 800 in 2002, they must have well...
Hi Headroom42,
I also have the Dunlop M3 on my 19" optional OEM wheels, but these are 255/35/19.
I donīt think Dunlop makes a 245/35/19 and even if they did, this would not be legal in Germany...

Andre,
Glad you made up your mind and ordered yours finally.
Glad too (a tad bit) that my Siena Red RS6 remains unique for the time being though I would feel honored if someone picked the same...

The average seems to depend very largely on your style of driving. More so with the RS6 than I have seen on other cars. Itīs probably the (twin)turbo syndrome.
My highest "average" on...
Have had my RS6 Avant now for a bit more than 2 months and fuel consumption so far has averaged 14,9 l/100 km which equals about 16,8 mpg.
