Hopefully it does not belong to anyone here because I'm sure once forensics are done, it will be re-united with the owner...something probably the owner wouldn't want after being ragged like that.


Still...nice to know the police couldn't keep up with it :- )

RS5...Lambo....eh?

Do they mean someone's retrofitted the V10 from an RS6 or are they saying the RS5 (V8 no?) has a Lambo engine?

I was thinking this earlier too but they do go onto mention how it was modified or words to that so who knows
Maybe the S6 engine somehow fit?
Or it's the typical media errors

Inaccuracies I'd guess... It's not a saloon either eh. RS6 maybe they mean? Drove for an hour before stopping.... Ran out of fuel I'd guess ha! Fuel tanks a tad small IMO....

The criminal classes appreciate a quality motor too!
