The A6 is not such a beast, indeed it is a very normal car to drive. I bought it because the A6 is cheaper than an A4 and anyone thinking of buying one will find some great discounts.

However, as I own my own car on the negative side is the depreciation, fuel consumption (2.7 Tdi Auto) and now car tax. Insurance is only be £20 a year more than the new A4 and so doesn't count.

Looking at the 'old' A6, the new A4 is very similiar in size which is in keeping with the modern trend to produce ever bigger cars. I would not be surprised if Audi in a few years merge the A6 and A8 to produce a single big exec car. A friend of mine drives an A8 which he can do becase the leasing costs are so low given that he drives so few miles and the leasing company were desperate to off load the beast.

I can think of a new thread coming on 'future audi developments', I think we have more of an idea than those at Audi HQ who can not even launch a superb car like the A4 without upsetting many loyal customers as demonstrated on the many threads on this web site.
