"The Audi S6 is an iron fist in a velvet glove: it’s powerful and fast, but also pretty subtle and quiet"

    Tell us what you think about your car?
    Good car. Nicely built. MHEV Engine is good, but the gearbox/ICE relationship is not very well configured. Reliability: 2/5 Electrical problems are the worst. I've never had a vehicle with so many electrical faults. Jerky auto.
    What's the one thing you like most about your car?
    Performance/economy balance. A diesel engine in an 'S' car is a great idea in my opinion. If only the engine/gearbox calibration was better.
    If you could improve one thing, what would it be?
    Electrics! Woefully unreliable.
    Would you recommend the car to a friend?
