The Appeal

If you're after an A6, chances are the V8 is your priority. Smooth, potent, muscular - it's a fabulous grand tourer if ever there was one, and sets itself apart proudly from its 6-cylinder stablemates. These V8-equipped A6s have become increasingly scarce and increasingly popular - a real modern classic if ever there was one.

This example has been brought out of a private collection, where it had been garage-stored for over five years. A recommission has been carried out this year, bringing the car back to road-ready condition with an MOT valid until April 2027.
