reg doesnt really tell you anything about the car does it? :?
could have been a 1.8, could have been a 2.7 twin turbo or even a 400+bhp v8

Just done a registration lookup on MD06 BNB.

Audi S6 5.2 V10 Auto, and it was black am I right? lol.

That'll be the engine from a Lamborghini Gallardo then.

426bhp and 0-60 in a standing 5.0

Noice!

Beware of big Audis - I've seen an Audi R6 driven in anger... brutally fast. :twisted: Chipped they're even faster.

That should be RS6. Remember these cars have monster torque at low revs, a bit like big AMG Mercs.

Btw, the S6 doesn't hang about either.

I already knew what it was as I was behind him as he came off the same motorway exit as me.
I had checked the cars model and spec on RAC website when I got home... Just thought I'd let someone else look it up rather than me telling you what it was. :twisted:

Nope, we just know what the DVLA website is, and that we can do online vehicle enquiries using it to give info on the car 8)

Very useful when chav's park saxo's covered in VTR badges with 3" twin exits exhausts stuck on outside your office registered T39 CFT, and you look it up with delight to find it's a hot hatch of the highest order.....

a 1.1 East Coast!!!!

well that statement about the dvla would have been a little more impressive if the guy hadn't admitted that he knew what the car was..

I think the point was that someone else would verify that it was an above average powered Audi. Whereas if he had posted up about it being 5.2 V10 then it kinda confirms his story. Though he should have just posted it up as I for one would not be @rsed to look it up.

You can also declare your car off road if you like, and a few other things.
