Repainting the RS 6 Nogaro (or is it Sprint?) Blue - from the inside
Ever had one of those days?
I went down to the building site where my house is just being finished off. The decorator told me he had a couple of unused cans of paint that I could have back to take to the store for a refund (can you guess where this is heading?). I didn't really want to have to take them back right then, but he was pretty insistent and I didn't want to rain on his helpfulness parade, so I took the paint cans.
I had to get off to work in a bit if a hurry to make a meeting, so off I went. I completely forgot about the paint cans in the trunk. Until I went round a tight corner in a hurry and something went "thunk". At first I just thought that something had come adrift in the trunk under the g-forces my performance driving was creating, and after a couple more "thunks" it dawned on me...

P.S. That colour isn't of my choosing, it's my teenage son's choice for his bedroom. I've nothing against Nogaro (or is it Sprint?) Blue, but I don't think I'd be keen to have my bedroom walls painted in it!

So the euro RS6 doesn't have the big battery box in the trunk?
