Having heard horror story after horror story when it comes to ownership of RS cars I just wondered whether this was true or all a falicy.
I'm in the market for a 'bigger' vehicle which will transport me, the wife, future kids & a couple of dogs. The short list includes an RS6.
My main concern is being woken up in the middle of the night by a stranger demanding keys for it. It wouldn't be a new one, maybe a year or two old, but still probably 40k's worth of car.
I don't have a garage & therefore whatever I buy will be parked outside the house on the road, albeit in a decent area.
Are they still prime targets ?

Cheers for the replies.
Do you think de-badging it really helps ? I mean, the people who would be interested in it would surely recognise it from the wheels/exhausts/mirrors, etc, etc.
Its still a maybe then.

I don't think de-badging would make much difference. About 4 years ago thieves broke into our house at 3AM. Luckily we always set the alarm on the ground floor at night - so once in, the alarm triggered and they scarpered. I thought at the time that it was a normal break in. However, it later came to light that it was a specialist team that were targeting high performance Audis and VWs. My VW was de-badged - they still found it - although failed to get it.
