I know it was sold to another person but Jon Olsson must be gutted.

I imagine he is.

None of the articles say that it was used in an armed robbery.

The first one does

Headline clearly says "AUDI RS6 DTM RACECAR STOLEN IN ARMED AMSTERDAM HEIST"

After the robbers failed to realise the owner still had the keys so they couldn't restart the car..... They decided to set the car a light. Massive Derp.

So where in those words does it say it was used in an armed robbery?

Heist=robbery does it not?

From Google

HEIST

1. Noun - Robbery

It also clearly means, the way the car was stolen.

Guess I misinterpreted it a bit. Title changed

It was stolen in an armed robbery. They went up with guns and took it from the driver

Clearly the robbers took the car, and then used it to take the car in the same robbery.

 

[Ibonibo]

There was a petrol station robbery. Whether this was before or after the car being stolen is not told (Yet)

The car was in a Tunnel for a photoshoot. Engine running. That's when it was stolen. The owner still had the keys in the pocket.

So they couldn't restart it. (I wonder why they could drive more than a mere few hundert meters...

Really incredible. It was apparently found close to here, damaging 2 more cars.

(It was on sale for 400k Euro)

1000hp RS6 DTM?? One of those words doesn't belong with the other two

How so? The build was DTM inspired and he bumped the engine up to 1000hp.

They don't actually race the RS6 in the DTM...

 

[MatskiMonk]

Err, yeah thanks I know that

This has 0% to do with a DTM car. Kinda ricedouche, like me sticking some mods on my 1 series and calling it a 120d BTCC.

400k for an RS6?!? I thought Jon only sold it not too long ago.

 

[GTboyz]

Gosh this breaks my heart.

In all the Dutch news this number was mentioned. It is not a "standard" RS6.
Lot of speculation about new owner Douwe Leitner.

Yes.... Thanks for pointing out it isn't a standard RS6 *Sarcasm*

The number must be over exaggerated.

I didn't made it up. It's just the number which is all over the news, with the gold plated turbo's and all.
Also think it's a "bit" much.

Interesting to know what the insurance will say?

 

[MHPALA]

Sad to see such a beauty gone. Can't wait to see his new project. Amazed at how the Audi V8s / 8 speed can make that power with just turbo upgrades (They did not state what other modifications were done besides the turbos, so i'm going to assume).

thank you freedom and democracy

The pervious owner has a company called DoucheBags. What did you expect?

Sherlock Holmes (i.e me) says that the owner needed money and couldnt sell it because how many people want to spend 400k on an RS6 so came up with the idea to get it stolen and torched. That my theory without any evidence, just a hunch. My older bro did this over 20 years ago whilst i was with him at the cinema, I had no idea at the time but eventually sussed it out.

What a dick your older brother is.

Hard times. He's actually the straightest out of my brothers. It was actually the only thing wrong he did in his life, My other bros were far more prone to doding things they shouldnt

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Never again sadly...

 

[Kent]

Did they ever catch the crooks in this case?
I wonder what the insurance coverage was on this car. I have no doubt they will be investigating just as much (probably more) than the police.
