Great to see it in the metal! It really is a small world, Rainhill, that is close! How have we not seen eachother driving round in satin black quattros!

Mind you 10 years ago, would have been in my sapphire blue 2.2E!

Sadly both Satin Black 90s have long since met their maker.
This is my current 90.

Despite being a long-time-lurker on the forums, this is my first post - which I shall use to thank everyone for their kind comments about my 10v quattro :tup: Nice to meet you on Sunday Ken, was nice to see someone point out all the bits and pieces I have spent weekends working on and losing sleep over :smilewinkgrin:

To the list of mods I can add:

-BillzcatII short shift using factory gear lever & leather knob
-Floor console with extra cigarette lighter and illuminated rear ashtray.
-Coupe heated door lock on drivers door, which itself is a B4 door to get the revision inside which stops the window rattling when down. Had to replace the drivers wing as rusty but got an original Audi wing off a tidy B3 80 in scrappers - paintwork all tidied up at the same time.
-Electric Headlamp Level adjust
-Coupe rear centre lap belt (retractable)
-Audi Cabriolet leather handbrake
-Cabriolet dash centre with Audi Delta CC radio (A8 D2 CD changer compatible with Delta in boot)
-Front heated leathers were from an S2 Avant along with the seat loom, I retained the 90 headrests. All working and great in the winter.
-Also polybushed the front wishbones and anti roll bar.

Those refurbished ET37 wheels are the legacy of my old 2.2E, the quattro came with THE nastiest set of after markets you have seen in ages when I bought it in 2007 :shake:

Other than that just done maintenance - strut top mounts, rear wishbones, brakes all round (standard), new header tank, G12, timing belt, water pump, radiators, and regular oil & filter changes.

She has been good to me and I intend to keep her as long as she will have me! :crazy:

Welcome , your 90 is a fine looking & tastefully upgraded car , really spot on :tup:

That's really, really lovely Ken :nod:

My 2.2E had the same spoiler, used to like polishing its chrome too!

Great to see another 90, and so local too.

There is another I know of, a black 20v sport, H-reg that I have seen parked up on Huyton business park off Wilson Road. Might you know that one? Its satin black like mine, and I work round the corner - I often think what are the chances of that :shocked:

Yep, seen the black H Plate (Panther, rather than Satin Black) around and about on the Speke Retail Park near the airport. Not a patch on yours, to be fair!

I stand corrected! ;) I only saw it down a side road - thanks again for being so complimentary about the car, I have only recently started to show it off. First and foremost its been my daily driver, hankering after a newer Audi but only having a limited budget - then I saw on the internet 2 guys commenting on the apparent rarity of the 10v 90 quattros in sports guise, and the penny dropped :crazy:

First and only piece of good luck seeing it on ebay that day! :rock:

His new badges are particularly nice. :tup:
