rich how far away from u is the car??? as i still havent bought a car yet maybe this could be a nice lil winter project for me...via ben! :rock: so does any1 have any ideas how hard it would be to source a 4.2 from s8 s6 or sumthin like that n have it installed? how much? ive always loved these n especially in black! any1 else on here own a v8??

hi Amar,

firstly finding a V8 is easy....ring 07784549552 and Will should have one there or know where to find one.... IF you REALLY want a proper V8 in it.... ask Grizz if he has a donor RS6 BI TURBO V8 ENGINE:ihih::nod::lol:

Secondly,I am in Ayrshire,west Scotland and the car is in Aberdeenshire so I am at least4 hours away.

blimey...ok never mind was thinkin if it was a stones throw away u could pop over n tek a look for us. no worries. this is gonna be a mission to get bak to the midlands for any1!

wouldnt ths be a pain in the arse n costly to get a manual fitted as this is an auto? would be nice to just keep it as a standard 4.2 v8 at tho moment atleast coz insurance wud be hard enuff for me on that let alone an rs6...would be an absolute ripping machine with a bi turbs tho:ihih:

come up next Friday then it will give me something to do next Saturday...the Boss is away so I am free to play.

getting it south is easy,flatbed it:tup::ihih:

a manual conversion would be financial meltdown... keep it auto:idea::tup:

Amar,you shouldalso get a V8 and box/ rear diff from All Audi in Bristol

:D

Amar, if you want to check out a V8, I've got one on me drive!
It's even got an engine in it, albeit only the 3.6 but at least it goes and you can see what you're getting in to. Will be for sale soon as well as I'll be using the 90q as my daily when Alex gets her coupe.

nice banner Coxy,

that V8 is only a couple of hours from me, i was thinking v8 diesel myself, as i get to drive some of these through work. although an expensive conversion without all the donor parts. suppose it also depends on what it fetches?

I think whoever buys it should stick a perkins prima diesel engine from a sherpa in. Nice cheap engine swap. :rock:
