Thanks for popping in vorsprung durch technik, someone with a car that I've actually heard of, in fact, if I'm correct in saying that it's the estate version of mine, then I've been privileged enough to drive one as a courtesy car once or twice in the past too.
And styler too, good to know that we at least bought our cars in the same year, even if yours hasn't been on the road for quite as long.
That's a lot of miles steveb, and welcome to the 'long term Audi owners club'.

Cheeky sod.
She may be tucked up tight, but she does get used well when taxed, as Glamis proved-

Curiously, how many folk choose a classic Audi from a small fleet of the things, for regular commutes?

This last 4 years have seen me using the V8 regularly,


for 3 years mixing in the 100e quattro,


and since getting the ur back in 2013, that has been used out of desire, rather than cool headed choice.

Soon to be 25 years with my C3 Avant.

steveb - is your engine entirely original after 380k? Mine has just crossed 90k
