Equally committed as Sharon ! Im on my 5th since 1996, after along line of NSU's and VW's, one SEAT, all part of the family ! - Although there's lots of cars I like, I couldnt ever see me not having an Audi especially since I found this place

Like you I had a modern Audi and went back to a classic one, my Dad had an A3 Sport in Merlin, now has a current shape A3 in red, one sister has a black A2 Tdi and the other an A4 2.4 cabrio in black and an A3 Sportback 2.0Tdi in red

Its a marque. I own a rare model from their range. Nothing more.
I'm more committed to car owners and helping out people in need. Audi, Volkswagen, Peugeot. Makes no difference to me

Well, first it was a VW Scirocco, but by choice, Audis since 1996.

I can quite easily see myself in them for the forseeable future.

The build quality of my Coupe B4 and to a lesser degree my 200 Turbo is excellent.

Everythings well screwed together and quality brand componentage abundant.

That 2.6 V6 engine in my old Lime Coupe is fookin marvellous.Quiet,smooth,completely fools you into thinking youre in a car of about year old,not 12.

Shame theyre shite now.
Modern Audis have no interest for me whatsoever.I have been out in many and know th performance difference and sophistication levels.
I dont care....I dont want one.....I want an 80s or 90s one.....this is when they were built how I like them.This is what won me over in the first place.

Pretty committed then

1st proper car VW Scirocco Mk1,then since 1988 I,ve owned four q90 B2 type 85 saloons.
Still own one and a half q90,s.

Followed rallying as a lad,love the Audi q and wanted to own one.Couldn,t afford a UR

,so settled for a q90 saloon.Love them.

Always wanted a turbo,I,m half way there.(q90 (holy)shell+ABY.)Best of both worlds,q90+turbo.
Love lots of cars,especially classic cars.

I actually like lots of different cars for lots of different reasons.

As far as Audi's are concerned I really love the quattro, and have real interest in the S2/RS2 as a relation to it, but it sort of ends there really (bar the 200 5T, another favourite).

I appreciate other Audi's for what they are though. Solid, well built (on the whole!), well engineered cars.

s2's are well built just a shame they go unnoticed

very nice, wonder if I should do the same with a type 89/s2 front/rear

agree with you there, I sooooooo badly want another ford, rusts the only downside to me.

I still have the first audi I went in, the one I came home from the hospital when I was born

I was tempted to do some work on it today, I will do once I can get it out after i've got the cab sorted. Got a better condition carpet to go in it and new rear wheel cylinders lying around to put on it.
