I am really struggling to find a Type 44 avant auto in some sort of working order so if i have to do a round trip of 1000miles sobeit.

Sounds good to me.

My 100 is still for sale. High idle. Drove it 100 yards on my own land last weekend.

Brakes work but discs need a good use to get rid of rust.

Took some more external photos tonight, and it will go on eBay at the weekend.

I need to remove all the spares from inside, and photo them for a complete listing.

Retro, are you ok to do bushes and brake calipers?

I have the spare 100 I am going to try and get the idle relay off.

Right, now have the logistics sorted

It's 302miles from Telford to Dunfermaline, if we were to use David's 80 oil burner we could transport us and a set of wheels,

Drive up Saturday PM and drive back Sunday AM/PM

All I need now is contact from Andy (anyone got a number?)

Looks as if my search continues as we spent most of yesterday trying to find a set of cheap wheels/tyres capable of use for 300+ Motorway miles.

The problem is that this car has 4X108 PCD with quite tall tyres, whereas most Audi/VW are 5X112.

If someone else on here wants to have a deal with Andy, please feel free.
