Default 'Fire up the Quattro!'

I don't want to upset anyone here but am I the only one fed up of every advert for a UR quoting 'fire up the quattro'? Just makes me link the car to a crappy BBC series rather than a great piece of automotive engineering...rant rant rant

Hmmmm yes every ebay ad for a quattro seems to do that now, with all the crap coming out of the woodwork expecting to get top dollar but on the plus side it has raised the profile for the car and reminded everyone why we suffer NLA issues etc. IMHO the quattro is the most iconic car ever but then I am biased
