1990 Audi V8 3.6 32v 71k
Putting my V8 up for sale as with the increased fuel costs, running this as a daily just isn't paying dividends!!
That said, it's as comfy as hell and when you don't hoof it, you'll get high 20's out of it. The other week I drove from mine to Warrington and back and averaged 28mpg. Anyway, this is a cheap luxo-barge. It's not perfect but I'm not asking the world for it! The low down. It's a 1990 Audi V8 with the 3.6 32v lump. (243bhp). Fitted with: Full leather interior Electric seats (heated and full adjustable) Electric windows and mirrors Climate Control Audi Gamma stereo Walnut cappings. Electric sunroof 15" wheels all with good tread. 71k from new. MOT till March 2010 Tax until end March 2010 Car was used for several years, then laid up in storage in about 2002, where it sat till earlier this year. The chap I got it off spent about £500 on recommissioning it. Fluids/belts etc. It does have a few minor niggles, but it's nearly 20 years old, it's a V8 and it's is less than a grand! (will be higher if I advertise it on eBay/PH) Drivers seat heater intermittent A small dent/crease on the pass door Small amount of rust bubbles on the drivers door where the rubber trim meets the door. There's an area about 6" sq on the front of the bonnet where the lacquer has lifted and has also affected some of the basecoat but not the primer. Handrbake is crap but it's an auto quattro so just put it in park and lock all 4 wheels up instead of just the back 2! Rears pads have wear left but light on dash says they need changing. I have bought a new set of rear pads and they will go with the car. drivers side rear leccy window switch in-op. Bonnet has had a respray at some point as it's a slightly bluer shade of silver. Not much history. I have done a small video so you can have a look around the car yourself. Better than a few arty photo's! |

The V8 is silky smooth and hardly breaks in to a sweat doing a steady 70 on the motorway. However, switch her in to 'sport' mode and hoof it and you feel a huge amount of power take you and the huge barge forward in to the middle of next week! Not quite the same as the brutish force you get from an RS2 when the turbo kicks it at around 3000rpm, but powerful enough all the same and the pick up is nice and constant and the auto change is very smooth. |

Al,is this the one you bought earlier in the year?
As I thought it was blue and you returned it for a refund... Didnt know you had another one... Interested in exchanging for Gelbus??? I know you've been looking for a 2.6 for a while now... Shes running the best she ever has lately.Ive thrown about a couple of grand at her this year. Id really like an Auto again... PM me if youre interested By my reckoning our cars are worth about the same money.

This one I picked up 2 months ago at ADI. Not really after an exchange as I've kinda got too many at the moment and already bought a replacement for the V8 today. |
