Wereking in a fast and classic car showroom yesterdat BM, and there for sale was a very tidy and original looking (apart from an array of 4 Cibes on the front  cloud9: ) Audi Quattro.
Mint inside and out but probably a monster £££££ pit. scared2:

I guessed it would probably be up for about £30k.

 noooo:

£15k eeek:

Arf tempted I tell you. cloud9:

I've driven one a few years ago. Windows down just so I could hear the BURBLE. cloud9:

Now actually you know BM, they were a very nice car, based on the Honda Accord of the time that they were all tucked up on bed with, all warm snug and cosy like iirc.

The 213 WAS the one to have, as THAT was an 'onda engine, whereas the 216 was a total crock of crap, being the BL shyte that we sadly know so well.

Crackin find that, but many parts are probably goosed due to lack of use.

Cars like us 'umans...and BEARS  cloud9: need regular exercise and servicing.
