Default The Emereld Ess Must live again

She's still there Amar, waiting. Waiting for your to breathe life back into her noble form.
Dr Christian Ben-Williamson is prepped and ready. She needs a new heart Amar. A new heart with which she can again fly the twisting and flowing back roads of Britain.
Bequeath life to her Amar and she'll reward, exhilarate and thrill you.
And once more you will be able to pull back the curtain of a gloomy morning, and you heart will sing to be greeted by her lustrous presence

Me? Take the pee. Perish the thought.
It is kinda sad to see her sitting there, bits hanging off and looking so neglected

Amar
Glad to see your back in one piece (you are back?). What can you tell us about the up and coming offerings from Audi?
Can Ben help you with a recovery person. Also, do you ned someone in Burton. If your moving her back to Leaminton, someone from your home patch has the same miles to make the recovery.
Do tell about Germany
How did you get the invite
What are they up to

The green one looks stunning in that picture you posted, I wish I still had it.
Have bigger problems now, when returning back from Munich and getting into the new 8, I thought wow this feels nice. Then it started shaking and vibrating, now when at idle I can see my wallet on the passenger seat jumping up and down that is the extent of the vibration, i'd rather the box were on its way out then the engine as I have one!
If its an engine out job to sort then the engine will go back into the green one. Just hope its easy to sort, I NEED to drive it everyday Mon-Fri on a 20 mile journey and am out the house from 8am-8pm everyday rushed of my feet working/driving/studying so will not get a chance to open it up and can't get through to Ben. Feels like I'm just waiting for this one to blow the feck up too now.
I'll do a separate thread on Germany, it was the most awesome weekend I have had.
