Thanks David - I'll try to rotate all of the cars fairly so none get too jealous! I havent even mentioned the A2 1.6 FSi Sport I just bought in Dolphin Grey with a Votex Body Kit and the seperate Red leather interior which is going into it . . . . :o

I still think he has a size fixation, needs some therapy I think :ROFL:
I've had many engine sizes and BHPs but his memory is also probably fading as he gets older :D

Garage of joy :) Congratulations. I hope you all have a long and happy relationship, with perhaps the putter of a little one in your future :ROFL:

But how will you cope with the extra 500 normally-aspirated cc's...….

Not in the least - I actually quite like the plate which is on the car its an MK plate which probably means the car was first registered by Audi UK at Milton Keynes, and the letters are FFE . . .Fantastic Final Edition! :love:
Perhaps you've caught Ians condition as well Andrew? :p

Why thank you kind sire . . . .and as TinTin will attest this also presents itself as much improved MPG when I want it to as well! +++

I think Nick's D3 S8 was Metallic black but it was hard to tell due to being mostly covered in sand!
:ROFL: |
