So me and my brother were driving back from a family function in the BMW, we were on a quite country lane and it must have been about 2 in the morning when he noticed some car lights in a muddy field close to the side of the road, I stopped the car and two young kids came up to the car, they thought we were police at first and said they were stuck. I would have felt bad just leaving them so thought, perfect test for the quattro. My brother thought I was mad, I'll admit I was a bit scared myself. Anyway, I Went home (about fifteen minutes away) and returned with the A8 and a towrope, the A8 got into the sludgy mud no problem albeit with abit of wheel spin here and there and drove up to the Sukzuki. Anyway, I passed them the tow rope and told them to attach it to the car, but they couldn't find where to hook it to, so I drove the A8 onto the road again, very fun slipy and slidy but at no point did the A8 get stuck. I had a look myself and could not find the towing eye or the hook that you would hook it into, think maybe it was removed when I had the Quads fitted.
Anyway, I will post some more pictures later that will get me into great trouble with Mr. Ska, probably the dirtiest A8 around...
P.S After a word from a friendly police woman, I went and got the A8 cleaned!

Shocking :eek: I have been scared for life:D

What were they up to in a field late at night....... Steamy windows :ROFL:

How could you Singh. For heavens sake!!! A BMW...... Wooo Wooo and thrice Woooo :-(

To be fair I did look at an A4 but the Beemer was in a different league, the way it picks up power, handles and rides is amazing. I'm also getting it remapped to 350BHP and 520lb/ft! too which should get the 0-60 time to the very low 5 secs. I'll get me coat... :o
