Well done Mikkijayne
I was watching this right up to the end of the auction, to see what it finally went for. Glad it went to someone on the forum, who will bring it back to life, rather than break it. Love the Avus Silver and Red interior, but then I am very biased. Will look forward to seeing it back up and running again and at one of our meets. Happy days.

November seems to be 'Dead S8' month - I bought mine this time last year, nearly to the day!
The engine in this one is fish food. Looking at the shiny chunks down #6 its very likely the head and block are done for, in which case I'll park it out the back of the workshop until a good used engine turns up. I'm not likely to keep it tbh, as while I adore the interior, I have had enough silver Audis to last a lifetime. Plus I already have my grey one which is virtually brand new underneath. I would love to put the interior in mine, albeit with black bits instead of grey, but I'm not sure I can bring myself to corrupt an FE by putting a black interior back in. That all depends what its like when I get it on the lift. The 2.7TT swap I think needs to wait for a late FL 2.8QS which isn't silver

minus the American engine of course. And imagining a D2 instead of a C5.Although that would be something too. http://www.motorgeek.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=39901 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUnZU8TxO08 Ever thought about a RWD S8? hmm, ok the trans isn't that cheap. Minus 14kgs compared to 01E though. http://www.schwartzperformance.com/p...-transmission/ Last edited by Goran; 25th November 2016 at 01:34 PM.
