It's been emotional.....

Hi folks

As some of you may know I've been debating selling my FE for some time, with occasional half-hearted posts suggesting I might let it go, but no real effort going into advertising. I nearly had a buyer a couple of months ago, but it fell through due to change in his circumstances.

Well today I bid farewell to the S8 - it's currently on a long road trip to Glasgow where it's taking up residence with another fanatical Audi owner who happens to have need for a family wagon. It's basically the same reasoning that saw me buying the S8 6 years ago Hopefully Andy will register on here and may well be seen by the others on here who know the car that live up that way.

I can't recall being this emotional about selling a car, ever. I've been feeling properly depressed all afternoon

It probably doesn't help that the sale is partly due to hoping to move house and wanting the space and cash for the costs with that, but the market seems very slow round here at the moment, so no immediate plans for a replacement to cushion the feeling of loss. Long term I want an RS6 Avant, but may need to buy something small and sensible in the New Year if the house isn't progressing.

I'm sure I'll hang around on here as I've always enjoyed posting, both to learn stuff myself and to help others out.

Thanks to Neil for the help he's given in finding the right home for the S8 and to Chris from AOC who has also helped point people my way.

Life goes on, but a little poorer for the loss of my S8

Cheers all

Adrian
