Hi all,
I thought i'd create a thread for my latest car. I've been an Audi owner for the last 7 years, with a B6, and then 3 years ago I bought a 1.8TQS, also, as my toy car. Typically I prefer older cars, and I was never a fan of the B7 shape, although it's growing on me I must admit!
The B6 was a great car, but it was just starting to cost too much. At 207k miles, I felt it had served me well though, but it was time to move on.
Here's a few pics of my other cars, and then some of my latest. I don't have many plans for the B7, apart from keep it relatively standard, so don't expect this to be a mega build thread. My B5 is where my plans lie, and modding 2 cars is just too much work and money.
The car is a 3.0TDI quattro, with a marmite exhaust. It's been ABT tuned, and has the ABT exhaust/ valance. Some days I like it, generally it's not my cup of tea at all, but I didn't buy it for the exhaust so it may change at some point. Regardless of that, it's fast and great fun.
It was bought with a few issues. It is going into limp mode so I need to sort that (more details in another post later on the findings/ progress but it's obviously turbo related/ either wiring or blocked) and the exhaust was hanging low and has since been re-welded back onto its hanging bracket (£20-bargain). It's one owner from new, and been very well maintained.
Anyway, here's a few pics and i'll update when I do stuff! Any questions, do ask!
Cheers
