  • Hello At Last - My New Car - RS2 Volcano Black

    Well I guess I should also introduce myself too. Been on the forum since 2012 and watching for the right car to come along. Almost bought an S2 Avant years before I came on this forum, an was pointed onto here from one of the members (thanks Steve - you know who you are).

    So about me. A little older than some people, met a few from here at Crieff and Dunkeld. We live a little north of Dundee and like to travel around the country and indeed over to Europe. Not the worlds best mechanic but can do some work on cars, so will probably be looking to pick some brains.

    The RS2 is Volcano Black, beautiful colour but will be tough love to keep clean when she's been out and the rain comes on. I got her from Belgium from a great guy Steve (not the one who pointed me to the forum), who's been pretty meticulous with her since he began his love affair with her too. I think I've pretty much picked up a belter of a motor and hope to keep her that way too. I'm not looking to race her so much, but will enjoy taking her out on meetings and getting the welly down of course adhering to the posted speed limit and remaining a courteous driver.

    Have loved the Audi brand since my B2 80 then my C3 100 both 1.8's and basic as you like, but these motors took me from north Germany to just past Dundee several times over without missing a beat, and that was me. Since then I've had a few..

            All cozied up for the short "slow" journey











            Not sure, but I think the yellow and black lines on the floor really shine off the side panels, but that was about to change once in UK....

              Not sure, but it may be possible this was the first time to cross the border...hope not, but also would be good for me to bring her into Scotland first time....

                More pictures will follow, just going to enjoy her as much as possible and wait for the weather to improve slightly....I hear that we are going to be hit with an almighty snow storm, she'll be all tucked in with a water bottle and blanket...

                    Cheers Eric, been a long time coming, and a longer time waiting for one of these machines, seen one at the Audi forum Ingolstadt and in this colour too, was well impressed and I even think it was the saloon version....
