    Game:spot the ashes faults

    quattro faults for 1981
    I'll start.
    Painted boot spoiler-should be black unpainted rubber.
    Cheapo door decals- not the correct graded originals.

    Enjoyed the first one!
    How the hell would a DCI have such an expensive car? Just picture it now, DCI turns up in a B7 RS4!

    In the first shot of the side of the car when she's laying next to the window the quattro sticker did not look right but on the drivers side it was fine.

    Also thought that age car was supposed to have either the flat faced (coupe gt5s) front or the twin headlights?

      I noticed the decals were very small, like the later ones, "81 I'm sure were HUGE!

              True, but only the very first batch, I think GTI International coverted alot. By "81 factory right hookers were on the menu.

                  Anachronisms

                  Glenister has admitted that, like the parent series, there will be at least one anachronism. The Audi Quattro was not available in right hand drive in the United Kingdom in 1981, only in left hand drive. Glenister has commented "But who cares? It's a cool car.
