Im in plymouth! rents in gloucester!
but born in Poole Royal! spooky

[DamianURS4]

Well JH, Plymouth isn't that far from Beautiful, stunning Dorset....just head straight past Axminster, Lyme, change down at Bridport and then whore it up the A35 (there are those on the forum that use the A35 as a bit of a 'proving ground). When you see the stunning views and the signs for Lytton Cheney; that's my old stomping ground and then its straight into Dorch!
Lil' Bro was born in Poole, as were all of Big Bro's 'pogglers' - I too have had my fair share of visits, mostly related to playing on building sites as a kid, but later to look after their various networks.

I feel if you come and see it - you will leave with it but then I am hugely biased.

its a pretty easy blast up the south coast isnt it! unfortunately, my beloved pug 205 is suffering from monumental french'ness (also known as severe front end damage due to a snapped handbrake :/ ) and my mum who has to give the seal of approval, in terms of driving it, on any new family wagon is up in gloucester and still doesnt really grasp the idea of a powerful estate, going to have a long conversation with her tonight and try to explain the joy of them, theres an rs2 near us back at home in black which she seems to be interested in, but i think has forgotten their price!

2 days left on the auction...will just have to see where we end up!

Here's a great read on the longevity of the UrS4/S6 with AAN engine

Hey - Mr Audicted. Ninth post in 7 years. That's some world class lurking..

[S2central.net]

That UrS6 on eBay does look ripe pickings alright - judging by photos anyway.

[Error404]

or S-Express's S2 which is a well sorted minter, although did he decide to keep it in the end?

[rs2315]

Don't want to put a damper on this thread, but are any of these models that JH is looking at suffering badly from parts NLA??

We all know how good Audi are with the old stuff

JH mentions he wants to keep car a good while.

rs2315.

Well mines for sale for the right price but not for a couple of months. I've had a lot of work done on the car in the past 3 years of owning it.

Put a new head on it as the original one cracked between the valves.
It's been fully poly bushed
It's been lowered on H&R springs
Porsche brakes up front with 323mm discs
S4 V8 rear brake convertion running 300mm discs
RS2 front bumper
Black leather recaro front seats(need a matching bench for rear)

Plus loads of other things I have about 3 folder of receipts and bills to back everything up that has been done.

Like I say anything is for sale for the right price.

[DamianURS4]

would like to hear and see more of your car Lee.......
