My *official* 1994 UrS4 V8 Avant introduction

[UrS4boy]

Nice Dave. It is nice being the "only one" in a market full of cookie cutter cars. Enjoy it. BTW, Roger M, is your guy for those hard to find LHD Euro parts in the UK. Email me if you need to reach him.

I contacted Roger M. today re: a few missing bits. Thanks Mario.

What are you looking for?

What are you looking for?

For starters the "32 Valve 4 OHC" plug wire covers are AWOL (I might be able to track those down) AND the "4.2" cover on the intake manifold runner length activation motor is cracked (I doubt it can be fixed). It is NLA in the parts system.

That and a new headliner for a metal sunroof avant. (NLA and difficult to remove and even more difficult (impossible) to ship).

[quattrostyle]

Hmm not the easiest parts to source and ship indeed

Dave, those V8 parts are not Urs4 specific. The first is found on the 3.6L/4.2L V8 and the second is found only on the '92-'94 V8 (4.2L ABH).

Nice one Dave.

Nice one Dave.

Thanks Nic and all others who have commented.


I drove "Blackbird" more yesterday (in the rain) and while it is slower than my RS2'd 93 S4 saloon, it is much faster than the 98 C4 A6 autobox quattro avant, which has now been sold. The V8 sound is crazy good.

And it is 1 of 1 in North America.

Found the 32 Valve 4 OHC plug wires at the shop that the seller used in 2010. Turns out he never went back to get them because he still owes a packet. <shakes head>. The shop owner is still p*ssed. (Hope he doesn't take it out on me if I get work done on the V8 avant).

Still looking for a good "4.2L" cover.

There is this nice black (ish) plus type headliner on fleabay:

Mega money but a low offer might get it if you approach them directly, it came from a late S6.

Looks interesting. Thanks for the heads up.

They have been breaking the car a while now and most bits were on 'offer' once at 30% off iirc, so I reckon you could go low on price and stand a chance,

They have/had the other black bits too, trim etc, but not sure if they still have it all.
