    Tropical green 2.6 Coupe

    I got this car by doing a swap with Pete (Acidburn) as it is the same colour as my S2 coupe. I was gunna scrap it and keep the panels/spares for my car but its to good to scrap
    I decided it would be a good car for my girlfriend to drive but we have found out she is pregnant so a coupe isnt the best car so im gunna sell it and get a 80 estate.

    The car is a Audi 96 N reg 2.6 Coupe
    Tropical Green.
    Non sunroof.
    10 spoke alloys, 2 as new front Goodyear tyres
    146K, History up to 126k.
    MOT Till 22nd December 2013
    Tax Till end of May
    S2 interior (lumber support on front seats)
    Wood trim.
    Ive just done the cambelt, tensioner, thermostat, antifreeze.
    Nearly new exhaust system.

    Ive done lots of work on the car getting it up together and throught the MOT.

    It failed on small things like slight corrosion on front disc (been sat for a while) Radiator fan didnt work, fan seized and blew fuse, replaced with a s/h unit from my stores
    Fuel lines slightly corroded (all rubbed down, treated and painted now)
    Hazard switch sticking (metal tab from radio cage stopping switch from returning)
    Front shock weak/loose in strut (replaced with a good s/h unit) from my stores again
    New wiper blades fitted.

    Other things like central locking not working (new pump)
    No plate lights not working (wiring fault)
    Water leak from badly fitted windscreen trim.
    Front bumper mounting points weak so ive reinforced /repaired with metal strips.
    Interior light (blown bulb and bad conection)
    Loose interior trim (no all secure)
    Cleaned and polished.

    Bad points.
    Autocheck doesnt switch off/ puts brake warning symbol on (i know its ok as ive fitted a known to be good brake bomb)
    The car smells like its running rich (i will be trying to fix it this week)

    The car can be driven away

    Looking for as close to £1000 as possible but will consider any offers for a quick sale.

    I will try and put some pictures up tonight, if you want some sooner send me you email address.

      All the V6 coupes I've had all had adjustable lumber support so not just an s2 thing

            My mistake, all the 2.6 saloons ive had have never had lumber adjustment

            It is an S2 interior tho as it came out of mine when i got RS2 interior
