RS2 America

[saltinot]

I hope everyone is having a happy new year so far. I've been busy with a new job at a new company and haven't had much time, not to mention parts, for the RS2. I did however get a nice surprise Christmas present from my lovely wife. A car cover for the RS2.

She called a car cover store in California and told them what type of car she needed a cover for and they said "oh yes, we know what that is....it's the same cover as an Audi 80 avant". Very cool.

I may ask to swap my girlfriend for your wife if you dont mind as my girlfriend just moans about more money and time being spent on the car.... If yours is buying bits for you then she is a goodun! hahahaha

Im not selling my car if we cant afford the house lol... She will have to go, along with the house.

@Tom - could you perhaps provide the details of this store - I'm struggling to find a decent fitting cover for my RS2
Thanx - much appreciated

The cover was purchased from:

Car-Covers.com
1281 Franquette Ave, STE C
Concord, CA 94520

My wife had nothing but good things to say about them. Good price, cable lock, storage bag, and free shipping. They even threw in 3 microfibre dusting cloths.

She's a saint to put up with me and my car adventures.

Cheers for sorting that out for me.

She's a keeper. I realized that the first time I took her to dinner. You need to explain to yours that at least she knows where the money if going.........not down a rat hole at the pub or strip joint. That might put it in perspective for her.

Funny thing is that she has been bugging ME to get a cover for it. She's probably just tired of hearing me complain about the wee ones dragging their little fingers down the side of it every time the pass.

A bit overrated though for a car in a garage

I ended up ordering a car cover for a B5 Avant and it fit the RS2 perfectly. I didn't think I'd be able to find one for a B4 Avant let alone an RS2 in North America.

Car covers

If any of the Irish forum members want one of these covers for their bus just let me know and I can bring it home with me next week. I'm actually in Concord (San Francisco) for the next two days on business, this place is only a mile from my hotel. Small world!
To our UK buddies drop me a message if you're interested. I am limited by weight flying home to Ireland but if I can save y'all some postage ill gladly help.

Thanx a stack Tom - much appreciated
