                    time to first drive ever in this car has finaly come !

                    here is a few video from first drive !







                    than I find out that my last shock absorber is totaly DEAD..
                    few days latter I find used BILSTEIN B6.













                    after that pictures I have to change steering rack because they start to leak.
                    thanks to God that there was one in perfect condition in Bosnia. went there for them!
                    sorry but I don't have pictures from that job.
                    LPG sistem was back in car and everithing now work perfekt , acept central locking , but that will be fixed too in a few weeks .
                    now we have 68cm of snow fallen in 2 days...for tomorow 30cm more they said on news.
                    my town didn't saw snow like that since 1862. and of course I still don't have garage.
                    so my S8 must wait for a while !

                    than licence plate and rollll

                          here is few pics of snow..good thing is that yesterday was shiny , but today snow is falling again.





                          compare to the 200 20v or s4/s6 rack from a8 is piece of cake. I need few hours to take them out. but on audi 200 I need whole day in best case!

                            Yeah the type44/C4 racks look like a real PITA to replace aswell.

                            Don't you need to get out in one of your q's now?
