        Yeah bought another one the other day.

        It was a bargain at well under £2000 and came with the following spares:

        2 Doors
        2 rear Diffs 3b
        2 gearboxes 3b
        1 set of lights 3b
        1 new main rad
        1 starter motor

        Loads of other bits and bobs.

        its only done about 130K - its got 10 months MOT and tax till September.

        Bought this as a doner car though for me Project

        Hers a pic anyway (the red one is new):

          Car is still completely standard apart from a custom made 3" exhaust system, Engine is sound and only has pvc system problem (atm).

          Ohh and the break warning comes on every soften when you start it too.

          Apart from that its lovely, it pulls nice had hard (for stock) and there is no shaft play when you drop the clutch or change gear at very high revs.

          Just needt o find somewhere now where i can store it and start stripping it down.

          Cheers.

                Nice one Bo! Sub £2k is pretty silly money but if it's in need of some TLC then there aren'y many people willing to start playing with a rare and expensice 15 year old car nowadays...

                  i have a question bout the catch tank. u actually take away the oil fumes from the turbo line, getting clean air in the turbo and therefore in the engine. but that fumes also lubrificate the turbo. didnt audi calculated this lubrification in the ecuation? i hope i made myself clear...

                      No lubrication of the turbo is done on the journal bearings by the oil lines to the turbo.

                      Oil in the PCV would simply pass through the impellers.

                        Sounds like theres air/water in the brake fluid ... Change the fluid and have a good bleed @ all four corners, That'll sort it

                            The sad thing is. I went to see this car nearly 4 years ago, when it was for sale for £6500, and it looked mint. Although it did have the squeakiest tailgate I've ever heard. Those wheels were almost brand new then. The tail lights had just been changed too, to the 'red' ones Bo.

                            Oh BTW, the reg is supposed to be a personalised one. 52 = S2 I was told. I read it as Road Traffic Accident, so steered clear.

                            I had a go against it on the road about 3½ years ago. It didn't go too bad then, but no match for my car. :mischeif: Have you found a bleed valve yet Bo?

                              looks in great condition from the outside, sub 2k is a nightmare the used values are really taking a hammering, especially with that list of spares
