          what's the story with this place Craig? These cars can be fiddly to sort and its a nightmare finding anyone near me who knows these cars. Usually the first thing they say when you tell them its a a S2 is "you mean S3"

              james lundy has come out for our audi trips in the past, mike - he is a first class gent of some advanced years ( ) and with a wealth of experience in every type of classic car you can imagine. luckily enough, he specialises in amongst other things, classic audis - he performed most of the work on my old 90q 20v and the quattro and was a breath of fresh air as nothing but bodgers and folk unfamiliar with these cars had attempted work on my audis up to that point.

              delighted to hear that's he's back in action again.

                            Thanks for the info. I know where to go when my very limited expertise wont get the job done. Finding someone enthusiastic with knowledge and the right tools ain't easy up here.

                              no, he's not coming on sunday as i presume he's far too busy setting up shop and getting his new business going just now, but i have no doubt he will attend once things settle down again . . .
