At "Sanctuary" at the start of the Ridgeway
At Silbury Hill, the largest man made mound in Europe, from 4750 years ago:

You must have that car garaged to keep it in that sort of condition, Pimp? Isn't a "C" plate a 1985 model?

No, it is kept on the drive. I spent about 3 hours cleaning it on Saturday.
It was in a field for two years too.
It is an Audi, legendary build quality.
I also use it for 500 miles a week when the other is being serived, or I fancy a change.

German technology, eh? You can't beat it.  It's in bloody good nick though. When your finished with it you might like to offer it to the Atwell Wilson museum.

Love the A8, from 1994-2002 ish. Looks like an A4, just a bit bigger, with a stormer of an engine.
TT is a gay hairdresser's car, the engine is in the wrong way (transverse) and it has a Haldex clutch rather than "proper" quattro drivetrain with Torsen (torque sensing) diff which is full time 4WD. Haldex is 2WD mostly, but clutches in the back wheels when needed. |

I quite like the Audi TT.  The Audis are very well built vehicles though.

It was my first ever car, I sold it and then bought it back. It is going to be a family heirloom one day. So, not it's not going to Atwell Wilson!!! Keep your eye on "Audi Driver" magazine May though......
Purple flake metallic, slammed on airbag suspension and chrome spoked wheels, and cow print interior.
Proper pimp!!!!
bit like this one:

Getting worse. Early 90s to late 90s cars were best, latest ones have suspension problems and rust underneath.
