Good to see another forum

Hello all,

I fell into D2s almost by mistake. Our Audi90Q died in 2009 and my wife spotted an unusual D2 PFL LHD 2.7 Diesel. Servotronic, blinds and more. We enjoyed it for many miles until somebody drove into it on a car ferry deck and pulled the front of the car off with his camper bumper. Some years in Passat limbo, but now back with my sort of Audi. Beautiful styling, excessive comfort, perfect handling and with the 2.8 not too thirsty and not too stressful on the autobox. Pictures when I work out how to do it.

See you around

Originally from Italy. Sorry, my error. 2.5L I was never able to insure it as a 2.5 but the previous owner's advice - insure it as a 2.8 - was good.

This 2.5 has been for sale for a while and the owner somehow managed to get it registered as diesel, interesting. high millage too:

I'd not noticed that one. Shame its FWD with the appalling blue interior.

It does have the front ridex calipers from autodoc it seems, and the ad states it comes with 2 sets of headlights for uk and eu but as we now know there is a toggle inside these headlights just for that.

Glad to be with more D2 ppl. I'm in Texas and love D2 A8 & S8s.
I enjoy the passion and helping others.
Glad to see another forum, quattroworld is where I started (actually audiworld, the audifans mailing list ages ago)
