Hello, new member, just arrived. Long-term (over 20 years) D2 S8 owner and only had two.

The first was pre-facelift and had more options than you could shake a stick at.
This on 17" winter wheels, it had proper original 18" Avus for summer. Agate Grey.

Current is almost end-of-production but NOT an FE. Irish Green Pearl.

Still going strong, just passed it's MOT, only 2000 miles in that last 12 months. Advisories on worn/pitted front discs which seems to be pretty common as it's hardly been driven anywhere recently. But they work fine - especially with MJ's brake block installed. :mrgreen:

The bottom pic looks great. Where was that? I honestly can’t remember seeing a D2 on the road, I’m talking maybe a decade. I’ve only seen one A8 parked up in Edinburgh last year.

Castle Combe October 2016 at the now-defunct Audi Driver International track day meet, though only a brave few actually went on track.
I occasionally see other D2s around here, though when I first got one I didn't see another for literally several years, apart from car meets!

Its a shame that event died by the time I had mine track ready :( It would surprise a few people these days.
