    Ridiculous, these car things of ours...

    So I take my 2007 Audi A4 in for its 95k mile service, have them do all of the work, and then I leave with a 2014 Audi A4 sticking the dealer with the bill for the repairs on the '07.



    One day I will bring my car in for service and not buy a new car. That day is not today.

    The nice thing about all the new Audi's and VW's is scheduled maintenance is free for the life of the car.

    Urg, first it was health insurance, then beer & vodka and now bloody Audis. I thought this was a DeLorean forum!

    J/k, obviously.

    Looks like a nice car there Chris. I quite fond of A3s and A4s.




    Lunch would have been cheaper though

    I don't always drive cars, but when I do, I prefer DeLoreans

    No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

    Audi's are Deloreans of today. Their cutting edge innovative extras are fascinating. Plus they would look awesome in SS!
    I came across a new one in Germany (it was dark and he was driving above 240Km/H) no idea what modelit was.
    What amazed me was that the headlights were just a strip of leds!!!!!
    I was amazed of the light that small strip gave out. Like a regular H4 XENON lamp.

    Enjoy your ride buddy and avoid walking out the showrooms when you bring your car for services.

    IT'S A SILVER CAR WHICH MEANS IT'S CLOSE ENOUGH OK

    Thanks though. And yeah Lunch would have been cheaper, but Lunch was already going to be lots cheaper than what I was already supposed to spend yesterday NOT counting the new car.

    Did you get a manual shift transmission? I think I see the quattro emblem on the grill. If I recall, you can only get a manual shift in a quattro driveline. And by that I don't mean you cannot get an auto in a quattro.

    Between my wife and I, we've had 4 of these combined since 2006. I'm not sure if that's good or bad. Granted one of them was a lease...

    You can't get Quattro with a CVT transmission, but you're perfectly able to get a Tiptronic with Quattro. So yeah, you definitely can get an automatic transmission Quattro.

    Mine is a 6 speed manual, however.
