Having driven one of these many years ago and also seen Robs 'exploded 3d diagram' of his, I'm amazed the car didn't understeer like an Elephant on roller-skates!

White wheels for me Rob

 

Failing that, silver. Black they look lost in the arches and not helped by the body colour. And anthracite looks a bit odd and too modern for me.

I still like the Quattro in Red

Tornado Red or "competition white" for me.

Yep Tornado Red was always the colour I wanted. But the black has really grown on me, especially with the red interior.

 

And I never expected to be able to get an Ur quattro, this is the only way it could happen

This is available. Hmmm...

 

Oooh that's quite nice. Only people that matter will get it

I can't decide if a private plate is worth it or just a silly accessory. $669 I don't need to spend.

 

It currently has a random two letters and four numbers plate - which indicates nothing except it's old as they moved to 3+3 years ago.

 

Feel free to try ideas

Wow just typed in UR Audi and OO KIWI and they are both available as well as ROBS UR

 

 

 

So is RUSTYQ

So is RUSTYQ

 

Now that is tempting!

URQTRO is also available....

 

Using zeros for Os seems like cheating though. Pplates are pretty tacky to begin with

 

GT is nearly all stripped. Just need to get the steering rack and rear brakes off and it's going.

 

 

I'm done with the donor. Getting the metal recyclers to take what's left next week

 

 

Got my drive back

Picked up the Skoda from repair - they've done a good job. Visited the quattro too. Not started yet but definitely Monday
I met PJ at Just Rust today and he showed me a classic Porsche Targa car they're replacing the floor in, and an old Austin where they've fabricated a whole new floor. Good stuff.
Oh and the headlight lenses are done, should get them back soon.

Hi rob.

Do you want me to post up some pics of my Ur Quattro with the factory "zermatt silver" 8" Ronald, a set of anthracite rims (used too run them maybe 10 years ago) and a set in alpine white?

I played around with most of the colour combinations at one time or another but went back too the original factory colour as IMO they got it right first time.

Yes please! Pics are always good. You're right though, silver is the way to go.

Shinies!

I know I said I wasn't going to do anything non-essential but I couldn't resist this.

 

I think you should ring Jeremy Clarkson and claim to be his new Stig....or Hannu or Walter

Are you actually saying that Rob is a monkey? And if so when are you buying a quattro and changing your name to Michelle?

I would have loved to have been the new Michelle and I did have a Quattro of sorts a few years ago (proper 4x4 at least,not a Haldex)

 

Michelle + Audi Quattro = greatest ever female rally driver

 

Amanda + 3.0tdi Quattro = Some bint flogging up and down motorways

 

 

Ah, the sums don't add up :(
