Alright, as promised, now that I've put the summer tyres on the rims, I've taken a few pics and here's the thread about it.
It's again a 1997 Audi A4 and before anyone says that I'd have to have bought something else since I totalled the previous one, I have to say I'd probably be quite dead if I hadn't been in the Audi, so you can take a hike.
The engine is a 1.8 I4, like the old one, producing a massive 125 horsepowers and 173 torques, but seems to be in better shape as I'm getting about 1 litre / 100 km less than the old one.
The rest of the car looks to be in better condition as a whole, only sign of damage are a few dents from hale and a few scratches on the corners of the bumpers (not done by me).
Some time during its life (before being imported from Germany) it had its suspension replaced with a bit sportier, that makes it 5 cms lower and gives it a few cms wider track which makes the handling miles better. On the other hand, I feel every single little imperfection in the road and driving on an old potholed road is quite bad. But it doesn't rattle or creak at all, which is quite odd for a 13 year old car.
No wood this time, only a weird CF copy thing, which I don't like at all and am looking to get it replaced with either the wood I had before or a laquered black wood/plastic (piano wood ftw). I'll post pics of the interior a bit later when I get the steering wheel, shift gator and handbrake dressed in leather and have it deep cleaned.
Also, 16" OZ Hydra rims and 205/55-R16 as from yesterday!
