Title: Audi A4 1.9 TDi 130 (6 speed box)
Post by: marko on March 06, 2008, 01:54:52 am

Some problem with the tappets being too tight on our 'nearly new' Ford Focus (6 years old and only 26,000 genuine miles on the clock) meant that it needed a major engine job to replace burned out valves, with no guarantee that the problem would not re-occur. To say I was disappointed would be a massive understatement.

I managed to get a top trade-in price for it, fooked engine and all (salesman didn't ask, so I didn't mention it) and broke the bank buying a 4 yr old Audi with 58,000 on the clock.

I've wanted an A4 for as long as they've existed and figured they would never fall into my price range... hard work and patience do pay off sometimes...

The sweetest car I've ever owned... all that's left to do now is pay for thing  :)

Ouch!

Nice looking A4.
Has it got those hooks to hang your jacket in the back?!

Steering wheel's on the wrong side. ;)

Looks like it's on the right side to me.

Sweet ride.
I was thinking about buying one of those for a while - nearly bought one a year ago (slightly older model though).
