    I started a computer systems engineering degree when I was 25. I know what you mean about feeling old, but I wouldn't have had the focus to get a first if I'd started earlier. If I found enough money not to have to work I'd do another degree at the drop of a hat. Something along the lines of what you're doing would be high in the running too.

    I quite like it.

    It doesn't look familiar.

    No pics of the engine bay?

    I wouldn't worry too much. I don't buy a car based on mileage, but on condition. There are plenty of other buyers out there that are the same. You have to look after a car to make it to 200k.

    Words fail me.

    WTF?!

    Weren't they a 2.7L twin-turbo? I won't pretend my knowledge of the Audi range is all that extensive. EDIT...beaten to it!

    I paid £70 for a complete set-up, including new discs and pads, about two years ago. That was very cheap at the time though. I'm sure they'd be worth £100 to someone.

    That totally sucks, but I think your obviously trusing-nature has cost you the 'plate and the £80. I can't see that this will end well.

    There's no evidence of that being a public road. In fact it might not even be me. Point taken though :)

    Mods better make space for a 'breaking' thread soon.

    Can of worms = open.

    The top one looks better to me, by a long way.

    I know it's easy to say, but go easy on your old chap. I mean, sh*t happens and it's not like it was malicious damage. I remember some years ago my dad dropped a strimmer from the garage loft onto my brand new CBR600 and dented the tank. I'm sure your dad feels pretty bad about the whole thing. I hope you get it sorted with the minimum of grief.

    That sort of thing used to happen to me in my 16v all the time. I'm glad I sold that car...the constant female attention just got boring in the end :)

    Considering the amount of time you've been looking for this plate, it'd be easier to change your name (or your car)!

    I reckon a 110 Defender with a 200TDI engine and a roof tent is the safest option...and probably the cheapest. My mate has had a few 101s and I certainly wouldn't want to travel *too* far in one.

    Quite frankly, I don't believe a word of that. I'm fully prepared to be proven wrong with some evidence though. I can't seem to find a definitive answer anywhere.

    I really can't see the point in having a 'performance' car and being bothered about fuel consumption. I spend more time seeing how *low* I can get the economy!
  21. bcstudent
    Uh hu....suuuure. I bet that's what he tells his mates in the pub too.

    If you want to think *complex* think Honda or Toyota. My Seat Leon Cupra costs me no more to run than my Corrado did, and it's got close to twice the power. Do you have a reference for that statement? I've heard people say it before, but I fear it's one of those things that gets told by mates in the pub.
  23. bcstudent
    Maybe dark grey isn't the right colour. Silver may work better.
  24. bcstudent
    I agree - not a great look.
  25. bcstudent
    I bet that would be the most horrible thing imaginable to drive...but DAMN it looks good!
