That'll be either one of the best or worst cars you'll buy. I've heard both sides. I honestly have a soft spot for them and this one is tempting

VAG electronics? Aren't they the modern version of Lucas...

That's why I said best or worst. These cars are either really good or attack your wallet. There seems to be no middle ground.

I'm intrigued by tires that are in "amazing shape". I've seen tires in good shape. I've seen tires in very good shape. I've seen tires in poor shape. But amazing shape?! This I gotta see.
I hope your friend didn't write that copy, because I envision a dude wearing a plaid suit with thick gold chains writing that line.

I prefer that my tires be round. It's an impressive shape, being the only shape with a circumference and diameter and all, but I wouldn't call it amazing.

Man if that were a V8 I'd be very interested

Wasn't it a W8 Manual that is out there in the wild? I think only a couple dozen in the USA.

Audi used the 4.2 V8 in the Allroad, never heard of a W8 but I don't pay attention often. V8 with a manual was done and they are not impossible to find. I think they are at the bottom of their depreciation curve now, good examples are already starting to rise. (50,000 mile pampered examples, not the 300,000 milers on the shady lots)

Ah yes I was thinking of the Passat Wagon, thanks for the correction.
