allroad creeper gear?

[Keith Lawyer]

My understanding is that the Canada models have the
low range.  I know US models currently do not. 
According to one Canada Audi dealer, they will not
sell you a new Canada model if you're a US citizen,
but they can sell you a used one.  I know this sounds
like an "urban legend" type thing, not sure if this is
true.  
   But I figure in 10 yrs or so q-listers will be
importing low-range conversion kits just as regularly
as we now get eurolights :-)  BTW, the reduction isn't
that much, was 1.4 or 1.6:1 - can't recall --- but I
suppose it's plenty of reduction for anything you'd
want to do in a relatively low-slung car.
