you can't drive home is definately not work paying for.  I found my 86 4KQ
for $1000.  The car was in great condition, having few dings and needing a
new brake job.  I say skip it and go straight for a new S4.  =)

So that's what I've been doing wrong all thse years! I guess I should not
have bought the 1969 BMW R-50 with 4,000 original miles on it for $250
because the front wheel was bent and I couldn't drive it home. Or the 1968
Munch Mammoth showing 497 miles for $2,000, which had a dead battery. Or
the 1967 Cessna 150 for $4,000 because the starter was bad (or does that
not count because I had to fly it home, not drive it?) Or the car I've been
driving for five years now, a very nice 86 5Ks for $400 - broken rod,
arrived by towtruck.

Personally, I LOVE stuff that doesn't run! It scares off all of the casual
buyers, and there are some REAL DEALS to be had out there. Remember, retail
is for other people!

Right now, I'm looking at a maroon 89 100 for $350. Flawless body and grey
leather interior, needs a change of stale gas - why so cheap? Seller lost
the West Virginia title. I'm going to bid $200 and see what happens.
