Audi Humor

[Brady Moffatt]

AAAACCKK!!

I've gone through this TWICE with the OWNER of a Bosch and Euro parts
distributor. He got a bit nasty too, and never said he was sorry when it
became obvious he was a moron. If it weren't for his sons and the other nice
employees, I'd never go back.

Mine went like this:
What car?
1983 Audi Quattro.
What model?
Just Quattro.
No it's not. What model of Quattro?
Just look it up. It's the only Quattro in 1983....

The second time I said 1983 Audi Turbo Quattro Coupe (which for some reason
didn't help. He ended up in the type 89 cq pages), and still somehow got the
model questions. And don't even think about calling it an UrQuattro!

It's frustrating on many levels:
1 I knew for a fact that in the listing, the car was called Audi Quattro,
exactly what I asked for the first time.
2 He owns the shop and has for years, so he should know better.
3 I hate dealing with morons.
4 It's even worse when they give you attitude.

Cheers,
