a new addition

[Livolsi, Stephane]

Once more into the abyss.....

Just inked the deal for the Red 88 5KTQ Avant.

$4800 Canadian - yeah, it is a bit high....

To recap:
240,000 kms (barely broken in, eh?)
bodywork is almost perfect
Euro lights with clear corners
full service records from day 1
always maintained by Audi shop and everything that went wrong was fixed
properly (apparently)
second set of wheels with new studded winters
decent tread left on summers
cd player
leather seats
hydraulics are full of pentosin (slight leak though)
antifreeze is blue (that's the right color,eh?)
It has some sort of sunroof wind deflector that my 86 5ktq doesn't have and
that one is quite noisy.  Anyone know, is that standard for 88?
Interior in excellent condition
everything works except for air cond

vendor originally offered with Thule rack but I lost that in the
negotiations.  What are they worth, in case I get to make him an offer when
picking it up?

Now I just have to keep myself together until I can pick it up next weekend
- 8 god awfully long days from now!! unless I can arrange a ride this
weekend. (it's about 500 kms away.)

The stable is growing:

88 5KTQ Avant
86 5KTQ Sedan
84 5KT Sedan (parts car - soon to go to the recycler)

Giggling like a schoolgirl,

Stephane
