Huw,
Interesting point you make on the gender of the Audi 90.
I find it interesting that most men tend to think of their cars as
females, and most women tend to think of their cars as males -- only they give
them dopey names to semi-emasculate them.
Perhaps there is something in the human psyche that explains this
attraction. Do we humans, in fact, subconsciously want to mate with our cars?
Mate in our cars, sure, but with our cars?? That's a tough one.
Perhaps someone whose study of the human mind has advanced beyond
Psychology 101 can contribute their thoughts...

Personally, my study of cars and sex is limited to what I learned from the
movie "Crazy People"
Porsche -- It's a little too small to get laid in... but you get laid the
minute you get out.
Jaguar -- For men who want handjobs from beautiful women they barely even
know.
Volvo -- The're boxy, but good.
I'm not sure how the Volvo tag line relates to sex, but I am sure that
somebody, somewhere, does.
I'll get back to you on the hot start/no revs thing, but in the
meanwhile you might want to keep in mind that type 89 90Qs are mostly
boys, from what I've seen. You might want to stop calling him "her" and
see if that helps.
Great ride, by the way, I'm on my second now.
