[s-cars] Open call for info: Audi TDI, B5 chassis

[matt ludwig.]

Oh man Dave....... I hope you are wrong too! : )

This would be a painful one to learn, but I trust your reply's to  
anything AoA with the most value! This is really shocking to me, if  
100% the reality, but more painful to learn my diesel options are even  
*more* limited than before. : ( Just because I have your ear for a  
moment; are their any other options to consider that may fit the  
description I laid out originally, that were imported to Canada?  
Wagon, 5/6spd, turbo diesel, etc.... ?

All thoughts welcomed!
