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

[Ian Duff]

We're thinking of the new Jetta TDI Sportwagen for my wife, to replace  
her Eurovan. However, no AWD. Bummer.

TDI + wagon + AWD = winner. Seems like two outta three is all one can  
expect. Peloquin is the closest I've been able to find to AWD, and  
that's only available as a spendy upgrade.

TDIclub is the bomb. Be sure to check out tdiparts.com, as well.  
Founded by our own Dan Simoes, before he abandoned the forward  
thinkers among us for the Left Coast.
