[s-cars] Rusty Hatches (Avant content)

[JenRob]

I too was lucky to get my rusty hatch (thanks NY state) replaced by Audi for 
"perforation." Bill was right- there was a lot of discussion regarding tha 
definition. Also correct on the rough cost for a new one. I too snuck in 
within a month of the warranty expiring.- rob a
