[urq] The price of greatness

[Ingo Rautenberg]

Missed those!  My guess is someone offered a far more realistic price for
them (like a "Buy it now" kind of price) and the seller said OK.  I bought a
nice set last summer for ~$400  plus shipping with no regrets.  They are
extremely strong and lightweight and were used by AudiSport for their
off-road rallies.  As to the "worth" of Urq's -- it only makes sense as the
pool of available cars is diminishing, Audi's stature in the US is going up
and these cars are 20+ years old.  I wouldn't sell mine for even 10k -- and
it's not even worth that much $$ (unless I had a spare).
