Today with a heavy heart I said goodbye to my 1995 Audi 90 Quattro Sport
after 5 years of ownership. As much as I loved the car it really was time
to let it go after years of what I have come to now realize was an abusive
relationship. The proverbial straw that broke the camel's back for me was
the realization that I would be going on my 4th transmission since
purchasing the car almost 5 years ago to the day (April 1st, 2000). That and
the major oil leak which has gotten much worse with the warmer weather. The
car had 244,880 kms. In the end, it was the very mechanic who worked on my
car for the past 5 years who bought it. Given that he is aware of the
numerous problems I've had with the car I feel better selling it to someone
who is aware of the history and its current problems than someone from the
general public.
Today I took delivery of a 1998.5 A4 1.8T 5sp Quattro with 150,000 kms. The
car belonged to a very good friend I've known for nearly 20 years who
recently purchased a 2005 S4.
I would like to say thank you to everyone for your help and insight during
the past few years. I have not been a very active poster but I have read
each and every post over the years, many from which I have learned a lot.
I am really going to miss you guys and your seemingly infinite wisdom! You
are truly a great bunch of guys!
Happy 12v motoring!
T. Jackson :(
