[V8] thinking of selling

I completely agree with your sentiment Roger....I was close to letting
my pearl '92 V8Q go as I was with a woman that constantly complained
about it...the radio doesn't work, the locks don't work right, the  
gas lid
opened on it's own...needless to say, it was in that shape due to her  
using
it as a day driver with no attention paid to it on her part.

One year later...divorce is done and the V8 is still in the garage.  The
best choice I've ever made.  The new lady in my life (not the car in  
this case)
has a decent appreciation for Audi and is becoming quite fond of the  
ol' girl.

To this day I wish that I had kept my '87 4000 CSQ and my '95 90 CSQ  
if not
just to turn each into a weekend racer.
