[V8] Is this the end?

 If it's far enough away Roger, then you should enlist the list to get it to you.

Buy it and everyone drives a leg towards you so we can all meet and you get your car ;)

It seems only fair since we're already enablers for your illness anyway!



 

As for justification of the idea... you're Roger, end of need for justification :)

John

    Now there is absolutely no way...as In NO WAY to justify my even being  curious about this. But for the past week or so I have been entertaining a  fantasy about acquiring 20V Avant #2.      The particular car is located an awful long way from me, but is supposedly  an "extra" car taking up too much space in the garage, yadayadayada.  Supposedly very well kept by the first owner, and supposedly has a huge  handful of repair receipts.     To many miles at 160k, but it is extremely clean looking, and I sense a  certain willingness to "negotiate" a sale.  Read:  despair?    Anyway, out of curiosity, what does one pay for such a thing in this day of  advanced age for these cars?    I am tempted to offer $1500 for the hell of  it, although in my heart of hearts the car is probably worth more than that.  It will cost me a bundle to ship it here anyway, too, and then I KNOW that  it will take a bunch to get it through inspection, and I don't care HOW good  it is....    So, what would be YOUR bid?

TQA #2 became available a week later, in well-maintained  condition (thanks, Peter S.), so I jumped on it. A few months  later it caught fire as I was headed home.  I literally had TQA   #1 back in the shop for estimates when TQA #3 became   available. It was also well-maintain and had some nice  mods (chipped, euro headlights, Bilstein? shocks; thanks  to Peter S again). Buying TQA #3 and selling TQA #1 would   cost less than getting TQA #1 running without those mods,  so I became owner of TQA #3.    I promised Peter I'd take better care of this one.    --  Kent McLean  '99 A4 Avant  '91 200 20V Avant #3  '94 100 Avant, sold  '91 200 20V Avant #2, up in smoke #2  '91 200 20V Avant #1,
