quattro is a hit with CAR



For the uninformed and deprived, CAR magazine describes our beloved q not Q
(mind you) as a car which started on a gigh and lost the plot. But even today,
they say, this ultimate 20 valver is near untouchable on real roads. No Audi
since has had a fraction of the personality. The wide tracked fat tyred chassis
is safe, grippy, and capable; crisp too, thanks to the torsen, with iron (get
this) composure over the toughest terrain to match bank-vault quality. Hah!
little do they know about bank vaults! Then they add: the warble of 220hp 5 pot
engine and every drive is a tarmac stage.

Now did you know that poor engine access hurt their rally exploits AND Audi
never uses the Q in quattro, only the q.

IMO CAR is the only rag worth reading as opposed to looking at the piccies and
the specs. the latest edition is priceless.
