Quattros help parents sleep??

[Greg Spark <sparkg@wave.co.nz>]

I've got mixed feelings about youngsters having access to quattro. 

Having a structurally safe car such as an Audi is highly desirable, however
I think that a teenager would use the quattro handling advantage to go 
faster rather than enjoy the safety envelope provided when driving well
within the capabilities of the vehicle. I know I would have!

There's little doubt that when the adhesion limit of quattro is reached
vehicle speed is MUCH higher. I'd rather see them in fwd Audis.
