Re: Oil filters & quattros for sale

Geez Frank:  Can I get a job where you work??  Seriously, that is a lot of
nice machinery.  I tend to notice the 200TQs and I believe that 1200 were
imported in '91 and at least half are in Denver, Boulder, Vail and Aspen.
Colorado is indeed the place for them.  There is no (read absolutely none)
faster way to get to the ski areas than in a turbo Quattro.  Of course,
those nasty surabuS and sport utes do tend to get in the way.
