Personally, I wouldn't bother. The quattro Coupe is an attractive
enough car in its own right, and fairly rare. If you insist, I believe
Aelred down at Dialynx is the only person seriously into making Audi
cars look like what they're not.
I saw a Coupe on the M25 a month or two back with a body kit on one
side but not on the other. Looked pretty weird - was he interrupted
during fitting?
The CLub newsletter lists a WR 1983 with 87000 miles at GBP4500 - if
you're a competent mechanic who's patient enough to do it properly,
the older WRs can be quite good cars. There's a 1987 (with over
twice the mileage) at GBP6500 and a 1985 at GBP5250.
Those who worship 20Vs should note that a 1990 Pearl White is for sale
at GBP17500 and an MB (two years older) is GBP16000 - pro rata on
depreciation, the MB has held its value better. If, of course, it
sells at that price.
