Re: V8 Wagon ? NOT, but maybe a V8 lang ?

Ti,

Your probably correct, a 91 200tqw, they have flared fenders about
half the width of a V8's.  Frontend, standard 200 series.

But perhaps it may have been a V8 lang.

I have a jpeg picture if anybody is interested. 

The V8 Quattro has a wheelbase of 270 cm, the lang has a 
wheelbase of 301 cm.  The length of the V8 Quattro is 486 cm, 
while the lang is a leg stretching 519 cm

I believe I heard about these from Cobram....
