  • Phew! My girls last day at work!

    After three long years of caring for & nursing this old girl through extreme torture and abuse it's finally all over.

    There were plenty of times when I never thought she'd make it, but today at 4:10pm we shot scene 8/64 and it was all over!

    There's not many 25 year old cars that could have taken that amount of sustained punishment and kept coming back for more but incredibly this one did!

    Here's me, a brave little car and some actor bloke!

                As an ex Audi mechanic I use to enjoy working on the Quattro's especially the road tests afterwards :D

                I was in AM Ilminster recently and hadn't realised how much a restored Quattro was costing these days!! :svengo:

                  Yea this show has pushed the values right up. Kudos who actually own the car have been inundated with ridiculous offers for this one.

                      When I had one it spent most of the time spilling it's guts on the road. About the most unreliable car I ever owned...still like them though ;)

                        We're just storing it til the show airs, then Kudos are planning to auction it off, so it'll probably end up in some crusty rich blokes private collection I guess.

                          Nice!!!!! Had an one of the old original X-reg Audi Quattro when I was younger, and I have driven Hannu Mikkola's around Donington Park for a few laps, again when I was a bit younger.

                          :D:D

                              Lovely, Daren.

                              Takes me back. Mine was white, no overstatement. Just said "QUATTRO" on the boot!! And what a great car to drive.
