I'm not sure what the junkyard scene is like in Europe, but I am currently driving a 1999 Audi A4, and would love to get some Clear Euro headlights. If anyone came across a pair and wanted to make some extra cash I'd gladly compensate you for your time and effort!

Sorry, Hooniverse podcast was bashing Audi pretty hard today.
I was reading on the E90 forum how most warranty companies wont offer coverage for Audi's then yesterday traffic was stopped because of a broken Audi TT in the middle of the road
not to mention the 90/10 weight distribution and being overpriced Volkswagens1989 BMW 325is Lachsilber metallic 5 speed

By the way, i must ask you how is it living with a b5 a4? I've been passively looking at tdi wagons in the classifieds. I think they could make a good fuel efficient cheap dd, but i'm kinda scared about the maintenance and the handling. Do they feel massively nose heavy and understeer all over the place?Originally posted by kendoggDon't know, but the E90 wasn't designed from the ground-up intending to be a racecar like the E30 was.

My s4 handles pretty well, its no e30 but it isn't a super sloppy pig like many would like to claim. I'd imaging the 1.8 would be a little bit more nimble though.
Now, the only issue I have with Audi is the nickle and diming. My s4 has been reliable for 10,000 miles in 4 months, now up to 135k. That said, the car was very well maintained, and I already have a small list of things I need to do that have failed since I purchased it.
Already fixed: O2 sensor
Diverter valves
Need repair: RF outer CV boot
Air bag light has come on
All that said, the car hasn't let me down. The 1.8t is definitely the more reliable motor, and it is just that IMO. My friend has a mkiv Jetta 1.8t with 240k on the original engine.No E30 ClubOriginally posted by MrBurgundyAnyways, mustangs are gay and mini vans are faster than your car, you just have to deal with that.

Also, as previously stated, my Audi isn't going anywhere. I would be hard pressed to find a nicer 15 year old car with the same luxury/performance ratio and under 10grand.No E30 ClubOriginally posted by MrBurgundyAnyways, mustangs are gay and mini vans are faster than your car, you just have to deal with that.

Mine is throwing codes for needing a new 02 sensor on bank five, but it is driving fine and 02 sensors are rather spendy. I saw some s4 seats on CL I wanted to get but someone snagged them before me. I was shocked because they were in perfect shape and sport seats, only asking $150. Way cheaper than e30 seats.
