Hi Christopher,

a warm welcome! Do you have a bit more details for us? Where are you from? Which color specs does the car have?

Being curious

Regards

Bastian

Yes a few details
117 k miles with a fully stamped book, body colour is nautic blue metallic, with nautic blue leather,
16 inch bbs alloys, it has been in storage for a few years , so i have changed the thermostate and flushed the coolant, new temp sender, and oil/filter this week end with a plug change[denso], fuel filter,k/n air filter and some investigation in to a 2.5 bar oil pressure reading hot and cold ,no noise from the engine so i will change the sender, and then i think a cam belt change for good measure, oh and i have the gearbox dip stick and gasket on back order from audi, othe r than that it has been a lovely car to drive around in , been to glasgow and back already[live in shrewsbury],much quieter than my 200q avant

Welcome to you

Ireland? Nice
are there more V8 on the road?

Hi Christopher,

Welcome!
Is that the Shrewsbury in the neighbourhood, well, more or less, of Birmingham? Some 275 Miles to Glasgow then, one way.

regards, Eric

yes that shrewsbury, car ran like a dream ,very quiet, a little unsettling to begin with, just change the oil/filter/plugs lots of oil,,,

oh f**k... my poor geographic knowledge

Dear Christopher,

we've imported three Audi V8 from UK to Austria, all RHD, one 3,6 and two 4,2. One was from nearby Birmingham, from Wirksworth in Derbyshire, the other one was from Eastbourne in the south and one was from Ashford, Kent. Yep, from the home of the last Connolly factory

Are you aware of http://www.classic-audi.co.uk/ ?

Best regards

Bastian

Hi, Christopher

I'm a fellow V8 owner. I live up in Glasgow with 2 of my 3 V8s.

Hi Mark, didnt know you were up there,, is that one of your v8s at coxys place?

Hi Christopher

Yes, that would be mine.
t's a long story that started started out easy.


Feel free to give me a pm, exchange numbers. I've got the US version of the maintenance manual, and have made blink cables for the codes for mine.

Hi again Mark, home number is 01743 241635,
my motor is boringly reliable at present, just put 1k on it in the last month, sure that will alter, old motors always want something.
Give me a phone on sat /sun if you fancy a chat,
chris
