My Q4 :D Previously owned by Bug187 (some may remember him), it neds a lot of work but was reasonably priced, so I have a new project1 :D

Looks good Wrinx, nice wheels and a decent number plate as well. So are there any major jobs need doing? or is it just regular TLC.

Are those solid headrests I see in that car? That makes it an even rarer Series 2 car.

I remember Bug from the old AO boards, he always seemed abit of a weird one to me, invited him on here a few times but he never showed his face if I remember correctly.

Have fun with your new toy.

Cheers Steve :

It's got a RED leather interior at present...not to my taste but I've got a black set in the V6 that will be transferred over...I'll replace the black lexarse lights with originals too!

It needs a fair bit of TLC and I think a new steering rack as it's making some dodgy deep creaking noises! :lol:

Rear arches are just starting to bubble and it needs a damn good polish.

Want to do a few mods such as dump valve, chip, and decat, aiming for about 250bhp as it feels very sluggish at present.

There's a boost gauge reading minus boost which is confusing me atm :roll:

True, even on half boost it put a smile on my face ;)

Trouble is I'm giving up a V6 for it....and that SOUND is something you never forget :D

wrinxThat's why you need a V6 as well, might not be as quick as the Q4 but the SZ still provides that V6 sound track :lol:

As much as I would LOVE to keep the widebody V6 I can't :( I've nowhere to store it and I wouldn't leave it outside, also can't afford to keep more than four cars :roll:

Don't think SWMBO would allow me three toy cars :oops: :lol:

Don't worry, they've gone already, as have the black lexus rear lights ;)

This will be fairly standard looking...apart from the Savali style bootlid ;)
