    Is it just me that has visions of you keeping a slightly lower rent version of this lovely lady under a blanket on the back seat, ready to drape herself over your bonnet everytime you park?

    Nice to see it's already warning you about the impending costs too...

    Well i set off in search of the holy grail a TI-Z and even though i found 2 for sale a nice shiny red V6 or a nice shiny yellow 2.0 the sheer price of them scared me off

    but while i was looking round i found this Q4 and seen as it should be totally rust free and its nice and shiny and only done approx 75,000 miles (128,000 km) and i managed to get it for a good price i thought what the hell

    I can always get it registered and sell it
