Coupe quattro rescue

[Spinner]

the ass is always the essential part of an Audi.....

avant vs sedan....(who wants a boring old boot).... 

type 85 vs 89....(that flat wall of the 85 was the first part of a coupe i ever saw when i went to one of the special stages of a rothmans rally in the Domain back in my teens...lust at first sight!!!)

so its all in the ass!!!

fortunately mine has 2...the rear end and the driver!!!!!

I know a little bit about them, yes you can fit electric regs but you will need the wiring loom and switches to go with it, what lights are faulty? Headlight switches crap out every now and then just like on my 80 quattro

the main lights?park lights.got dims and bright and only the push works on the brights they dont stay on by them selves

Thats what my 80 does atm, will more than likely be the headlight switch

Benni, if i could choose to have electric or manual windows,I'd go for the winders mate... that's just me though. As the manny ones won't kack out in the long run...

Get a new Missus.

easy now thats my missus ur talkin bout but ive told her that im  not going to fit the electric ones and afta a bit of a squable she got over it,its just that the drivers side window is not working and when you want the window down you have to lean over to the passengers  side and wind that one but i dont really care bout the windows when im drivin the car makes up for it.
