Not many of them left in the UK now. I do know the filming of "Ashes to Ashes" got through a lot of spares (think they had the last door glass from Audi), although they did try to use standard Audi coupes dressed up to look like a Quattro for the riskier stunts.

I'm sure that the next time you see 'spider he'll buy you a beer, if not then I will.
Ooo rash promise...
I've just washed the car, that's the last time it will be clean for a few weeks, or months, or maybe until next year...
....I might just leave it 'till we decide to sell...

I already have 3, now at home eating a bit because the band playing now wasn't that good... and cleared the SD card... 111 photo's of just one band... the K5 clicks very fast I'm sure that the next time you see 'spider he'll buy you a beer, if not then I will.
Ooo rash promise...
And i'm glad the focus seems to be doing fine

Thank you all for the well wishes,
Had a drive up into the Dales to Hawes today, glorious weather, way too nice for taking pictures so contented myself with a pub lunch, double cheeseburger and chips washed down with a pint of Black Sheep Bitter. Just got back home ten minutes ago.
As for celebrating further I already had a trip out to Ripon on Tuesday for a Fish N Chip lunch and whilst there found a shop selling an 8 pack of Old Speckled Hen for £7, four of them dissapeared Tuesday evening and the other four last night so I think I'll leave the alcohol alone this evening

after yesterday's highs I was expecting warmth today again. Only 21C! Ah well, tomorrow's a day off - after today's bank holiday - so I'll be painting and sorting other stuff out, prepping for the summer as I'll have three weeks, much of it with the car in pieces, but then I need to get done what I say I'm going to get done!
