Audi 80cl & 90cd

[Sat90]

Well, the wheels are finally done. Had them refinished in Audi champagne silver for the centres and BBS silver for the barrels.




Still looking at adaptors but will see how wide or narrow I can go once the wheels have been offered up to the car.

Lovely cars mate, remind me of my childhood as my Dad had both of those.

I don't remember much about the 80 apart from the fact it was the gold. The 90 was an auto and was the "CD" model- does that actually mean anything?!

How were these regarded in the 1980s eg similar to Saab as a slightly oddball choice?

[Sat90]

CD was usually a higher spec, mainly given to the 5 cylinder cars. They were regarded as posh Volkswagens to be honest. They only really came into the fore as rivals to Merc and BMW in the 90s and 2000s

So....................















This happened

And we have tyres

[Sat90]

So....I found these.......




Once I've whacked some tyres on and a couple layers of clearcoat, they'll be fitted as they're direct fitment with no spacers or any other gubbins.


Now, what to do with the BBS RKs.......
