A4 2.5 quattro sport

[nanafagis]

Now then, I never got round to posting my car when I first bought it, so i thought i'd post a few snaps of it now that it's broken.

4 months ago when I bought it....











....and then after an incident involving snow and a lamp post



The picture doesn't really show the extent of the damage. Luckilly it's all just panel damage and a headlight. I was waiting to turn into a side street, slightly down hill, and it just slid on it's own weight into a lamp post. Shocking how much damage can be caused from such a small/less than 5mph bump.

lovely car by the way, at least it looks repairable, hope you have it back soon

[nanafagis]

oh there's always one who's done things bigger and better!

I can't see the pictures in your thread but read the comments. Sounds pretty bad. Hope you recover soon.

Yea mine's repairable, just panel damage and a cracked headlight, plus it's an opportunity to get a couple of scuffs sorted on the back bumper while it's in. But i'm having trouble replacing the fog lamp grille as its no longer in production

Car looks spot on!! (before the damage, of course)

RS4 alloys look great on it!!

Cheers, nice 197 in your profile pic, especially in white. Is that yours?

Was mine, sold it about a month ago

Is that standard Audi bodykit? S-line version?

[nanafagis]

It's called a 'Votex' kit. As far as i'm aware it is/was a factory audi kit - an alternative to the Sline but it stopped being made a couple of years ago. My car is S-line badged though?? Somebody may be able to correct me on that.

I prefer the kit to the Sline - i saw one when the B6 was first released, but haven't seen many around since.

I looked for ages for a 180bhp quattro sport/Votex kit combination and just stumbled across this randomly one day after i'd almost given up. The only other one was in N Ireland

Ahh, I see!

I havn't seen many with it! Which always adds to the appeal!
