ah it feelsgood to join another four rings forum OOOO ...

wait a minute, transverse engines? TRANS-VERSE? whats going on here then?  V...W? you what?!?!

No i havent wandered in to the wrong forum I just thought it was about time we had a bit of cross-marque platforum sharing! (geddit - platforum? never mind...)

I just joined to use the Mk2 forum knowledge base, as me Audi 80 Sport uses the same 8V engine, and the other forums i use (www.audifans.net and www.quattroforum.com) dont have a lot of 80Sport owners in them - not that many sports left now.

just thought id take the liberty of announcing myself here to as i enjoy chatting all things VAG - the older the better!

looking forward to chatting to you all soon

thanks guys - trying to load a little pic to the side (goes over there<<<<) but wont do it - do i need to have a reference to a website or something?

han - you had a quattro turbo? one day i'll have one, one day! for now ive got to get my coupe quattro (NONturbo) on the road - got some more bits today so wont be long now! makes a helluva noise with the 5 cylinders.

martyn - yes a 1.8T is the same - again another great VAG engine.  they know how to make them.  although watch the video on forge motorsport - the air box collapses on the 1.8T when its topping out! (think its a TT)

slick - id be in uncharted territory with the diesels too!

heres a photo of the 80 back when she had seen better days ...
