As noted in this (rather educational) vid. I still have regret about the 996.2 4S that I came close to buying - it just wouldn't have worked with the kids at that time.

Blimey, stop with the fucking 'educational' Porsche videos - they contain the sort of trite info that anyone who has spent 20 years on car forums will already know
Re: The ebay thread
The S6 has RS6 running and running wnership costs without all the power. It’s a lovely quirky thing but never quite hit the mark imo.
The 4.0 tdi A8 though, lovely thing.
Dave!

Re: The ebay thread
A8 is almost the same as the Bentley though (underpinnings are literally the same), just a different engine, allthough tbf I’ve not had a V8 diesel yet so it’s not a hard no.
But regardless, nothing’s happening until (lack of) sobriety intersects with eBay opportunity in the right (wrong) way.

Re: The ebay thread
If they'd fitted the engine from that A8 to the 957 Cayenne, I think I'd be perfectly happy with one of those.
And I'm not planning on doing the conversion myself
Re: The ebay thread
the first car I drove regularly after I passed my test was my Boss's 4.2 V8 Petrol A8. I used to drive him to Luton on a Friday afternoon and have the car for the weekend and then collect him on the Monday.
Half day every Friday and a fully fueled A8 for the weekend - Nice...

Don't know which description is worse, the "AI" one or the seller's.

Yes, you're right, it's not a massive sack of baggy handling shit driven by terrible people - as discussed in here recently as I recall - that comes with the wrong engine fitted because it's a replica.nuttinnew wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2024 6:07 pmYeah but it's no https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134975236336 ...

Nice try, but as ever, Cavaliers are shit.Replica Based on 1.6Lx
Re: The ebay thread
Do the transmission tunnels always take up most of the front legroom in Sierras?
Re: The ebay thread
Quite possibly, but I think the carpet/floormat combo is making it look worse than it actually is.
Re: The ebay thread
I’ve always wondered if Beany has ever been in a Sierra…
