For any interested parties, this car has NEVER had a dog in it. The ‘dog guard’ is in fact a factory fit retractable net which is used to prevent any items in the luggage bay from being propelled forwards in to the passenger area should the driver have to brake harshly. It also has mud flaps fitted from new which has helped to protect the paintwork from ‘road rash’. Finally, the gearbox has been serviced twice at the specified intervals. It has never used a drop of oil between annual servicing which was carried out by an Audi specialist who updated the Audi Electronic Servicing database.

Had one of these for 15 years, suspension is generally too hard and can be skippy on bumpy uk roads. Michelin PS4 then PS5 helped a bit, didn’t gel with the contisports before. I am running stock suspension with custom geo, camber pins at the front pulled to dial out the front end push and less toe to make it rotate more sharply. A front oem strut brace and eventuri intake are my only other tweaks. It’s a car which comes alive when you rag it out, terrible at slow speeds, gearbox notching unless revs higher and fun fun fun when pressing on in second and third on some B roads.

Sound doesn't really come into it with a big diesel like these, although, I wasn't really a fan of the 'speaker in exhaust' in the Audi. Reliability, I'm going to say the 340d, but really only down to having more experience with the BMW though and the fact the Police stopped using the Audi's due to gearbox issues and parts costs will be very similar.

I do think everything is just how it ought to be. do suggest the the wing would be better off in the garbage and just the ducktail would be such a fitting end to make the last visual que that it was a track car and make it the 996 sleeper plus it would be even more bueatiful than it already is. outstanding job guys!! cheers

HI Gregory!! Thanks so much for following it all the way though. Just like most of these projects, we've had our ups and downs with it, but delighted we're out the other end. As much as it's now available for sale, I hope to have some seat time in the car before it finds a new home. Yeah, I get you with the wing, and I would love to change it for something thats a bit more in-keeping with the 996, but our spend on the car has been substantial and we really don't have any budget left to start working on the aesthetics now unfortunately. We'll leave that to the next owner to decide! Stephen
