its a 1.8 T s line, salesman said it wasnt a quattro but according to the audi  website the 2wd has a 5 spd box and the 4wd has the 6 and mines has the 6 spd. its a completely different sensation to the scoob very quiet and not so much all or nothing with the power that it has.

the handbrake actually said she misses the scoob already but she did make the final descision on the audi..

i loved the scoob but was using too much fuel every week so it had to go, i will miss it loads.

douglas you would miss me if i wasnt causing trouble on here

thanks for the kind comments guys

Nice, I may be a bit biased just now but they are good cars. Totally different drive though,

I have just got an S4 and compared to a classic its not as involving but by god its fast !!

I agree with the mpg thing though, I am getting 28mpg from a 2.7 V6 biturbo. ;)

The 1.8T 190 was always a 6-speed mate... Easy way to tell if its FWD or not, turn off ESP, engage first, engage handbrake, dial in 6k revs and then let go of cluch. [;)]

Alternatively, you could find a nice patch of wet grass (more bodywork friendly than gravel), disengage ESP, floor it and turn wheel. If it just spins and continues forward, its FWD.. If it kicks sideways then its 4WD. [:)]

Or look underneath for a prop shaft and a couple of driveshafts ?!? [:^)]. Very nice - got something quite similar coming soon too.
