Just picked this thing up last week. It's an early 99 1.8t quattro with 105k ( timing belt done at 90k )




I have big plans for this car.. but im sure it'll be a slow process. I miss my old car, but Quattro + better MPG is looking pretty good

my old ride

 

nice car. quick tip use [IMG][/IMG] istead of [IMG]

 

Nice! Make sure to do all the PM like, seafoaming the engine, oil, gas, changing the plugs, engine filter, pollen filter, fuel filter, and make sure the timing belt has been done. Do it if it hasn't.

 

I test drove that car about two weeks ago. I know exactly where you got that, that place is not that far away from me. I got a different A4 about 5 days after I drove it, I have had mine for about a week today.

 

Nice purchase!, a big step up from you're old ride. How much did ya pick her up for?

 

welcome to the family.lol

why do some b5's have the little tray/cup holder thing to the right of the emergency flashers and some just have more buttons, like the left side of the flashers????

 

^^Idk but I have one and thats exactly where my turbo timer is gonna go. I can close the latch and keep it extra clean and hidden. Right now I keep my wallet in it.

 

I don't know why that is either. On mine the far right and left ones control the heated seats then all the others control fog lights, hazards etc. So i don't have the on dash cup holder. I have buttons all the way across. Maybe more options = less drinking connivence? idk, I wouldn't mind another cup holder tho...

 

welcome to the forums, definitely a way better purchase then your previous car

ive never been a fan of the jetta.

 

you lose the cup holder if you have heated seats. The passenger side control is in the last bay, thus eliminating the possibility of a cup holder.
