Default New parts runner. :)

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/70334/newcoupe.jpg"></center><p>
Finally settled up with the insurance company regarding my recent <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/9080/msgs/248299.phtml">accident</a>. They delayed for almost a month, but finally declared my car a total loss. Their first offer was an insult, but my negotiating skills/anger won out in the end and I received reasonable market value for my car. I was able to keep my car for only $300 less in the settlement, and I will be fixing it. The damage is not as bad as I thought it was going to be, I may have it back on the road next week (without the f***ing airbag).

I rescued this nice little pearl/black leather coupe from under a car cover in the driveway of a local Mercedes Benz enthusiast. He needed the space for his MB projects, but wasn't trying very hard to sell. He had advertised it a while back on a local classified site, where I found it, but I don't think very many people go to that site. The car is very clean, all stock, runs great. I got a VERY good deal. Mods will wait until after the 93 is back on the road, but at that point the parts runner becomes the project, and that could get very interesting indeed.

Does anybody have a B3 Bentley for sale cheap?

Default good luck with the CQ...just think, you already have some

OZ wheels to put on the CQ in the spring...and perhaps you should consider this to remedy your airbag problem: ;-)<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;category=30181&amp;item =7942734371&amp;rd=1">http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;category=30181&amp;item =7942734371&amp;rd=1</a</li></ul>

Let me guess...kslcars.com I think I saw it there for 3k, but I imagine you got it for less...

Your OZ wheels should look good on it! We need to organize a Utah drive.

Default Yes, we need to get a drive going. :)

Yep, that's where I found it. I did get a very good deal.

They aren't OZs but they are good looking wheels nonetheless.

I work with markfank so I know what you bought it for...good deal! He's a little disappointed you didn't buy his, but oh well.

Default I REALLY wanted his...

I just couldn't afford it with what the insurance gave me. After their first offer, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to afford anything at all.

Mark's is very sweet, it looks to be in great shape and is the perfect color. Mine has a few rough spots overall, but I love working on these things so it's perfect for me.
