Hello from a new ar owner
Well kind of new, I've been lurking for the past 6 months and thought I'd finally say hello. I heard about AW from NielM when I meet him in Streamline Ind. here in SLC.
I gave up on trying to keep my Land Rover Discovery alive last fall and bought an ar to replace it. It cracks me up to see people talk on AW about how bad Audi's are for reliablity, own a Rover and then talk about reliablity. Anyway I bought a cpo 01 6mt ar in highland green with all options except for the hot weather package and nav for $21,500 last October with 48k miles. My wife and I love it! I also have owned since new a 00 b5 a4 1.8t avant 5mt. Funny how we catch crap from friends about owning two wagons. But our two 75 lbs mutts seem to be happy with them. We live in SLC utah and whenever we go skiing our friends seem to be more than happy to ride in a wagon to the slopes. I'll never understand why americans think so little of wagons. I don't think I can ever own anything other than a wagon now.

Welcome from a fellow Highland Green (the BEST color IMHO):)
I also lurked for a very long time..about a year, afraid to get "flamed" and such...but this is a "nice" board for the most part.
I do agree though; the ar forum has a more mature feel.
