Default Came across this picture of my urquattro taken before I bought the rally car.

I sold these Modas... But I think they looked pretty good on the urQuattro chassis.

This picture was taken August 1, 2002. Almost one year to the day.

Default Nothing performance wise.

Just some std maintenance. Plugs, dist cap, rotor, wires.. Oil changE!! The oil was really dirty.

The car is okay and I drove it back from Jersey to Texas last summer without problems.

Next on the agenda is a full brake job. The rear calipers are original and have finally seized.

Default Did you buy that car from Bruno or was it built by him for someone else?

My n/a 20v is having a hessitation problem that I, local Audi/VW shop, dealer, cant find the source of. Brunos shop is a bit far from me, but I am fed up with it and yearn for the high RPM kick the 7a gives that I so dearly miss. How was the quality of his work? I have heard he is one of the, if not THE, best this side of the pond . . .

Default the white urquattro is a standard stock street car.

Bruno and his crew built the rally car for his own use. The level of work in the car is impeccable. I haven't seen a single shortcoming of any kind in the workmanship and the attention to detail is superb.

I have heard that his work on Audis especially older ones at his facility on Onderdonk in Queens in excellent. The mechanics I met while I was there buying the rally car were both older guys who have definately been working on Audis for a very long time.

Out of the two, who would be the "best" to work on my problematic 7A?

Default Oh, one more thing.

The mechanics and Bruno are all Germans. Thick German accents on all of them.

Default Either - or -

Bruno's got the factory knowledge, Constantine's is more of a down to earth shop.

I know Constatine better, but that doesn't mean squat really. He's a really nice guy.
