Anyone near Attleborough?

Post by True-Blue » Mon Feb 05, 2024 11:25 pm

Seem to remember a couple of forum members living near Attleborough?

Wondering if anyone might be able to cast an eye over an Audi TTS for me? (Well my other half actually)

It’s a bloody long way for me to travel from Bristol without having a rough idea on condition first :?

Stevo has more experience with them than me tbh.

PS. I asume you do mean the Norfolk one. There's another Attleborough in Northamptonshire I think.

Hi Martin,

It’s this one in Attleborough near Norwich. Priced a little optimistically and I would normally just go and view, but a real trek from Bristol if it turns out to be a dud. MOT history looks very good though, so promising signs.

I’m multi-tasking on work calls currently :rofl:

Will give you a call a bit later.

All I’d be hoping for is a quick once over, any obvious signs of crash damage, dodgy resprays or oil leaks. Hood condition, does aircon blow cold etc. :)

No worries. I'll wait to hear from you.
Free tomorrow any time to view: obviously best in daylight.

You know what will happen next, True-Blue will become an Audi fan boy and will want to get rid of his Alpina. In which case, he will have to sell it to me and with the current low prices, it will be a bargain for me :lol:

Things that have broke on my Mk 2 TTS. Glove box hinge. Cabin boot release handle. These are very common issues. Also, door mirror demister. Unlike the Z I have had no issues with the roof. :D :rofl:
