Default New Owner - Many Thanks to the Forum Members

just bought an 02 A8L today. I've been a lurker here for a while doing my research before i took the plunge. The knowledge and enthusiasm of the forums members was a huge help in getting me get over my 'fear' of owning this level of car.

wish me luck...

And they really are made to be repaired... lubs dat German engineering. Don't be afraid to dive in if you are so inclined. For me in 2 weeks: All 8 control arm plus tie rod gubbins. Looks easy... hehehehe.
