The deed is done ... the beast has been replaced by ... :'( :'( :'(
(https://i.postimg.cc/6q9hj8M5/Audi-small.jpg)
Most folks don’t know but back in January I had a nasty fall that ended up with 16 head stitches, cracked ribs, and severe bruising to back, pelvis and hips … This has left me 1) Struggling to lift/load stuff into the top box when fitted and 2) REALLY struggling to do any work on or under the car due to mobility issues; add this to the fact that 3) She is now over 18 years and I cannot get European breakdown cover from anywhere – there is no way I’m doing 3 weeks in France with the “tintent” on the back without breakdown cover, so I’m afraid she has to go. Replacement is an estate so the lifting problems go, its only 5 years old, so the breakdown cover is solved, and the chances of me needing to work on it are hopefully very low !!
Only downside is it runs on truck fuel ...
Stand by for a lengthy advert, with lots of photos, in the for sale section :'( :'( :'(
-
Sorry to hear of your injury, Nigel. :(
I hope your new steed serves you well. :y
-
Sorry to hear about your fall, Nige, sounds nasty.
Truck fuel is an upside, BTW :)
-
That looks really nice.
Sorry to hear about your fall. Hope you make a full recovery.
-
Does it have the move out of the way, headlight flash switch... ;D
Sorry.
-
Very classy looking motor , will serve you very well I'm sure.
-
Ouch! That does sound like it was a fair old fall :(
That does look to be a nice motor :y
-
Alot to go through just to justify buying an Audi :o
Joking aside, hope you are mending thoroughly :y
-
Looks nice, enjoy :y
-
Hard decision to come to, as was ours when we waved goodbye to big blue a week or 2 ago.
But when the time comes, the time comes.
-
Sorry to hear about your fall, Entwood, and pleased you are on the mend. These things happen, it's good that you are determined to go driving abroad again, even if it entails buying a younger and more expensive car. Good luck to you!
-
looks really nice,one benefit of truck fuel is the torque that comes with it :y :y
-
That looks nice and I've always fancied one of those, so will be interested to hear how you get on with it. :y
What do you intend to do about servicing etc Nige? Main dealer, Indy Audi specialist or local garage? :-\
Hope you're recovering well from what sounds like a very nasty fall! :)
-
Looks nice Entwood, I'm sure she'll be a fine replacement for the Omega. Glad to hear you are on the mend, too!

Took me a second .. I thought you were just insulting Audi's for a minute ;D ;D
-
Nice looking car, 3litre too, that will certainly tug a bit👍

Now you are just being silly.... ;D
Canal boat fuel aside it looks like a nice motor car. :y

Once Nigel realises how torquey his new acquisition is, and the ease with which it tows, coupled with a much increased fuel economy, I think he will be a very happy chap. :y
-

Yep,around 240 bhp and 400 odd newts of torque so will do the job well I should think :y
-
'Zero smoke too clean' on the last MOT. What???
-
Ahhh......maybe not had the 'repair' done.

It certainly has some ooomph, VERY quick to accelerate and I could lose my licence very quickly !!, not towed with it yet, but the fuel economy will not be THAT big an increase over LPG, although it should be slightly better, especially solo.
:)
Thanks for all the nice comments regarding my health, it is getting better every day, and the quacks say a full recovery is just a matter of time.
The beast is provisionally sold, awaiting the deposit .... mixture of :) and :'( :'(

Some more pictures would be good. :y :y

On every single diesel I've had, you only get significantly better economy than petrol if you are Miss Daisy. Gun a decent diesel about, and it will easily give MPG in the 20s over a tank.... ...or lower. Certainly my 3l MV6 was cheaper on fuel to run than the 3l Jag diesel. Obviously, I care little about economy, or tree huggers.
The torque characteristics should improve towing MPG and drivability.
-
Some more pictures would be good. :y :y
mmmm It's black and needs a wash, seller had done it when we viewed on Tuesday !! Now looks not as good :(
If I get time tomorrow I'll tart it up and take some piccies for you :)

Black and the one bucket/49p sponge method isn't a good combo :D

Turbo derv cars seem to respond very well to a remap.Better than turbo petrol.
Some say a remap also improves the MPG.......perhaps.

mmm don't know a great deal about diesels yet, but this one revs freely to 3000 without batting an eyelid, and the redline starts at 5000 !! coupled to the 7 speed box it goes some !!!
Sat at 85 on the dual carriage way it was showing 36 mpg on the computer

It's a bit like brexit, Nigel. Diesel haters will never, ever admit that they have any benefits whatsoever. Entrenched positions are the order of the day. For my part, I have had the same model of car in both petrol and diesel and, taking everything into account, I am happier with the diesel.

I see it's sold,, is it staying on the forum..

You, Sir, are an entrenched dervateer....... :D

Having driven my bosses several times I can confirm that it will go like a scalded cat! It’s also quite a pleasant place to be :y
(Although admittedly, his is chipped)
As for everything else - sorry to hear of your tumble Nige... Perhaps next time a little more tonic with your gin? :D
Stay well and enjoy the new steed
-
5000 rpm will be all it can do not start at, and really doesn’t need to be up there,
Anyway it will be 100% better than the Omega for towing especially if you get it remapped which I recommend as it will be better on fuel and far more lively (I know).

If it has the same engine as the 3.0 tdi A6 quattro we have at work I can confirm that. I don't think my 3.2 Omega would stand a chance of keeping up with it.

Very nice car Nigel. Best wishes with the recovery.
-
Hi Nige. I do know how long these things take to recover from, having recently slipped on mud and kissed concrete - lots of blood and a broken nose - so I wish you well with your recovery.
Your dearly-departed did a magnificent job when you relocated MY tin tent, so if your new motor is even better, then WOW! :y 8) :)

Sat at 85 on the dual carriage way it was showing 36 mpg on the computer
My XJ shows around 40mpg doing similar, but Jag fuel computers are like a cheap watch, to the order of 10-15%. So probably very similar in reality :)
Over the 2 years I've had it, I think my (manually calculated) MPG is hovering around 32mpg - and now has enough data points that a good long, 300 mile 70mph cruise doesn't really impact the overall figure. I think you drive more sedately most of the time, so you might get good figures.
So pence per mile, purely on fuel, its a bit behind the LPG MV6, and diesel servicing does tend to be a little more expensive (and all modern car servicing is, because they all need this new fangled oils and shit - and in your case, probably some pigs piss as well?). I suspect you might gain on the towing side of things though.
I'm always wary of remapping Audis, but that is based purely on the older A4s and their shitty manual chocolate gearboxes that start to melt. So if you go down that route, go with trusted, reliable feedback from people you know/trust, not marketing tosh.

Thanks for that .. no pigs piss needed on this one, and no intent on any remap .. it goes well enough as it is ! I have no idea what "real world" fuel consumption will be ... I'll let you know in a couple of weeks/months !! :)
-
Someone asked fo some piccies : ..... :) So now it's clean (and I think the Kosovans might do it more often ... rather a lot of metal to clean !! ) :)

I do like the wheels and guess they may be an upgrade.
Twenty inches?

yup .. and according to the paperwork they cost the purchaser a cool £2,445.00 (inc VAT) !!
Base spec of the car was £44.525 (inc VAT) but with all the "extras" stipulated it came to £56,530.00 (inv VAT) !!!!!!!!
so I think I got a reasonable deal comparing to Autotrader/ebay/Motors/Parkers/Lookers/Gumtree and everywhere else I looked and compared !!!
Does need a set of tyres VERY soon (bartering point made) presently has "run flats" ... not sure I'll go that way... :-\
-
Sorry to hear of your fall Nige, hope you are on the mend.
As for the new car, very nice. :y I've had quite a few 3.0d's (albeit bmw) and they have some serious torque, both solo and towing. For such a quick car I've always been more than happy with the mpg, although the All Wheel Drive (XDrive in my case) has had quite a significant hit on mpg.
In my view, you have a quick car that still gives decent mpg so I'd be more than happy with it. :y
Hope it serves you well. :y

With regard to new 20 inch boots.
I went for Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. They are superb. Longevity is excellent as is both wet and dry grip. Quiet too.
They are expensive but shopping around makes a huge difference.
Check out the independent tyre reviews..... :y

Flappy paddles are fun. :y
Looks almost the same as the one we have at work. I really enjoyed driving that. Hope it serves you well. 8)

Seems I was not told the truth .. it does NOT have runflats at present, and the paperwork has no mention of runflats .... but previous owner said it did ....
It has a spare of sorts ... weird looking collapsable thing that comes with a compressor :(
Tyres are looking about £200 ish a corner ... trying to choose between Continental ContiSportContact / Michelin PS4 /Pirelli P Zero / Goodyear Eagle F Assym 3
-
Being a Quattro, it probably requires that all four are changed at the same time ;)
As for the spare... https://youtu.be/GjFnCOI7NUQ at least it has one :y

Insurance companies?
I tell them nothing.

Being worn it NEEDS all 4 replacing !! 2.5mm left on the fronts, 3.00mm on the rears !! :)

Would it be a good idea to periodically inflate/deflate those collapsable spares to keep the rubber supple? :-\

Wonder how much fiting would add ....

About £15 a corner :y

I have a real dislike of twin spoke type wheels, such as those on the MFL MV6, or Portfolio XJs. They are a sod to clean.
-
tyrewise, pretty much every tyre place will happily match Blackcircles price (fitted price, that is), so I tend to buy locally, telling them the Blackcircles price before they quote.
Its my preference to get a local place to supply and fit, rather than buy mail order, then pay someone to fit, as I've had a few tyre failures, and it takes all the arguments out of the equation. And unless you can fit yourself, its never more expensive.

Sorry to hear of your fall, hope feel better soon. :y
Responded on PM for VCDS, if you are ever past this way happy for you to give my copy ago. To be honest I could lend you the laptop for a while if you want it, give a good go see if you like it.

I wish I could get mine for £200 a corner.
Still, its stopped me going to the local BP.

Went away in the new beast for Easter, whist prepping to tow I decided to have a photo shoot ....
(https://i.postimg.cc/KvNdKK5X/DSC-3481.jpg)
Hate to say it , but I "might" have found a better towcar than the Omega, and I thought that was good !! Behaved impeccably and needed concentration to stay within the speed limits, even with 1700 Kgs on the back !!
Initial fuel costings are surprising, over 360 miles of which 160 were towing, 120 around town/country lanes, and just 80 of solo cruising, its worked out at 17.06 pence / mile, the Omega on LPG over a similar "mixed" trip averaged 17.5 pence /mile. I know it's way to early, and it's just a snapshot but I'm pretty pleased as I expected it to be a fair bit more expensive than LPG :)
-
Good stuff :y
Always thought a big 6 pot diesel would tow well, due to huge amounts of torque.
-
Shocking news just in: Car designed 10 years ago better than car designed 30 years ago.
:P
/me goes back to looking at cars designed 20 years ago.. "compromise" ;D
Seriously though, those fuel costs are very good indeed - very impressive with a burger van on the back :y

probably not even got any horse-meat or pigs testicles in it :-\

If you fancy a chicken kebab, this recipe is actually really nice: http://pinchofnom.com/recipes/syn-free-chicken-kebab-slimming-world/
Do it in a disposable tin, though, because the yogurty mix will weld itself irrevocably to the pan, speaking from experience.
There's a doner kebab recipe knocking about somewhere that you do in the slow cooker, too.. haven't tried that one yet.
Obviously drinking 12 pints beforehand will ruin the diet aspect ;D

Sorry, I do not understand recipes. That's why the dear Lord invented KFC/Chippie/Dominos/café/kebab/women.

She's now gone to her new owner who seems very pleased.
Officially no longer an Omega Owner now :( but I might keep the photo up a while longer :)
