Car Forum / MINI / April 2006Buying a used Audi 200 A4
Good Morning, I am currently in the process of buying a used 2000 A4 Quarttro for around $12950.00 with roughly 64,000 miles. Was wondering if anyone had any advice/oppions on this car and or mechanic to look at in the SF Bay area. Thanks, Todd > Good Morning, > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Todd Good choice of car, well better than a BMW bini, look for a full service history, listen for strange clunks & noise while steering slowly, at this mileage make sure its had a cam belt, expect to start replacing front suspension components, this can be costly, check the body very carefully for accident damage, listen for clunks when changing gear & engaging disengaging the clutch, the build quality of all a4s is not as good as the Audi 80, pitty really, Steve. (1) Brake master cylinder, (2) front upper and lower wishbones and ball joints (3) oil leaks from rocker cover area, (4) the timing belt is due for change to name but a few,,, by-the way...... your in the wrong NG HTH Fitzy > Good Morning, > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Todd Your right....I will try to delete this if I can....thanks for the advice! > Your right....I will try to delete this if I can....thanks for the > advice! Or alternatively buy a Mini, no not one of those nasty BMW Hatchback things, but a real Mini. Go on you'll be glad you did I can assure you. :O) Taffy >>Your right....I will try to delete this if I can....thanks for the >>advice!

The > BMW model out performs that outdated english pile of dog sh.t. define performance: power: well yes, the new mini has more power, but it is 45 years newer, handling: you'll be hard pushed to beat a classic on tens in your cooper S on 17" space: classic -enough for 4 people, new - enough for 4 people - even though it is 2 foot bigger in each direction... economy: 40mpg (UK) easily for a mildly hot classic - 25mpg if you're lucky from the BMW cooper S i stress the first point - your car is a modern day shopping trolley come back in forty five years an we will compare your car to modern day equvalents - oh - wait - no one will remember the bmw by then... why are you on this NG madmax. if you do not like the classic mini, goto alt.autos.new-mini >>I wouldn't buy one of those old mini pieces of sh.t.

And its not hard pushed at all in out cornering the old mini's. As far as popularity, BMW mini's have already sold more total cars, worldwide, than the obsolete model. And as long as this newsgroup is titled alt.autos.mini, I will remain. For that is precisely the name of one of my cars. > Actually my 2003 BMW mini gets 43 mpg on the highway. If it is a Cooper S (as my comparison states) you are not driving it as it should be, If we are talking about motorway (highway) runs then a standard 1000/1275 mayfair could do 50+. >And its not hard pushed at all in out cornering the old mini's. have you ANY experience of driving the classic? >As far as popularity, BMW mini's have already sold more total cars, worldwide, than the obsolete model And this proves your original statement that it out PERFORMS the classic how? - just means there are more suckers buying a overpriced and under-powered hatchback out there. I assume you are in the US from your use of "highways" - for those readers in the UK, a SKODA diesel hatchback is quicker round a track than a Cooper, and a lot easier on the pocket. > And as long as this newsgroup is titled alt.autos.mini, I will remain. > For that is precisely the name of one of my cars. You certainly may stay around here, i have no objection, but from what i have seen, the only reason you are here is to put people down by obnoxious posts. alt.autos.new-mini may be more helpful if you do have a question on your car. Ps, learn some grammar! - "For that is precisely the name of one of my cars." is not a sentence, just a fragment. this newsgroup isnt around for people to argue whos car is better, it is for technical help, and to share knowledge (an a lot more if i knew the constitution). RS >>Actually my 2003 BMW mini gets 43 mpg on the highway. > [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] > constitution). > RS Who cares if it is a sentence or not? Was there something that you didn't understand? Who is arguing? I simply made a statement. As did you. Alt.autos.new-mini has nothing for me. My car is three years old. Which wouldn't be new.

Anyway maybe your so called MINI isn't new, but it's still not an Issigonis Mini, so it and you don't belong here!

You are a f.cking bigot, taffie! Can you make up your mind. First you say this new group is for "f.cking mini's" then you say it is for "issigonis". Please change the name of the newsgroup, so the world will know what the hell kind of people are supposed to be here. As far as I know "you" don't belong here. With all of your homosexual and anti American bashing. What kind of place is this? And I am still waiting for you to hunt me down and gut me! You are a COWARD! > Taffy wrote:> > > How can I read your lips when your in America you TWAT! [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > anti American bashing. What kind of place is this? And I am still > waiting for you to hunt me down and gut me! You are a COWARD! Can't you read? I said when your in America you TWAT, not you American twat! And yes this newsgroup is for Mini's and there's a charter somewhere that apparently states which models that includes too and there's no mention of BMW or it's BINI abomination on it! And no why should we change the name simply to please a small minded moron like you! I'm certainly not anti American or a homosexual basher as I have already pointed out many times, but I am about to pay for my plane tickets, so expect an unpleasant visit anytime soon! Taffy > Can't you read? I said when your in America you TWAT, not you American > twat! And yes this newsgroup is for Mini's and there's a charter somewhere [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Taffy You have made several anti American and several insulting homosexual statements, in previous posts. Why are you denying your prejudice attitude? As far as the news group... Go ahead and leave it named mini. But with a general title as that,you will continue to get postings from ALL mini owners, old,new,BMW, whatever.Its like having a newsgroup titled alt.collectors.knives. I won't hold my breath waiting for a coward like you. Poor lonely,lonely lost sole. Awww, whats up Madmax? lost you dummy :-) mummy going to get you a new one? Steve. > Awww, whats up Madmax? lost you dummy :-) mummy going to get you a new one? > > Steve. No problem here.

Well if I did make abusive comments, they were only intended for you Mark, just to piss you off like you piss us off and nothing more. As for getting posts on all Mini's, well that's fine if it's a variety that was produced between 1959-2000 and that includes the Riley Elf and Wolseley Hornet too or one based on the Issigonis Mini, but the BMW BINI just doesn't cut the mustard here mate. Taffy > Well if I did make abusive comments, See, you are an IDIOT of the 1st degree. You made plenty bigoted comments. I don't care if they were directed at me or not. They were still bigoted.

Really, how stupid can you be? sh.t, not only are you a bigot against Americans and homosexuals, you are a bigot against the BMW mini. Now I know where you are coming from. The world is only to see through your eyes. Too bad you are blind, lonely and pathetic. It seems like the three or four only regular members here are wearing blinds. No one else is aloud into their private little club. Boo-Hoo Yap Yap Yap, its way past you bed time :-) Steve. > Then change the f.cking name of the newsgroup to "mini's before 2000" or > shut the f.ck up.

If you don't have anything to say, why not just shut your ugly pie hole? If you want to join the argument, then contribute something. Or do you just deal with pictures? I am dealing with more than pictures, right now I am dealing with a retard, you want to see him? look in your mirror :-) Steve. >> Yap Yap Yap, its way past you bed time :-) >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > If you want to join the argument, then contribute something.

A retard huh, my my, the members of this newsgroup are prejudice against almost everyone. Do you want to put any other members of society down? You may now return to your "big picture" book. > > Well if I did make abusive comments, > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > like the three or four only regular members here are wearing blinds. No > one else is aloud into their private little club. Boo-Hoo Well I don't think we're particularly prejudice against anyone, we just don't like the BMW BINI that's all and I don't see why we should change the name of this newsgroup when it relates to a famous small British car that changed the face of motoring and was produced for over 41 years! Taffy >>>Well if I did make abusive comments, >> [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > Taffy Because, moron, there is a new car in town. And it has the "exact" same name as the old one. Like it or not. It also shares the same name as this newsgroup. Are you really that mentally slow? > >>>Well if I did make abusive comments, > >> [quoted text clipped - 35 lines] > name as the old one. Like it or not. It also shares the same name as > this newsgroup. Are you really that mentally slow? Well sh.t head just because it has the same name, well it's generally displayed as MINI, whilst ours is Mini, why should we change the name of this newsgroup since it was conceived before there was a BMW MINI/BINI. And if any brain dead BINI owners find their way on to here and are to stupid to see the group concerns the Issigonis variety, we'll just politely point them in the right direction as usual. ;O) Taffy >>Because, moron, there is a new car in town.

Yup, and you are supposed to be hunting me down tommorrow. I'm waiting for you, a.s hole. Perhaps you really aren't half a man at all. As a matter of fact, you aren't even close to being a man, girl. > > THAT BRAIN-DEAD YANK IDIOT STILL POSTING HIS INANE COMMENTS? > > > Yup, and you are supposed to be hunting me down tommorrow.

Mr. "**" is supposed to be arriving today, to kick my a.s. He has my I.P. address and is out to get me. OOOH, I'm shivering in my boots. So, if you would keep track of this newgroups postings, you would have realized that I make perfect sense. Seriously thinking I would never come looking for you, I don't want to take part in a real life "Deliverance" Steve. > I am making sense! If you would read past posts.

Why is it that most of the regular members of this newsgroup,in particular Steve and Taffy, can only think about homosexuality? Is it time you came out of the closet? Is it an old-mini thing, what, I just don't get it. Well everytime you post a "Bitchy Yanky" message, we instantly think of homosexuality, so no it's not a Mini thing, it's more a BMW BINI thing mate! > Well everytime you post a "Bitchy Yanky" message, we instantly think of > homosexuality, so no it's not a Mini thing, it's more a BMW BINI thing > mate! There you go again.....dreaming of having sex with another man. Come on Daryl....face the facts. You are gay. Admit it and be proud. I just can't figure out why you think of sex and German cars. Maybe you and your boyfriends could have sex in a car ??? Whatever makes you happy. Hey brain-dead you have a poor memory, my name is Darryl actually! And no I'm not admitting to being gay, because as it happens I'm not, but even if I was I wouldn't be bothered as such as I see nothing to be ashamed of? Taffy > Hey brain-dead you have a poor memory, my name is Darryl actually!

Then quite thinking about it so much. Or if you have to think of it, instantly, perhaps you should just keep it to yourself. And no, I don't have a poor memory. I misspelled your name intentionally. As you continue to misspell mine. It doesn't bother me, like it does you because I have no respect of anything that you have to say. > > Hey brain-dead you have a poor memory, my name is Darryl actually!

Taffy > No I just would hate for you to have the last word you foul mouthed mother > f.cking American peace of filth! > > Taffy Obviously, you are a spoiled little boy with no patience and an explosive temper. Unfortunately the more upset you get, the more ignorant you sound. For instance, "you", calling me foul mouthed. Hah,what a fool and two faced bigot, you are !!! how are the pigs IDIOT? Steve. > how are the pigs IDIOT? > > Steve. I don't know. You tell me, since you sleep with them.

You have a real Mini? That's the funniest thing I've heard this year mate, no you have a large overpriced and overated German faceless hatchback mate! We have the real thing which changed the face of motoring and exceeded well beyond all expectations and it's technology is still being copied today, yes even by your horrible BINI too! > You have a real Mini?

No I can always beat you in an argument regarding my passions Mark, but I'm just of the same opinion as everyone else on this Newsgroup and that's that we only chat about real Mini's and not BMW wanabees. Taffy >>>>>You have a real Mini? That's the funniest thing I've heard this year >>>>>mate, no you have a large overpriced and overated German faceless [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > Taffy I rest my case. Proof that you are opinionated and one sided. Posting in a generally titled newsgroup, one sided postings. And my, what a popular newsgroup it is. A whopping total of 4 regulars. WOW ! And if you can beat me in an argument, do it. Please try for once to make a little sense though. sh.t, what am I thinking, you can't. Example, Taffy only pops in once a day.....lie,lie,lie. > THAT BRAIN-DEAD YANK IDIOT STILL POSTING HIS INANE COMMENTS? What does "**" stand for? Possibly both of your a.s holes? Braindead yank, go play with your Banjo :-) Steve. > Braindead yank, go play with your Banjo :-) > > Steve. Steve, you really have nothing to say, do you. Are you just feeling left out, and had to jump into the argument for a cheap thrill. You lonely f.ck. |
