Re: yellow bigbody scirocco

["Zach Vrooman" <zach@discover-net.net>]

I have to agree. Any VW or Audi driver who comes into my store and has the
great fortune to have me wait on them usually gets one hell of a good deal.
Ask the guy I sold an Audi door handle. Should have gotten 50-some odd
bucks for it- sold it to him for $41.00 plus tax. This was a German-made
door handle in an Audi labeled bag. Came with a lock and keys, too. It'll
look good when he gets it totally done. The car is a 4000 quattro, and he
got it for $1100. Grrrrrr.
