Greetings fellow community!

This is long overdue since I've joined the community.

Here are some pictures of my pride and joy:

Clean looking car. How many miles on her?

 

Where are you located? Looks like you might live on Vancouver Island. Also his sig say 67000km!!! Good find. I found mine a couple years back with 97000 and I thought that was low.

Wow, that is a nice clean looking B5! Congratulations on finding such a low mileage example of (in my opinion) the best looking A4 procuced to date- an instant classic. God, some days I miss my '96 B5.

 

The mileage when purchased (over a year ago) was 57,6xx km. Now my baby has 688xx km.

@Cyber: you guessed it! Took these pictures in Cordova Bay.

The only thing that's not "clean" is a dent in the rear left door. Somebody while they were parking dented her and drove away while I wasn't in the area...


Thanks guys,
Nick

 

Welcome fellow Victorian!!! There is also another person on here that just started posting from Victoria.

Ya I was looking for my A4 in 2009 when my Jetta got totaled by a drunk driver when parked on the side of the road. I always had my eye on the A4 ever since it came out and this was the perfect opportunity as the insurance adjuster gave me top dollar for my car after much negotiations. There was actually 2 A4s over at Capilano Audi. One was a 2001 5spd black on black cloth with 97000km and the other was a 2000 5spd silver a4 on tan leatherette with only a mere 37000km. I was temped by the silver but really wanted the black on black due to the look of the rocker panels. The black was calling my name so I ended up getting her. It had all options that I wanted sans the sport seats which I can live with.

There are a bunch of people with different Audi's on here from the Victoria area. I figure it's the crappy weather that's stopped the talk of a GTG. Spring is here so we should put the word out.

That sounds like a great idea Doug!

I've also been wondering what the little red triangular thing means on the right of the T in 1.8T, since I haven't seen any other Audi with that miniscule triangle.

It's the symbol used to mark the 2001.5 A4 that came with the 170hp engine. Some have also said that it also signifies that the turbo was upgraded from a KO3 to a KO3s (sport) from 2000 to 2001 but there is not official documentation on that that anyone can provide.

Hey Nick. Did I see you on Quadra and Cloverdale today (Saturday April 30)? You were waiting for the light to turn green and I'm pretty sure it was you as the car had a spoiler and celebration wheels. I was heading down Quadra in the opposite direction turning onto Cloverdale in my black A4 and saw you looking in my direction so I gave you the wave.

Doug

 

Doug, that was definitely me that you saw because I remember seeing a shiny black A4 turn off. Every time I see an Audi on the road, it seems to jump out at me. Failed to see the wave tho!
