...a German garage by the name of Treser chopped the roof off the rally-
bred Audi Quattro coupe and fitted a fully automatic retractable hard-
top. Only 39 were made, of which only one was reportedly made in right-
hand drive (apparently for a British customer), and that vehicle is on
sale now on eBay http://snipurl.com/Audi_Quattro
In addition to the trick roof, which disappears in 20 seconds below a
hard boot-lid at the touch of a button on the b-pillar, Treser also
tinkered with the engine, coaxing 250 horsepower out of the
turbocharged inline-five...

Yup; the proportions are all wrong. Like most aftermarket convertibles.

Re: Audi Quattro Roadster by Treser - right-hand drive
Dave Plowman (News) (dave@davenoise.co.uk) gurgled happily, sounding much
like they were saying :

> Yup; the proportions are all wrong. Like most aftermarket convertibles.
I'd go as far as to say "like most retractable hardtops"
They *have* to be wrong, if the roof's going to fit the boot - unless you
add more hinges (and therefore shutlines/possible leaks). The Merc SL's
about the only one that works - and the roof on that's origami round the
rear window...
