that granny was a 2.8i special, they were basically a ghia with manual gears and a sportier look and set up, very rare now as they didnt make them for long.

the quattro looked stunning again last night, what a legend they are.

think gene hunt would have had a cossie if they were out back then.

A man who's about to have his bum-conkers squashed by a big machine would've coughed by now.

I saw a Maestro hatch drive past in one scene in series one, and that was meant to be 1981, and they weren't released until very late in 1982.
