An A8 in this condition..? how the mighty fall...

LOL indeed, it's worth reading the whole story (there's quite a lot). Most entertaining.
Poor bloke!!! - catcher
It might be me but do you not think there's something strange about the picture of the heart scratched in the paintwork? There are two round things on the glass that look like hinge 'bolts' - but where on an Audi A8 would these be?

According to the text it's on the drivers side door pillar.

It does look kind of odd though as if it's not off the same car but why would he state something of a different car? strange..
Poor bloke!!! - teabelly
It is of the same car. If you look at the reflections in the pictures you can see the house and the fence and they are the same ones. Also in the large main picture of the car you can just see the funny disc shaped things which appear on the close up of the door pillar with the scratch.

It does make an entertaining read though!

LOL! And you have to laugh at his username!

On first reading I thought this must be made up. But given his feedback history, not to mention the babydoll outfit, it seems pretty genuine.

Good read to finish off Friday 13th!

Thank goodness I only had a Rover 400 to neglect when I got divorced. All makes horribly familiar reading!
Poor bloke!!! - No Do$h
I should add that I definitely "lost" in the divorce settlement. I got the car.

They are the glass guides, as the glass is flush fitted. They bolt through the glass and are a mushroom shape with the head of the mushroom running up and down a channel behind the black edging on the glass.
As also used on the later Audi 80.

Thanks AR-CoolC, I've never noticed these before - I'll keep an eye out for them.

Talking of Audis, my local garage has an A4 Avant SE 'Y' reg TDI for sale. The ad says its a 115 bhp but the 'TDI' badge on the tailgate is all silver. Am I correct in thinking that the 115 bhp version should have at least the 'I' in the 'TDI' badge in red?

Can't help thinking this one is more a case of 'invent a stupid story to explain why the car is in such bad condition', having seen the success of the previous auction. If she really had a tin of black paint, she didn't do a particularly good job - how do you get paint off paint without screwing up all the underlying paint? Paint stripper does not discriminate....

seen e-bay spiel like this before, still it grabs attention and sells items. Wifes and girlfriends who allegedly damage these cars don't seem to make a very good job do they?
