Owned my PES supercharged 2.4 v6 for over 15 years. I just love how it drives it's been in storage for 8 years now due to numerous reasons hopefully back on the road this summer.
I have a very special 2001 cactus green 1.8TQ avant. It’s 1 of 4 made worldwide in its color/combo. I’ll never sell it 😎 it’s my favorite car I’ve ever owned. Thankfully I have my 2017 alltrack as a daily to keep miles off the b5
Very nice. My classmate in high school got the B5 S4 new as a first car which was wild, i had a 92 Jetta which I loved. Now with a B5 2.8 Quattro 5 speed and just hit 21k miles on it. What a smooth car it is, no snow tires just all season radials.
Yea I just can’t bring myself to driving my noggy in the snow since there’s so much salt they put down. I know I would be a blast making 450/475 in the snow but it’s not worth rusting it out.
Man I’m always so mad when they first put down salt cuz then I can’t drive my s4. I don’t feel like ruing it and letting it rust out but damn it would be an amazing car for the winter. Maybe I should buy a cheap auto for winter. Funny enough my nogaro s4 is also on the 8th owner (me). But it’s still in decent condition and paint is good. It’s been repainted tho. Full stage 3 with hybrid rs6 turbos and e85.
Hey ECS I bought the same wheels on this B5 s4 for my a3 for a set of winter wheels, issue is, they did not come with the center caps, do you carry them in your store?
So this series is meant to highlight the other side of being an enthusiast as well as the other cars they own. While this specific car isn't necessarily "built," it still carries on this owners passion for building cars. The name is simply just the series name as well as the format these episodes are shot.
In 2000s there was only one good Audi in terms of "not falling apart in rain". That was Audi A8,A8l, S8. D1 body style. A4/S4, A6 used to have time of issues.
I owned a Audi A4 B5 metallic silver for 9 years until i gave it up, after the transmission went for the 2nd time. I have a special place for A5 B5's but i won't go back, being their parts are too expensive and mechanics charge too much to work on them. Not to mention, there's not a lot of mechanics that know HOW to work on them. I had to threaten to sue one mechanic to pay for an oil change i had to get done at another mechanic, because the first repair shop, didn't change the moon seal! I told the mechanic , he didn't change the moon seal and he claimed there wasn't one! I brought it to another mechanic that works on Audi's and he changed the moon seal and told me to go back to the first shop and ask for my money back! He wrote a check for 1K after i threaten to sue him! But i have some fond memories of the A4 B5, thought! I nicked named her, "Audina" lol I knew more about my B5 than the average mechanic. I did change the brake pants and eventually started changing the oil myself. Changed pretty much everything i could get at myself. I was a member of "Audiforums,com" under "morpheous" in case anyone remembers my posts on there. I attended a Audi B5 meetup in Binghamton NY back in 2014. www.audiforums.com/forum/b5-models-69/aftermarket-radio-help-205597/ here is one of my posts, where i share pictures of my Radio head unit i had installed. Here's a post with photos from the meet up www.audiforums.com/forum/b5-models-69/whos-feelin-meat-time-180082/page30/ My Audi B5 is the one with the bra on the front. Mine was the only one with a bra... ^_^
Beater and s4 scare me. But good for you for keeping that thing going.

I had a 2000 VW 1.8t with the Audi tune. Very fun car, got crushed by hurricane Charlie, one month after my last payment.
Having a car crushed like that is never fun.. Sorry to hear about that

What happened to winter beater and summer drift guys? Loved those series
The hood is a Prefacelift. I have a 1.9 tdi AFN quattro avant and it goes through snow like it's nothing
His Winter beater is my Summer ride LOL.
That’s crazy. I saw this car recently passing through Stow lol
Poor Noggy. Car sure fits the owner!

My B5 S4 is sitting inside the garage, like always haha. But it's in mint condition even tho it has 374K kms on it.

I like these "vintage" Audis, but not as a beater, more like a nice car
I treat my 99 S3 8L quite good, altough its my daily

We sure do! www.ecstuning.com/Audi-B5_S4--2.7T/Wheels/Center_Caps/OE/
Had a 03 GTI 1.8t 20th anniversary. Great car but the family outgrew it.
So what part of the car had been 'built' then?
