    Not on the road, but saw this in our local scrap yard. Sills very rusty, can see straight through the left rear one.
    200 manual, if you needed a few bits it might provide.
    Red interior, carpet surprisingly good.

    How many of those are there in the country, it's possible that's the only one!

    Pity he replaced the 450SEL badge with AMG. Do the latter even have anything to do with this car at all?

    I know of about 2 or three other ones, although they are all imports - I'm not sure if any were sold new here - there were only about 7,300 made, between '76 and '80 - good ones are fetching over $40k, as they are expensive to maintain (Citroen-licensed hydro-pneumatic suspension, massive V8 engine) and are getting rare.

    The body kit is from AMG, and some did have AMG tuning on the engines, but it's hard to know about this one without opening the bonnet.

    Fair cop, I took it for a tarted up 924. Should have crossed the road for a positive id.

    :eek: :( :mad:

    The only thing Audi about those Porsches is the 2l petrol engine in the 924 (not in the 944, that used half the engine of the Porsche V8 engine from the 928)

    And of course the gearbox in my Porsche Boxster is from an Audi :p:D

    but it also worked the other way - how about a 911 van?

    Where I grew up in Holland a local garage had a red one parked outside. Must have been owned by the garage or owner worked there. Long time ago now!

    this passed me yesterday evening on the M50 - I was fairly tipping along at 1** kph, he was travelling quite a bit faster !
