Had this for about 4 months now. I had a holiday in Cornwall booked and the wife said it would be nice to go in a cabriolet again (had one before) so the search started!. Took about a month to find this..

Its a late (in the last 6 months of production Audi told me) 1.8 20v cabriolet. When i viewed car it had a tiny knocking on the front somewhere so i stripped it all down and checked it over before the holiday. I ended up fitting...

Both front arms
Balljoints
Both droplinks
Antiroll bar bushes
Front pads

Then i put it through an MOT which it passed, i also changed the rear gearbox mount with a genuine Audi one as it had gone weak.

Just before going I then had a panic attack about the cambelt so I then changed the belt and rollers, waterpump, thermostat and antifreeze lol

Heres some pics, hope you like!
