my wagon is dead !!!

Ever since my old C5 S6 wagon, I have been a huge fan of the Audi wagons. As you may, or may not know, Audi has stopped importing most of them to North America, starting about 8 years ago. I think the only one left that they sell now is the Allroad, and Im not a huge fan of the tacked on body pieces.

Anyway… our 2006 B7 2.0t wagon had served us well. Last week, while my Wife was on the way to work, she was rear ended. The damage didnt look crazy bad, but it was enough for a $5k CAD quote, and the car was only worth $5k. So, insurance has written it off.

The day they called me and told me it would be a writeoff, I was kind of relieved. I had planned some more work on the car before it was hit, but was wondering if I should proceed, considering the age of the car. Well, the decision was made for me.

I wasted no time and started scanning Autotrader and Kijiji for another wagon. I came accross the ultra-rare 3.0t C6 A6 wagon, and put down a deposit on the same day. Few days later, and we had the car at home.

For those that know me and my v10 S6, you can probably guess what is coming next :slight_smile:

I wont be going all out on this one like the S6, as it will be my Wife’s daily driver. But, I would like to do a pulley and a tune, to give it some extra power. Then see how it stacks up to my modded v10.
