    I've been following Wheelers Dealers for years but as an Audi fan I'm really disappointed with the changes that have been made to the car. These modern additions are completely pointless on this beautiful old coupe. Just nice rims, a good stainless steel exhaust and a chassis that is not too deep...... then you have a great youngtimer !

      Yes, well I would agree on the stereo though, but other than that yes, I agree.

    I'd of definitely put a nice stainless steel exhaust on it , as it still had the original 1 on and was most probably nearly past its best plus how nice would it of sounded especially with the 5 pot engine

    Talking of Prius, I had C.C. fitted to my 2010 T3, but with the slope of the bonnet it could do with sensores front and back (without that internal reverse bleeper). How do they fit?

    It would be great to see how the EFI fuel rail and bungs were fabricated. That part of the conversion is probably the most complicated. There are millions of cars out there with aging Bosch CIS / mechanical injection that would be great to convert, but fabricating fuel rails is not a simple DIY job for most people. Anyone have any insight on this?

    No images of the roof in the episode, until the end. Weird (and funny) camera angles every time.

    Changing the wheel size and tyres means the speedometer will be inaccurate.

      A bigger rim with a lower tire is the same diameter as before

      ​@@axelmaes4909 Wrong, I own an audi coupe, and 2 audi 80. The speedometer will have a small different with the different tyres and rim sizes. But the is a way to calibrate the speedometer which means taking it apart.

    I think Elvis ruined this Audi - would have much preferred it completely OEM bone stock. Those awful aftermarket additions have made it worse in my opinion.

    Lotta ppl commenting on the radio and i agree from an aesthetic point of view, but to be a daily driver, it needed to be changed. It's just that virtually all "modern" after-market stereos dont look subtle!

    Nothing wrong with the fuel injection system , plenty running around just fine on the old system. Bling and upgrades seem to be the new restoration . Just go and buy a 2010 fiesta and fit all the rubbish to it ..... Restored !!!

    A "bone stock" Audi of this era ain't worth jack. They're US market was non-existent after the 5000 debacle/lies. These are very marketable upgrades. The closed-loop fuel system pays for itself in reduced fuel usage and emissions. As noted, I would also add a new stainless exhaust but would also add drilled rotors.

    • @marknorman1084
      @marknorman1084 Рік тому

      This is UK not US. Stainless exhaust yes, ‘drilled rotors’ no. It isn’t a fast car and unless you are spending a lot of money on discs that have holes cast in them at point of manufacture (not drilled) you only run the risk of the discs cracking around the drilled holes when put through heat cycles.
      Grooved discs on the other hand would be better option.
