The V8 club that is, having been following a few cars for a while, one popped up on eBay which met my criteria and wasn't too far away....so I made an impulse purchase.... anyone care to guess what it is?

Unfortunately not - just loads of static on the display! 
The problem with impulse purchases is I have 6 pallets of slate between it and the garage.....

Were those wheels an option? I thought the S4 had a different style. Looks good though.

Those were always handsome beasts - much nicer than the facelifted versions.

 On a more serious note I remember the garage I worked at having an estate one of those in and it had suffered some sort of expensive mechanical issue that resulted in the engine light being on. It might've been bore wash? I'm not sure if it's an inherent problem or a one-off but I do remember it was a full history, low mileage car. It sounded good though.
