Default my first audi (pics)

I'm so amped right now it's crazy. This is my first car, and I worked pretty hard for it. It is a 1998 Silver Audi A4. It is a 2.8l Quattro, with a 5spd Manual. It has 16" 7spoke wheels, and a stock Bose stereo system. I fell in love with this car the moment I took it for a test drive. It is a 1998...so granted there are a few light scratches. The leather shows a few wrinkles of wear...but i expect that. There are no rips, so I am satisfied with the seats. The discolored part is a clear bra on it because the car used to be in Colorado. I am going to remove the bra so it does not look like 2 different colors.





the clear bra peels off ...but it leaves a bit of adhesive(i tried a small corner)...if anyone has any suggestions on how to remove the adhesive i'd be interested...but for now i'm really excited about the car and I can't wait to drive it.

Nice looking. I think a few wrinkles in the leather gives the car a more sophisticated look anyway. Besides, I envy you having real leather seats compared to my leatherette.

Looks nice. Take out your floor mats, spray them with water -- like soak them, then spray on a light/medium duty degreaser, brush it in with... a brush... and then let them sit for a couple minutes. hose them off again, hang them somewhere to dry. They will come out black as the night!

The same degreaser thing applies to carpet, but you prolly dont want to use a hose... just a little bit of water in a spray bottle, and a rag or wash mit to wipe it down after.

I hate dirty carpet :P
