I'm looking at a 99 2.8 qm, it has 83k miles. I can't quite remember what the timing belt replacement incriments are but would you say this is most likely pre or post timing belt and water pump change?

 

They probably havent changed it. The manual on my '01 said to change he belt at 105k miles.

 

alright, I thought that may be the case, I thought the change was a little over 100k but I've read so many threads that say they have changed them before thatI got a little confused. thanks for the help.

this would be the car I'm speaking of. Opinions?? I'm not in love with the color, but I could get used to it and thats the first a4 in that color I've seen so that makes it sorta cool. anyways what do you all think. I know it's a 2.8, but so was my other one and I cant say I'm full into the modding thing so....

 

i'd make sure its really what you want and not something you'll try to get use to. just my .02

 

im not a fan of that green color, i say you can do better.

 

looks nice if you tint it and lower it will look good IMO.

 

Agreed - that color is pretty nice, and the car appears in the pics to be well cared-for. You'd probably do just fine with that one as long as maintenance is up to date. It looks good though, and as ocadam said, tint and wheels would really make it stand out.
