New member – howdy!

this ugly ArmyRifle I 'm able to take it at home, but I don't want it longer, every year some humanistic people try to forbid gun possession by politically ways... every wapon must be registered, some wapons must by special registered et cetera et cetera, I'm sad to be permanent on coal if I'm do legal or not... and when I take it at home after my last refresher, so I still must go to the obligatory (so we say to the obligated shooting day for armyrifleowners) and when I forgett to shoot at the obligatory so I must pay expiation. At least, I'm not really a rifleman, more a pistolman and so I only keep my SIG P220 at home

Hi,

a warmly welcome from Austria! The V8 is a good choice and a future classic, keep it well maintained and you'll have a lot of fun!

Another good place for you to say hello may be the German Auto Connection (can be found on Google) as they sell a lot of spare parts for the V8 and the US Audi V8 mailing list (v8@audifans.com). Sincerely, it's way less comfortable than our forum here, but as you live in the US you'll run short of spare parts sooner or later and then it's good to have somebody "nearby" who can help you out.

Tell us a bit more about your V8 - is there any remarkable history about the car? Most V8 have a long story of owner and country (state) changes behind them and sometimes end up in or were sold to the oddest places. There are some running in Alaska and one is even located in Buenos Aires (!). Rumours say that there is one running on the caribbeans as well

I wish you a lot of fun and not too many problems with the car

Regards

Bastian

Hi Roy,

That is interesting. We have the same here – some folks trying to disarm the citizens. In essence, many laws are a violation of our Second Amendment to the Constitution, but they exist anyway.

By the way, I had a Sig P220 at one point. It was the first semi-auto pistol I bought for myself.

well, i'd like more my gran'pa's P210... it's more precise

Hi and a big welcome here in the V8 community,

my wife isn´t registered here, but nearly every time we meet in Altingen V8-Schmiede, she will come with me ans she drove a V8 by herself until i sold that bad car.
Now she drives two Audis; a 2,6 convertible and a 2,8 coupé

She loves those cars.

I by myself drive today a Chevy (P30 Workhorse) RV 32ft. Gulf Stream until saturday or sunday.

Then we have to go home because i have to go to work on monday.

Have fun here
