Almost New 2019 TTRS

I stumbled upon a gem of a {car|automobile|automotive}. I {got|acquired|bought|obtained|received} myself a panther black, 2012 TTRS with {only|solely} about 23k miles on it and {basically|mainly|principally} in mint {condition|situation} with two {sets|units} of tires and {some other|another} goodies {including|together with} APR stage 2, and catless downpipe. Got a {solid|stable|strong} {price|value|worth} on the {car|automobile|automotive} and {the former|the previous} {owner|proprietor} had {a good|a great|a superb|a very good|an excellent} service log of {everything|all the pieces|all the things|every little thing|every part|every thing|the whole lot} so I {bought|purchased} it. Leaving his {house|home}, i {got|acquired|bought|obtained|received} about 10 minutes down the {road|highway|street} and the engine {basically|mainly|principally} {started|began} to bog out and sounded like a diesel tractor. Had the {car|automobile|automotive} towed {back|again} to Duluth minnesota {where|the place} they {found|discovered} that cylinder 1 and 5 had no compression, and cylinder 1 had {metal|metallic|steel} shrapnel inside with {significant|important|vital} scoring on the cylinder wall. Couldn't {find|discover} {a good|a great|a superb|a very good|an excellent} {build|construct} quote and {the price|the value|the worth} {difference|distinction} for {a fully|a completely|a totally} new motor/turbo was {worth|price|value} it. Luckily {the former|the previous} {owner|proprietor} was {great|nice}, and since i {only|solely} owned the {car|automobile|automotive} for such {a short time|a short while}, gave a {fat|fats} {check|examine|test|verify} {to purchase|to buy} {a new|a brand new} engine, turbo and manifolds for the {car|automobile|automotive}. Out of pocket {I think|I believe|I feel} i paid 3k {extra|additional|further} for all that so {worth|price|value} it in my {book|e book|e-book|ebook|guide}. The motor swap is being {done|accomplished|achieved|carried out|completed|executed|finished|performed} at at Audi North Shore {here|right here} in Milwaukee Wisconsin. For {more|extra} {fun|enjoyable}, after they {got|acquired|bought|obtained|received} {the new|the brand new} motor {installed|put in} this Wednesday, they tried {starting|beginning} it and it {simply|merely} {wouldn't|would not} {turn|flip} over. 1700 I'm praying {i'll be|i will be} {done|accomplished|achieved|carried out|completed|executed|finished|performed} spending {money|cash}. For {someone else|another person}'s future reference, {a new|a brand new} motor/turbo setup for the 2.5T will run you about 21-22k {before|earlier than} tax. Motor alone is 18k for a {factory|manufacturing facility|manufacturing unit} new one, {but|however} {you can get|you may get|you will get} re-{built|constructed} ones for about 12-13k from what i've seen. On the {bright|brilliant|shiny|vibrant|vivid} {side|aspect|facet}, {i'll|i am going to|i will} have {an extremely|a particularly|an especially} low mileage, {rare|uncommon} {color|coloration|colour|shade} TTRS with a full {power|energy} {train|practice|prepare} {warranty|guarantee}. More {pictures|footage|photos} {to come|to come back|to return} as we {start to|begin to} work and {build|construct} this, after my {bank account|checking account} takes {a quick|a fast} {vacation|trip}. Plan is to rebuild the blown motor, and drop it {in the|within the} {old|outdated|previous} 2008 a4 wagon {someday|sometime}..{maybe|perhaps|possibly}.

Almost New 2019 TTRS

A Driverless Car Almost Killed Jeremy Clarkson

Jezza doesn't like self-driving cars!? Never would have guessed.

The UK’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, Philip Hammond, just declared that driverless cars will be on Britain’s roads within four years. His budget now includes provisions for companies to begin testing right away. Needless to say, some won't like Hammond’s decision. Not surprisingly, Jeremy Clarkson is one of those individuals. In his latest column for The Times, Clarkson issues a warning, so to speak, to Hammond (not the Hamster named Richard) about the potential dangers of driverless cars.

He’s speaking from first-hand experience. The Grand Tour host describes how he was nearly killed twice in a matter of minutes while driving a semi-autonomous vehicle on the M4 highway. “I drove a car the other day which has a claim of autonomous capability and twice in the space of 50 miles on the M4 it made a mistake, a huge mistake, which could have resulted in death,” Jezza said. Which make and model is he talking about? “We have to be very carefully legally, so I’m not going to say which one.” Bummer. However, this was enough to convince Jezza that self-driving tech is “still a very long way off. For now, we’re miles away from it.”

But why is Hammond and the current UK government keen on getting driverless cars up and running by 2021? Because it would boost the industry and create upwards of 27,000 jobs. Audi is one of the automakers that’ll begin testing self-driving tech in the UK next year. But Clarkson refuses to have anything to do with it (not like they were asking him). “You drive one of your driverless cars over the Death Road in Bolivia and I’ll buy one,” he said. “Sit there with your hands folded and let it drive you up there, then squeeze past a lorry with half the tire hanging over a 1,000ft drop while the car drives itself. Fine, I’ll buy into it.”

It Sounds Like Audi Is Almost Done With The W12 Engine

And the V10's future isn't looking too good either.

Engine downsizing is nothing new and it’s a trend that’s expected to continue. But what about the Volkswagen’s Group W12 which, needless to say, isn’t exactly fuel efficient. Nor are its V10s, for that matter. Speaking to Car and Driver, Audi R&D boss Peter Mertens admitted that “We will not have the 12-cylinder forever. There are customers who really want the 12-cylinder and they are happy with it and are going to get it. But this is going to be the last installation (in the 2019 Audi A8).”

So clearly the W12 isn’t going anywhere just yet, especially since it’s also utilized in Bentleys, where the twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter produces 585 hp. However, Audi does not offer the W12 in any other model aside from the A8, and even there it sells in fairly limited numbers, so once it’s gone its absence will barely be felt. Audi also offers a V10 engine, the 5.2-liter unit found in the R8 V10 Plus. Car and Driver also believes that engine will be the shown the door shortly as well. Audi believes future customers will be more inclined to opt for the upcoming twin-turbocharged V6 that will power the R8. It’ll not only be plenty powerful, but also more fuel efficient and cheaper as well.

But wait!? Isn’t this the same naturally aspirated V10 found in the Lamborghini Huracan? Yes, and it’ll be interesting to see Lamborghini’s future plans, though the V10 is expected to stick around in some form, just not in Audis. Mertens reiterated, however, that Audi is still totally committed to performance cars. They’ll simply be offered with smaller engines and, eventually, electrically powered.
