Although I'm thinking I might use it to convert a D2 Audi S8 to manual, or a C5 RS6 instead... The problem with either of these plans is I just bought another car last week, it's even more bizarre and obscure than the W8, so now I have absolutely no room for another VAG car. Forum post incoming on what I bought, its a very love ir or hate it car haha. Edited May 15, 2023 by Kees Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It can spin up in 4th gear under full boost on a wet motorway haha. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ll have one, one day. One benefit of the ForFour is it’s a proper 5 speed manual, whereas every Roadster is the robotised manual. My mum has a ForTwo as a run around with the same gearbox and it’s sooo slow. With much effort a Roadster can be converted to manual though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was only ever 1 manual wagon in NZ, going through the NZTA open data spread sheet it looks like it’s no longer around - I hope that wasn’t it! Got a screenshot?
