Thanks for posting this.
It brought back memories of my Audi days. Both one of my most hated and one of my most loved cars were Audis. I always felt they were German cars built with an English soul.
My Lotus Elite had a plastic ball attaching the shifter to the transmission. It gave out just as I pulled out in front of the a crowd attending a small town's high school graduation.
My car looked like it could do 200 mph but was stuck in first doing about 25 mph while the shifter hung loosely in my hand (as were all who had attended the ceremony until I pulled off and let them by) .
