Thanks to The Doug and a seller in Ohio, a rare, manual Allroad can be had. It’s no reserve, is eligible for a buyback guarantee, had the air suspension swapped out for coilovers — what could possibly go wrong?! As if this post, the current bid is $2k with a day left on the auction.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

As promised, Dr. Zoidberg bait!

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

$1900, but the auction ends at 3 pm EST TODAY.

UPDATE: SOLD for $2700

Besides everything? Nothing.

Yeah, weren’t these things... like... bad? I mean, styling wise I love the thing but I’m pretty sure Doug also hated these. Manual or otherwise.

I suppose I could buy this instead of the XJ...

While true, the use of EDT will confuse most people, not just Americans. Like a TV show advertised to start “Tonight @ Midnight” when Midnight is actually the beginning of an entirely new day.

ETA: plus you run the risk of someone being LATE by an hour.

Doug actually mentions that in his "Doug's Take", but says the manual transmission is stronger and more reliable and you no longer have to worry about the airbag suspension.

I guess he left home without a bob by pin and some plutonium.

But he does have a loose thread in his sweater and a belt holding up his khakis!  HE.WILL.FIND.A.WAY.

I was late by an hour to an important family event when someone used the wrong time zone.

Just say “Eastern” or “ET” if you want to be accurate without worrying about precision; being precise but wrong with “EST” is a poor compromise.

Just as soon as everyone accepts "Tomorrow @ Midnight"

But wait! You can take out a loan to really drive those bad decisions home. Which is convenient as the allroad might not make it that far.

Borrow extra for Ubers.

When running correctly, they are one of the best wagons ever made imho. The problem is the many thousands of dollars needed to keep them running right.

Yeah, Audis are expensive by nature. Though I stand corrected. I knew there was something dismal about the Automatic, but apparently the manual doesn’t suffer from the same faults.’

Good to know.
