The a4 is going to sleep for a bit...

[J Ozzie]

So guys some things have come up and on that note i will most likely have to take the A4 off the road for a month or 2. No she wasn't in an accident... I really don't know what to do for meets.. un less someone would take me along with them. Its not for sure yet but it looks like this is what will be going on... I'm pretty pissed off about it and yeah... ill let you all know...

[allen@simplytire]

Tickets... insurance related ?

nah ive just gotta pay back some bucks... so if the car goes off thats an extra 480 if its 2 months of insurance..or 240 for a month..plus gas id be spending... so prolly save 480 in the month.. It harsh sucks, quite pissed...but its how shit goes some times.. This way i can do some new things to the car as well.

[RippleChip]

Damn you pay 240/month for insurance.

[MagnusS4]

mines been tucked away since early November , only a few more months of waiting!!!

[Cottonmouth]

I only pay about $105 for my 06 B7 A4

[J Ozzie]

yeah i pay 240 with a -20% discount... -25 this year!

[buck]

Dang.... $240/month is steep. I'm $190/month, with a few speeding awards, and a motorcycle.

If you don't tell us why, I'll just assume it's a loan shark payback.

i pay 260/month for full coverage 2million liability insurance (26 + 1speeding ticket)

not that ive heard of, yeah i got like full everything which is why its crazy high. im going to call insurance today

[MagnusS4]

no going on and off insurance won't affect your rates. I've been doing this for the past 3 years for winters, long term work on the car, etc. as long as you give them a legit reason for doing it i don't think they will have a problem and won't raise your rates.

only a couple years older than you guys, and wife is actually about the same age. Maybe your location sucks? When I lived in Toronto, it was about 15-20% more expensive. Or maybe your insurer sucks. Try to go through a group plan. Sounds obvious but you'll get a better deal. Try through work, or through your bank, or something. University...anything.

[J Ozzie]

all depends on your discount

[SebringSilver]

Actually, even your registered address has an impact on your insurance premiums. If you have a downtown address, your premium is lower than if your address is in, say, Richmond.

I'm not kidding.

[J Ozzie]

really damm

Yep, pretty well for any big city. I know Markham is one of the highest in the GTA area out here, my insurance went up when I moved from North York to Markham.

Hey Tugboat, what colour is your B7? Did the '07s come with the BBS wheels? I've noticed a lot of B7 S4s lately that don't have the BBS wheels, but they don't look like aftermarket wheels either. They look more like the older Audi Avus wheels. Is that what came on your car?

Dolphin Grey. No BBS unfortunately, 07's came with 18's with 7 pairs of spokes. Same style as the 17's on the A4 with 5 pairs.

Good to hear that its not a serious deal. Just put fire/theft on the car and take it around the block when the 'rents aren't home! Just don't get in any type of accident our you'll have to take the car off of insurance for a long long time to pay for it!

Oh, I see. Mine is Dolphin Grey as well. Hmmm...maybe I should have posted the details here, we had a car meet today in Vancouver and Audi's honours were defended by a solitary RS4. It'd be nice if a few more Audis could have turned up.

Oh well, maybe next time.

kinda hard to turn up if you dont post the details buddddayyy

Sucks to know the primary organizer of the meetups is grounded.

I'll offer up a ride to the next big meet if you keep rounding up people to attend. I personally haven't seen someone with so much passion to get people together.

You should hit up the local Audi Club chapter and be their events co-ordinator!

BTW... $240/month for insurance is insane! I'm around half of that for the wagon.

[SebringSilver]

Here's a few pics of the attendees.







I kind of felt sorry for the RS4 being all alone. Maybe I should have driven the S4 instead.

Still, it was a pretty fun afternoon, driving through the ridiculously thick fog on the highway only to find that it was a beautiful sunny day out in Abbotsford.

Nice cars in those pics and I see Ritesh's white 335 there.

Where was the meet at?

We met up at the Bloedell Conservatory at QE Park, and then drove to Abbotsford International Airport (YXX). It was a blast. Can you get him to wash his car next time, or better still, fix his windshield?

[fetched]

240 is reasonable for your car since ICBC tends to rip anyone that isn't a roadstar I paid 330 a month for my insurance on the 04 A4 Sedan, including travel from/to work/school within 12km i believe. With 10-15% discount.

[Tugboatguy]

Ya! So I could have been at a car meet, instead of wandering around Fort Langly looking at really pathetic "Antique's" with the wife.

[Tanner]

Well it could be worse, you could have NO car and rely on mom to drive you around or public transportation. Not saying that there's anything wrong with that of course.
