The one I saw had the 2.2l diesel, and apparently they only came with either a 5 or 6 speed manual trans. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...d17f214033.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...f79a0b7025.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b928fd8392.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...7a46f2115e.jpg

We’ve got two RS6 Avants now at the private school i work at. At least three E63AMG’s as well. The statement holds.Quote:

The fucking queen of Britannia drives a wagon

She could drive anything. But it’s a Jaguar wagon.
That they won’t bring to the US.
I smell a conspiracy here. We need more wagons!
PS. Does that qualify as a shooting brake?
Edit. No. Per wiki a brake can only have two doors.
That’s a Ford Contour wagon. Which we got.
But props to her majesty.
Mondeo Wagon in the UK, Jaguar X-Type over here. Dropped in 2006.Quote:

I remember when Acura came onto the scene it billed itself as a drivers car kinda manufacturer, where in the hell did they go wrong?Quote:

Whoa whoa whoa. An actual wagon is now not good enough to be a wagon? Moving the goalposts yeah? Sounds like something a Volvo owner might do? Lol
It is a wagon and because the market wanted cute utes they didn't sell many (10,000) compared to the RDX (200,000 plus in same time frame)
Did acura purposely drop a dud on the market or did they try to get a few people into the brand with an existing model with a new badge (accord wagon)?
Either way it will be honored as a modern wagon before they died.
Oh it’s every bit a wagon. I’m just wondering where Acura lost its way as a car manufacturer.
When they made the Acura ZDX.

The high water mark for Honda/Acura was the early 2000s. Honda knows it and basically admits it in their recent ad campaigns with the third gen Integra and first gen NSX. The new TLX Type S looks promising so there is hope. AWD and around 350 hp. No wagon option, though.Quote:

Those lines tho! SO CLEAN!!! I definitely prefer Audi's design language from back then. No fake tail pipes either. Sigh...
165k on the previous one with less than $2k/year of maintenance, timing chain tensioners still good. I beat the shit out of our cars. Slathered with mud halfway up the doors driving back and forth between Silverton and Silverton Mountain.Quote:

Nice one Buster, another N+1?
Wondering if Audi dropped a dud with the new A6 Allroad priced the same as the new Q8. Both can be bought for $60ish and honestly the Q8 looks a hella lot nicer IMO and I am not a SUV guy.Quote:
