You bought yourself a lemon! The steering wheel's on the wrong side of the car! The park job in that 3rd pic made me pause too.

OK....I know this is a newbe question, but if you have a right hand driver with a manual transmission.....where is first gear? Let's assume it is a four speed. Here in the good old USA first gear would be "top left" assuming you are sitting in the "normal" left side. Where is it on the other side of the pond?

[Christopherrr]

if I'm not mistaken...gear selection is the same...

13
24R

or

R135
246

you get the idea...

That's a very nice car. I really don't like Audi's new look with their latest cars....you know......the ones with an Edsel front end But the older ones like yours have classic good looks. I hope you enjoy it. Your pocket book will when you have to buy gasoline.

well, everything is the same, pedals, gears, turn signal, its just moved on the right side. The worst thing is that theres not much of a footrest..and shifting to second wich I always liked has to be done with the left hand nothing you cant get used to

My daughter just bought a new Jetta 2.5L that looks alot like your Audi. Even has lite bulbs all over when you open a door. Hers has the steering wheel on the left side though.
