Audi RS4 Avant

chipped to 420hp



you can keep yer porsches

This is my pool/kite van
half work half recreation
also for chores and visiting family
I may have posted a pic of it before,

noteable today are the killer new wheels and tires
The mileage is what it is
its good at carrying heavy poolchemicals and equipment
(and party islands)
to keep all my best customers' waters sparkling
and squeeky clean

They get to relax or do laps
in warm germ and algae free water
and then pay me so I can afford fun kite stuff
which I use in clear to cloudy to dirty blue to green to brown water all year long

the Safari also delivers me to frozen water kite ride destinations
and also to water free, paved to dirt to grass surface four wheeled kite powered endeavours

If you can keep the hoof off of the wa wa pedal, it can get 25 mpg as it weighs nothing with the monster V8, but need to use the old 4x4 truck for the Baja off road trips as it just doesn't have all that much ground clearance. Only fit one all around surf/kiteboard in it with a couple of synergy kites as well. Compromises with most cars......

VW T5 tdi with long wheel distance!

space, space, space (for gear, for girls, for drinks and buddies)

Go for this and you wouldn't even need the kite

I count on this one..... Toyota Bandeirante
