some questions about the coupé quattro 2.8 V6

[2.8V6]

Hi everyone,

I'm buying a 95 2.8 V6 coupé quattro next week if all goes well but I have a question about the headlights. I'm buying an English car but live in France I can't seem to find any headlights for the coupé quattro. Are they the same as the 80's headlights? Can they be adjusted for driving in France?

It's got 100 000 miles on the clock, new tires & brakes and has just been completely resprayed (black) so from the outside it looks brand new :) I'm getting it for £1500 does that sound like a good price?

Are there any bits to look out for before buying?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

welcome to the forum. sounds like a nice car. the headlights are specific to the coupe as the sidelights are part of the headlamp, rather than the indicators as per the 80. i think the 90 uses them as well though.

So does that mean the 90's headlights would fit? To drive it in France I need to change the headlights... I've searched everywhere on the Internet but as I'm not sure I can't find much.

I don't want to buy it to find out I can't find the headlights :banghead: :biglaugh:

Thanks for your help.

Classic Audi Forum might be able to help you source headlights.

The headlight issue is just left hand versus right hand drive.

This fellow in Latvia is selling B3 Coupe lenses on eBay USA (left hand drive):

Shipping is expensive to the US. Might be better to France.

Also, check out http://motors.ebay.de/. The German lenses will be for left hand drive.

Thanks for your replies, I've found some on ebay.de hopefully should have the car & new head lights by the end of the week :)

If I get the car I'll post some pics in the new members section.
