SPOTTED: Austria Ski Team's Audi A6
 
http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._1200467_n.jpg

Saw this car driving from Richmond to Vancouver on the Knight St Bridge.

Its a Audi A6 2.7 TDI wagon, which I don't think we have here.

It said "AUSTRIA SKI TEAM" and "SPONSORED BY AUDI" on the side of the car.

The driver looked like your typical german dude with glasses talking on the phone. (obviously doesnt know about our new ban on phones while driving)

nice..

i also see many 2010 audi A6's with yellow plates all around downtown..

dunno where they are from tho...

tofu1413 02-08-2010 11:37 PM

apparently it is legal for them to drive here as long as they are insured for "out of country use"

The_AK 02-08-2010 11:41 PM

too cool

Harvey Specter 02-08-2010 11:43 PM

There must be other cool cars floating around Downtown.

you can legally drive an european plated car as long as its insured for "out of country use" from, say, germany?

i would love to have those plates permanently, they belong on european cars, not some white or olympic themed rectangle

Datsun 02-09-2010 05:34 PM

That's pretty cool.
Anyone have pics of those yellow plates?

According to a friend that worked at Mercedes, there are a few Maybachs registered in Vancouver. I haven't actually seen one in person either though.

AND remove the car when your visa expires. You cannot have it plated here permanently.

Russians have A6s, Passats, Q7, Q5 and a few black escalades, and a few black 300Cs
I drove Malkin around today, and my bro, Ovechkin in one of those.

Harvey Specter 02-22-2010 11:18 PM

I seen the Russian A6's around with the Russian vinyl stickers all over it.
