[I]I took my wife for her first long (2hrs) in our 1964 P1800S. I expected her to really enjoy it and alI I got were a lot of complaints about how noisy it was and that she could smell the engine. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised as she is used to our modern Audi.
Mmnnn......matrimonial issues do have a habit of being a weak area when the other half commits to taking a ride in our pride and joy.
There are some good sound deadening kits out there but there are also some awsome sound systems too, all you need to know is her favourite music!!
