Well, looks like you made a fool of me again.

Hard to imagine that those engines are practical. I was looking at buying an Audi A4 from the like 02 I think that had a VR (no longer in use).

...only in Germany (and maybe Japan, maybe).

No VR6 on a A4 ;)
The A4 uses a longitudinal engine layout - they use real V6s for it :D

I think that all AUDI V6 are based on the first V8, eg. 90 degree. Even the V10 AUDI engines are 90 degree.

Wider engines, but more space between the heads for manifolds.

And then you have the Volvo V8, designed by Yamaha, 60 degree because a full 90 degree engine would not fit in the engine bay of the S80 Volvo. (transverse layout)

If I recall correctly the VR6 motors were used in any Audi that was a 3.2L capacity. So the Audi TT, the A3 and apparently at times in the Audi A8, A6, A4 and A5. Any other capacity of Audi V6 is a proper V6 mounted longitudinally.
