Great day at Audisinthepark posted clip of the cool lights that you can have fitted on your Audi by EM Tuning at Wellingborough, I’m booking my car in this week

I saw the lights on their stand, they look really good. How much are they of you dont mind me asking?

Here's my A4 Avant that I collected last week. It's a 40th Birthday present off the wife and kids 

I have only had mine a week, but the Audi dealer did give me a bottle of oil with the car and told me just to check monthly and top up as needed.

I was just watching the Midlands news and there's a big increase in keyless start car thefts, especially Audis.

I have one of those wallets to put my key in so it doesn't transmit a signal, but I wondered if anyone uses a Steering wheel lock and if so which one and what do you think?

I have read the ones that cover the whole wheel are the best but they look heavy and bulky and a pain in the !Removed! to use every day.

Would be great to see you at Audi's in the park Rob 🙂 just remember when you turn up at 10:30 to ask.to go to the green zone as that's where our display is going to be.

Cheers

Steve

Thanks Steve, will do 😀

Haha thanks, I didn't think I would be missed because I hadn't been on here long. The A1 is still in the family as well because I let my brother have it for the trade-in value. We are hopefully both coming to Audi's in the Park. 

I haven't been on here for 6 months.

To cut a long story short. I was having really bad shoulder problems so replaced my Audi A1 with a Ford CMax because it was automatic and in my price range. 

My shoulder is now sorted and I find the CMax so boring to drive and look at.

I am so excited because it's my 40th Birthday in a few weeks and my wife told me to treat myself to a car I like to own again. So on the way home from work today I bought a 2016 Audi A4 Avant Sport 1.4 TFSI. It is so nice to drive. I pick it up on Tuesday 😁😁😁

It's good to be back.

Your hair or the car??

 

hahaha 

Both - I only wash my hair when I wash the car. 

I watched it for the first time on TV this last season. The British round is at Silverstone for the first time this year. I am tempted to go and watch http://www.silverstone.co.uk/events/speedmachine-fia-wrx-championship/

Mine is the same. I am washing it tomorrow because I cant take it any longer!!

As the others have said the  boot protectors are good, they are self adehsive. I had one of these on my Mini to cover scratches. I am considering one for my A1 to protect the paint.

cheers Rob, was not as hard or time consuming as i thought it would be to clay and Piotr was right after claying EVERY mark and chip showed up lol but even so the paint work is now smooth to the touch i`m glad i did it now only thing left to do is refurb the alloys still not decided on colour yet want to go black or maybe red

A smoke grey colour would look good.

*edit* the colour I mean is anthracite 

looking good 

The clay bar made a huge differences on my A1, this was it after polish and seal.

my pride and joy :)

Who did you have locked in the boot? They made loads of scratch marks trying to get out 😃

I have shades specific for my car from www.carshades.co.uk

The only Extra couple of steps I use is a clay bar before the polish and a decent wax after the polish. The wax protects the paintwork as polish takes off a very thin layer of paint.

How's it going Paul? Can't wait to see the photos of it done.

That helps Rob lol

Sorry mate, it's when I use my phone it sometimes puts in the quote but doesn't give me space to type.

My proper reply if above 😀

I haven't used that set but this one is good for the money that my brother used http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductMobileDisplay?catalogId=10151&langId=-1&categoryId=165671&productId=1280021&storeId=10001

I personally always go for Meguiars and it's 3 for 2 at Halfords so you can make your own set

Baggy, that was a beauty for sure. 

I have an early fireblade. Never ridden it though lol.

Early Fireblades are becoming collectors items. That's good investment for the future 😀
