RS03 - number plate

Hi,

Just lost my RS6 in the Carlisle floods.
Number plate could be of interest to some on here...
RS03 ZRS.

Any idea of prices/interest?

Thanks,
Nick.

Lower N/S bumper mesh/grille?

Some thieving bugger has nicked this part of trim :rant:
Has anyone a spare bit knocking about or know of anyone that does?

Thanks,
Nick.

Re: Battery dead

Daily without fail! And usually a decent weekend run.
Had a few sluggish starts a couple of months ago and never since.

Battery dead

Well after a fine weekend and no troubles, came to start car yesterday evening and completely dead.
Jump started and took it for a decent run out.
Alarm set for 5:30am this morning and car turned over before dying.

What batteries have you guys got and what do you recommend?

Thanks,
Nick.

Re: Time to panic?

Not sure how good the local garage will be at diagnosing this...
Is the level easy to check?
Easy to drain?
How much does it take to refill?

Thanks :)
