is the badge for the driver or passenger ?
might seem like a silly question but only asking cos i hope i`m not the only disabled driver, i only know of 1 other who drives a nice audi who`s disabled.
although most drive automatics i drive manual fully adapted !
hope i`m not the only 1 !

Evening Daz... badge is for my dad, albeit in his time he has owned a fair few nice audi's as he worked for them all his life.

The show was tops; it filled ten halls of the NEC, much bigger than the last time I went... its is seriously bad for your bank ballance
