drgav-saw your good ladies RS3 when picking my Nardo one from Gordon at Defined Details today.
Looks great and pisxed off now I didn't spec the SS seats and red interior bits-looks great
The Catalunya was one I thought about.
Got to give a massive shout for Gordon again.Was there ever a guy who just quietly goes about his business and is a true perfectionist at really reasonable prices in comparison to most-which goes to show the most expensive don't mean its the best. Will look out for your RS6.

Hi Jim,

Your Nardo RS3 was looking great when we popped in - Gordon had just done your callipers. You got any photos of it yet?

It will be in interesting to see the better half's RS3 clean... it was utterly untouched by the garage and still had a lot of the wrappings on when we delivered it to Gordon. Must admit, I love the interior - it's absolutely cracking and the missus is delighted with it. It rides a lot more smoothly than her A45 AMG and makes a great noise. :redrs4:

Like you say, Gordon at Defined Details is excellent - would highly recommend him to anyone in Central Scotland. A true perfectionist and as you say, his prices are very reasonable for the work he does. The ceramic coating he applied to my RS6 is bloody magic - bird poo just hosed off in seconds yesterday, normally takes ages to soak off the stuff from the local pterodactyls! :thumb:

Got rid of the garage plates today - quality of them was rubbish... got an excellent gel set made up from a guy on eBay for £30 delivered:

Catayluna Red... Her first words were "Oh. That wasn't what I was expecting..." :shock:

Thankfully followed up with "... I LOVE it" :nodder:

Should get it back on Monday or Tuesday next week - I'll stick some pics up.

Nice.

Getting it lowered? Makes a difference!

Haven't had a chance to - the better half hasn't stopped driving it! She loves it - the AMG was too noisy for her. The next door neighbour commented that she'd changed her car and now he got an extra 1/2 hour sleep in the morning :lol:

Interior is great - lovely steering wheel. MMI system is good - like the way the touch pad is on top of the selector dial. Car is very smooth and feels pretty quick from the passenger seat. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on the keys. Saying that, I can't stop driving the 6 at the minute - I absolutely love it :thumb:
