Re: Geneva 2011

chatted to one of the techie guys today about the A3 Concept; 400hp from the 5 pot hints at a promising future ?? He also sugested RS4 in 2012. Had a chance to compare RS3 and BMW1M; RS3 looks rubbish, disapointingly mundane, something of E30M3 about the 1M. I liked it. Mansory were surprisingly tam...

Having bought from, and sold to, Meridien, I can say the cars they sell are easily amongst the best examples around; and that's not just their RS4's. You certainly can't compare their stock with main dealer offerings (something's not right with the Stafford Audi car when the same car with 20k miles ...

THULE SPIRIT 780 ROOF BOX

Used once, in excellent condition. Black, lockable (central locking), dual side opening, power grip mounting. It's really, really quiet. All boxed. Collection from Hampshire. Sadly, no actual images on the car, but try this http://www.takboxspecialisten.com/Bilkollage%20Audi.html Obviously, can prov...

PRORACK WHISPBARS B7 A4 AVANT ROOFBARS

Only used once, these are the AERO-X rail bars (S53 Kit) that go between the roof rails, rather than on top of them, keeping them really low profile. Virtually silent and easily the best looking roof bars available (if that's possible ?). Very easy to fit, too. Don't have any actual photos, but web ...

most of those look like mid black rather than limo black. I may have some better pics of one of the meridien cars (without the black optics) if you want with a limo black tint.

How dark do you want to go ?

Re: Just 4 Avants for sale on Audi Used Car Locater..

http://www.meridien.co.uk/usedcars.php?dgroup=4916&make=3 They seem a little shy by not telling the world some of these cars have Audi warranty remaining. There's no good reason to stay in the Audi network to buy this type of car. Specialist will often have better examples for realistic prices. An A...

Re: Possible Solution to Bolster Wear

Alcantara can be tidied with a sharp Stanley blade. This can be done at least twice in its life before needing to consider replacement. It won't look quite as new, but will look very very good.

Re: For the bikers here - roof rack question

Have you bought your roof bars yet ?

I've got a set of Whispbars for sale. Very flush and very quiet. Can't find the weight limit of their bike racks but worth investigating.

Re: Overpriced? but nice..very nice!

It's hard to pick fault with any of their RS4's really. Mine's one of the black ones they've currently got for sale; there's not a lot of margin in there so not a lot of room for haggling.

In the flesh, the red one is lovely. Not a fan of the optics either.

If costco don't have it or you can't get in, then ASDA had it for £30 just before christmas (4 litres).
