Re: Replacement wheel advice

Any pics of the wheels? Are there unpainted surfaces? Diamond cut? Wondering how they’ve ended up corroded! Did the company that did the last refurb completely strip them down - e.g. acid bath? I’d expect a wheel refurb from a company such as Lepsons or Wheel Works (best ones I know down south) to l...

Re: Faisal's TT - The Turbo Hairdryer

First time out in 6m! The wang provides a cool mounting point for a camera... https://youtu.be/Rm-w-bwD3N8 The M3 and two caymans are fellow RS246ers - and the GT3 part of our group too. Excellent fun but I cut it short at lunch after a few spots of oil were spotted under the car after parking up. B...

Re: Faisal’s R8

Do the seats need to be from a 3 door i.e. do they tilt? Cheers Mine are but if you’re ok with them not tilting - I believe you could even put RS4 seats in. The RS4 Seats will have more adjustment but no tilt. These seats fit me really well so I’m fine without all the extra adjustment. Sent from my...

Re: I'm after a B7... - Mileage advice hugely appreciated

Mine’s coming up to 110k and in my opinion (and my mechanic’s) mechanically and cosmetically better than most cars regardless of mileage. I’d look for a car that’s been owned by an enthusiast. Someone that’s familiar with the common issues and has addressed them. DRC, oil cooler lines, aux rad leaks...

Audi Extended warranty - any experiences or advice?

Not on a B8, but I have the named component policy on my R8. When the front differential went, I was looking at a £6k bill and thought they’d try to wriggle out of it - but they covered it with no quibbles. They even gave me a free Audi watch and R8 mouse - which I flogged on eBay, and almost made b...

Re: WHEELS - What colour are yours?

Not a fan of black wheels on a black car.

Audi titanium (code L8AU) looks good IMO
