Hello people...
Newbie(ish) here. I have owned a few toys in my time... prior to this S4 I had a 2.8q - very dull!
The car I am getting is being sold by a dealer w/ 35k on the clock. Its imola & has blue suade recaros.
Its a facelift 2000 model & has been "chipped" and has an exhaust. What chip and exhaust gawd only knows - hoping you guys can help me out with my first steps.
I seem MRC? mentioned a few times... are they prefered over the likes of AMD? What should my first checks on the car be - what should I be monitoring over the coming weeks?
Cheers,
Leon

I am gagging!! its not even funny!
YOu going to be at pod on the 25th? I am going to MRC for a checkup at 10am then going down to pod... assuming they give the car a clean bill of health!! I think there are a few people off here going.

Well keep a look out for me and approach me please. I obviously dont know you guys, so someone to introduce me would be good. *cross fingers* MRC gives it the thumbs up
Thanks for the comments. I was very anxious about the seats till I saw them in the flesh this weekend! They look REALLY good and are not a problem with the yellow ext.
Anyways... I will update this once I get the car next week!
