Had my mirrors stolen!

Post by Dom81 » Tue Nov 06, 2007 11:22 pm

OS & NS mirrors snapped off the car last night, in central / west London (W14)

Not really sure why I'm posting here (because you all HAVE the chrome S4 mirrors) but would appreciate anyone letting me know if you're offered another set!

Thanks

Hi Dom,

Bad news re your mirrors.

The original owner of my S4 specced it to have body colour (black) mirrors. I've considered replacing them with chrome mirrors, but I've spoken to a couple of Audi dealers who say it's not worth it (unusual for Audi!) due to the large number of thefts.

Good luck getting replacements.

I would get a cheap set and throw them on or at least have a set and when you sell, take photos with the chrome ones on.

Thanks both. It's a company car that's survived nearly 4 years without incident, and I need to return it with original spec - so it's in the bodyshop at the moment under insurance

Funny thing is that my RS4 was only a couple of yards away, but thankfully it was untouched. I'd have thought those mirrors were much more desirable?!

Was gonna get the alloy mirrors but I've been hearing about the thefts of them. And our survey said......XXXXXX. I'll stick with the colour coded ones.
