Bulb has gone - and radio is locked/date reset so its probably got a flat battery/dodgy alternator.

Yes, with a bulb out and it thinks its still the year 2000 with rns deactivated. If disconnecting battery was to hide anything its probably raised suspicions now.........

I think they're actually C7 S6 wheels. Pop over to the rockin' S6 forum and you'll see a new one pre-prep.
