Thnaks to Luke at Plush Automotive

Post by kavbhamra » Wed Mar 23, 2016 11:08 am

I took my RS6 down to Luke at Plush Automotive to have my H & R springs fitted as will as my Miltel Non Res exhaust which they ordered in for me. They also carried out some work on Mike's RS6.

I arrived at 9am and my car was moved into their workshop. I found Luke and his workers to be polite and helpful, they treated my car with respect and were professional in both their conduct and let me watch whilst they were doing the work. I was sniffing around the other cars which they had and Luke showed me some of the work they carry out.

I also purchased a set of carbon exhaust tips which Plush sell, they do this on an exchange basis :-). The car was done by 4pm and after they conducted a road test I was on my way back to London.

The results.

The exhaust is lovely, it bolted straight on and sounds lovely in dynamic mode. The springs were the 20mm drop and they give me the drop which I was after, I love the carbon tips shame you cant see more of them...its one of those mods which you need to point out to people but there the best ones.

I thought it would be nice to share my experience with them just in case others are also looking for similar kind of work.

here are some pics

Oh, and as I've said before, Luke and the guys come highly recommended from me.
They lowered my wife's RS3 too.

Westside...the lowering guru from e36coupe.com. :thumbs:

Finally gone all VAG, what with a G60 Rallye in the garage as well. Very nice.

I'm having the centre resonators deleted first. After spending thousands on exhausts on my RS4 I found the centre res delete to be the best and final configuration. Makes sense to start the C7 exhausts mods here.

That looks lovely - exactly how I want mine to sit! How do you find the ride on the H&Rs compared with oem?

Are you just going to take this to a local exhaust fabricator or does one of the brands sell a pipe off the shelf?

I'm taking it to a local fabricator. I may be wrong but Audis normally have the centre resonator directly connected to the back boxes so even if someone made one youd still need to cut the original exhaust to mate them to the new straight through centre section.
I saw that a couple of the aftermarket manufacurers make a variety if pipes and so on but it looks like they are made to be used with their back boxes.
