Not yet, need to speak to the insurance company and a few more bits and bobs before I commit to an offer. Don't want to rush into it either like I usually do.

It was stolen a few months back. No insurance payout either. It was at an Audi specialist when it was nicked who are a LTD company and just stopped trading at the same time leaving me ££££'s out of pocket. Long story. :(
Got a BMW 320D coupe M Sport as my daily driver now, good MPG and decent handling but v. slow. It is getting mapped on Saturday though!

Ah feck. Sorry to hear that. That sucks big time. I can't believe your insurance won't pay out.

I was worried when he told me he put body coloured mirrors and a black milltek on as the car was perfect as it was. I would still like the RS 6 mirrors but its just stunning, love it. Insurance is do able but I haven't declared mods... Which I would obviously have to do, hope it doesn't jack up the premium too much... Anyway, I'm going to think about it over the next few days.

He's taken off the GPS antenna I see. Ed's car was a good'un and well looked after. Then he sold it and bought an M5. :bash:

Think its due a cambelt now too. Not sure about the GPS antenna. Don't worry I'd carry on looking after it like Ed did. My old S8 went on display on the top floor of West London Audi around last year (biggest Audi showroom in the world) don't you know!? its going to be pro detailed then locked away most of the year and with MRC 20 mins down the road it would get the best care too. Ed, could you shed some light on why the whole car had to be resprayed?
