Greetings from Botswana

Hi Guys,
Great forum here. I have been skulking around this website and looking into the informative posts and the general banter going around. Nice forum.

Alright here is a quick intro:
I recently bought an audi a3 3.2 (2005) through a friend in the UK. He bought it from Woodside Motors.
Specs
Manual, HPI cleared, Symphony audio with Bose, Electric heated seats, Light Sensor, 29000 miles (Checked it online through the method posted on the forum), all the other standard jazz. Cost a bit because of the low milage.

The car is on a boat on its way to me In Botswana and Boy have I gone haywire.
I decieded that I wanted to change things on the car before I even got it so here is a list of stuff I have bought whilst waiting for the car:

As it stands that is the upgrades for the car that is yet to arrive ...

The car looks like this as stock:













So I did speak to Nigel briefly about upgrading the lights while the car was still in the UK but was not able to do so due to time constraints.

Thats right folks - You guessed right, I will be doing it all myself. Maybe engage an audi technician along the way.. I shall keep updating it as I make progress.

Ciao

Thanks for the encouragement and feedback guys...
I guess there is the likelihood that the thread will go dead till i ACTUALLY physically receive me car


Cheers.

To be honest I am not the biggest fan of those rims, but getting down another set from the UK would be the most expensive endeavour I can undertake.
I am not sure whether to go all out after market or get replica RiMs.

I am looking at different options. Time will tell.


The fog lights, i did not know I needed H11, i told the guy who sold them to me to confirm they would work on my car and he said yes, If they dont work, I will demand a refund and or issue a bad rating (I kid, maybe we will resolve it as reasonable adults through dialouge)
