Just picked up my new car last night.
2.5 tdi steptronic, superchipped to 200
Silver with full GMBH, chrome 19" RS4s.

Quite possibly the best looking avant B6 out there, pics to follow soon after i've given it the showroom treatment at the weekend /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jump.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/woohoo.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jump.gif
 
Sounds nice Trekbiker looking forward to seeing those pics mate! Sounds like Christmas has come a few months early for you! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
 
Basically, i wasn't too impressed with the way it drove, and sold it for the same as what i paid for it to a guy in Scotland. this one is much more 'me' /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ok.gif
 
That looks an amazing spec, already! Can't wait to see these wheels and seats.
 
needs a good polish, thats what i get friday afternoons off work for /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/groovy.gif
 
Wow she looks amazing ...unusual interior with the red strip! Absolutely immaculate though and those smoked RS 19's looks the nut! A definate great example...think you have something a little bit more special than the norm trek. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ok.gif
 
thank ya.

i will be holding onto this one, not selling after a few months like i normally do. getting Phatnoise next week, then possibly cruise soon /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/MexWave.gif
 
Is she quick with the chip have you taken her out for a good run on the motorwat yet? Whats the performance, any negatives (not on looks anyway) Cooooool /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/woohoo.gif
 
not taken her above 85, i rarely do unless i'm pos that there's no 'rabid ice-cream vans' parked on flyovers. doesnt seem as rapid as the 2.5 Q i had last year, but perhaps that just cos that was a manual and you need to change gear about half a second after hard accereration.

V6 owners will be all to familiar with this. 0-4500rpm in a blink of an eyelid. The steptronic takes away this worry & hassle. I have pushed her a bit around some of MK's many roundabouts and to be honest(in the dry) it doesn't seem to handle any worse than the Q did. perhaps i'd better wait for the autumn to make that judgement though /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/comeon.gif
 
I've just been watching that on Ebay! Ended this morning, didn't it?

It looks the dogs danglies mate.

Love that bodykit and love the wheels.
 
thanks.
yes it did, however i have owned it since monday!!

he wasn't sure how to end listing early
 

Sits lovely on the 19's /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ok.gif

Very Very nice.

Must say the first owner had some bottle to go for the interior /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I bought it from the orgiinal purchaser-apparently the first in UK with that combo(and the only perhaps??)

TDI-

i wasn't too impressed with the way it wallowed around MK's plethora of roundabouts. Great M way cruiser though /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh_roll.gif
 
That's gotta be of the nicest looking B6 Avants I've seen in ages. I like it!

Mucho gracias /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
 
Very nice indeed. Wish my Bro's looked half as good. Also liked the S3. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ok.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ok.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ok.gif
 
Looks really good trek - and a nice choice of colour /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ok.gif

How do you find the 19's ride quality?
 
Simon
seems ok so far, but havent driven it much. just about to go out tomorrow after being abroad for 10 days. No worse than the 18s that i had on my S3 thats for sure /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush2.gif
