My car in Golf+ magazine soon.

[stapo69]

Just got back from the shoot for my feature in Golf+ magazine, so if anyone reads it keep an eye out in the next couple of issues.

Met up with David Corefield at a location just down the road from me to get some shots of my S4, and looking at what he took they should look stunning, the guy really knows his stuff! Thoroughly nice bloke as well, good to meet a genuine passionate enthusiast, plus he owns a lovley Audi Quattro, he loves the 4 rings with a passion!

I know this is a bit self indulgent, but why the hell not! My 1st feature car after years of graft spending a fortune building cars finally someone loved one enough to share it with the world!

This however is not the end of the build for this one, more major mods to come shortly, watch this space!

Good on you mate! Why not brag!? What a machine. Very nicely done! Love what you've done with the bentley wheels too! What size are they, 20's?

 

[Siena]

That's good, Stapo.

Nothing wrong with bragging - I'm jealous as hell!

 

[audinary]

Nice work Stapo.

I'm sure the moment someone launches "Standard Audi with Potential" magazine I'm sure to get a feature.....

 

[stapo69]

The wheels are 19s but I think as it sits so low and the tires are stretched and v low profile it gives the impression of a bigger wheel.

And as for Audi magazines the guy that shot the car used to edit Total Audi and apparently it's loooking close to getting it back on the shelves, which is good news, a decent Audi magazine for all things standard to fully modified, he's also trying to organize a decent Audi tuning show too.

 

[Siena]

That's good, was a sad day when Total Audi ceased publication.

Good work mate !!

Glad to see the hard work paying off

 

[Lee Goodall]

Nice one mate.. is an awesome car and you've obviously put a lot of work in. Well deserved

 

[Oranoco]

Cracking news mate, might even buy a copy.

Nothing beats the feeling of walking into a newsagents, picking a magazine up, opening the page and saying to yourself "That's my car".

 

[Nilz]

Nice one dude, i get excited seeing a pic of my car from a meet or a show, but seeing it in a mag, is a whole different ball game, well done

 

[Dan Glybitts]

Congrats Mate, don't blame you showing it off.

Nice motor.

PS, I'm loving the wheels.

 

[Geeman]

Awesome!

Inspiration for mine...

 

[Broken Byzan]

It is a great feeling, reading the article while queing to pay for it ! And then saying to the person, thats my car,lol

 

[stapo69]

Thanks for all the comments you lovely people!
I will be dropping small hints to them that it's my car in there....and standing next to it reading the magazine a lot! Just happening to leave it open on the seat every now and again!

 

[Broken Byzan]

Make sure you buy a spare copy.. Just in case you know.

Not that i have ever done that.... no no no !!

 

[stapo69]

that's a very good idea! Keep it safe and sealed for the grand kids!

 

[stapo69]

Couple of teasers for you I just recieved.

 

[Mr K]

[Dan Gliballs]

Awesome shots!!!

 

[sparkyvw]

[docurley]

The car looks great and well done for getting the shoot.

 

[S3 Rav]

what a cracking looking car!!!

 

[Phantom_A4]

Have to agree, looks absolutely awesome!!

 

[dest]

Car looks awesome
Were the pics taken at Wansford?

 

[Geeman]

I'm guessing the now un-used and near-derelict Little Chef on the A1 northbound...

 

[stapo69]

That's the one! I live in Wittering just up the road, we used it as it was a short notice shoot, classy place for a classsy car!

 

[A3-sport]

I was just thinking "I know that place" yer its the old Little Chef at Wansford off the A1 - good lad. Didnt know the guy with Bentley wheels on his audi lived so close!!

Thats awesome mate - gotta have a meet sometime then. I live in Bourne, just up the road. Not seen you about before.

Photos look awesome mate!!!!

 

[voorhees]

Ermmm tis not a Golf though

 

[Geeman]

Erm... that's why it's called Golf 'plus' = plus other VAG cars...

Performance VW sometimes has Audi's in too...

 

[voorhees]

I made sure I had a pic (well my S3) next to this S4 and have to say its the best I have seen recently,the wheels aren't my cup of tea and the air fresheners on the rear handle but the carbon and stance also interior are well worth this shoot.

Hey there's nothing wrong with "new car smell"! And the blue magic tree matches my paint! Sad I know.....

I was in Bourne on friday! Small world! We'll have to meet yeah, plenty of people round here I hang with, usually meet in Peterborough.

 

[stapo69]

Ermmm tis not a Golf though

Find me a modified Audi magazine and I'd try get in it! Like Geeman says though we have to make do with Golf+ and Performance VW, the German car scene is a welcoming one and all VAG is welcome, VW, Audi, Seat and Skodas all amke features and appearances.

Hopefully Total Audi will make a welcome return back to our shelves and we can have a place we can call home again!

 

[Geeman]

"Audi Driver"... didn't exactly fill me with enthusiasm when I used to read it back in the day when I had a couple of Coupes...

 

[stapo69]

Not the most exciting read is it!

 

[voorhees]

crap is the word to describe it best.

 

[stapo69]

Cool - only had the A3 a few weeks and well impressed. Will be good to meet up mate.

 

[A3-sport]

[stapo69]

Think the mag cones out this Friday, but not sure if I'm in this issue, more likely next months I think. I'll post when I know.
