I used to work for a few companies who taught and instructed at track days. On the "novice" section, you would typically start on a sort of follow the leader, to learn the correct line, and whilst doing this, we would encourage you to not use your brakes. This teaches you to use the gears, and...

I'm not a smoker, and I agree that it's not good for the kids, but once they get home they will be passive smoking, so unless there were to be a total ban, where's the point? Whether they inhale 20 a day at home, or 15 at home and 5 in a car, the kid is still inhaling.

It is, but that doesn't fall on a Sunday very often, so it is commemorated on the nearest Sunday.

I wonder, how does "throwing ones toys out the pram" slow your progress in fixing issues? Which compromise do you want to reach exactly? This is actually the first time I've been able to comment on anything in the last fortnight, because when I log in, I get the eggtimer, and nothing happens...

Actually, speed cameras can be any colour; what happened a few years ago, was that the police used to operate the cameras exclusively, and all of the money went to the government. However, in around 2003, (i think), the government introduced a thing they called "hypothecation", which meant that...

Perhaps some exclusive mats? Or a set of winter tyres?

AND..they drive on the wrong side!!

Perhaps you would get a better response were you to move this to the S3 section.

It good to see this, I'm doing a tour around Europe this summer, and I can try to ensure that I fill up in certain countries. I thought that we were probably the most expensive here in the UK, but now see that we aren't. Belgium, Germany, both more, even France is only 8cents (about 5p) a litre...

Hi, I don't have a diesel, so perhaps I am the wrong person to write, but on mine, I have drive select, which can be set to economy, dynamic, etc. In economy, it drives a little like you describe; have a look and see whether you have this, and what it is set to?

Tax disc.!

I had Conti's on my S4, they used to tramline terribly. Michelin are doing a deal at the moment, where, depending on the size, they will give you a fuel card with (in my case) £60, thereby reducing the cost of the tyre. It had completely cured the tramlining. don't know how long they'll last, as...

Hi, regarding the tramlining; my S4 really suffered with this. On my drive to work, I really had to hold the wheel firmly to keep it roughly straight! However, I have just had new tyres fitted, and instead of the Audi originals (contimax, I think) I went with Michelin as they were doing a deal...

What did he say?

I prefer not to have it, and use magnetic ones if I go abroad. I think they can look a bit "busy" with GB, or the flag.
