Just catching up again after ages away. Jake, I don't know if you got those wheels as there's been a change of season since, but don't forget the centre bore of the C6 was smaller than on the C7. I had those on my C6 allroad and it's a shame they wouldn't fit my C7 but I've bought a nice set...

3,2,1,5,4 but you've probably decided already. Not a fan of two-tone but I've probably got a kipper tie somewhere too. Matte/satin finish copes with winter conditions better in my opinion.

Not been on here for a while, but catching up with allroads. Like your old car and the new one too. I just wish Audi would allow a BE version of the allroad with black optics. Love your dog by the way. I too have Black Edition labs. ;) They're named after grandparents' middle names, so on...

I can't take any credit for this, but someone "elsewhere" ;) has found that 3's 12GB 12 month prepaid SIM is now down to £30. Since it's specifically a data SIM (but can do SMS too) there's no issue with device incompatibility that scuppers some of their conventional voice+data SIMs and makes...

I don't connect to the car's hotspot as my mobile has uncapped, unthrottled, unlimited data and use under 200MB per month mostly on the same (cached?) 5 hour route with maps, traffic and a few fuel price queries etc Freedom Pop's free 200MB SIM is just perfect, but I confess to a bit of data...

I don't think you'd be disappointed by the 3 litre diesel. I have the 245 PS variant in my A6 allroad. I ordered my previous (C6) allroad the day before the last A4 allroad was announced, but went with the order as the price differential was too slim vs the spec. I wasn't disappointed. The...

Yeah, I think black optics and black headlining should be an option on every car, even if not free. With chrome I have just one color option to "dilute" it - white. I've never had a BMW, but at least you can get black optics. There's also way too much chrome internally on switchgear etc. for...

Oh yeah. Forgot to say that the raised level comes in handy on flooded roads - somewhere I wouldn't want to take an RS. Same for snow covered roads.

A bit like asking why there are different colours! Yes you can jack it up at low speeds which are the sort of speeds you travel at on bumpy roads. Although I could probably do 70 on my drive I wouldn't want to, and it's nice to be able to make it to the house in more conditions than I could in...

Unique allroad (marmite) colour and you've got the upgraded 19" wheels too. Well done. I'd be interested in the roof box etc. if I were closer (I'm in Scotland), but I've got to shift some wheels and tyres from my old allroad first...

October apparently. Don't like the split spoke effect, but I'd fit 18s with off-road tyres anyway...unless you're talking about the whole car - in which case I'd say that J Lo's got a fat ***, but....

Just noticed a new trim level that gives Alcantara instead of cloth, bigger wheels, Xenons, privacy glass etc. Anyone know how long it's been available?

When I got my C7 it had this feature and in the early days there were a couple of instances where I initially forced it. I've not had any issues, but would prefer if it could be deactivated as I find it slow and of no advantage. I actually wish Audi had spent a few hundred quid elsewhere and...

Andrew. I think the confusion comes from the "title" in your link at the bottom of your post, compounded by the linked picture showing a diesel device despite the petrol application. Meant as positive feedback not as criticism. I'm now hoping you can find a solution for my 3 cylinder 69PS 1.2...

Might be worth trying Bolton Audi which is part of Inchcape who supply/have supplied DTD.
