    My new S3 Black Edition - Brilliant black

    Difficult question as it depends on distance etc but on a drive as you describe I see about 23-24 although if I go out just to do a 30 min back road blast I see 17-20!!!!! I think your figs are normal if there isnt any "cruising" in there and it's all flat ut or stop start?

    Goodwood FoS Run/meet

    I'll be heading down from the Tonbridge area on Friday 29th. Seeing as I'm going anyway I thought I'd see who else is and if we could get a group together to go down on a run. Stop of some breakfast etc? Can meet in Kent or on the way down - whatever works. What do we think?

    iPad/iPhone app?

    Apologies if this is a repeat request. I've noticed that a number of forums now have an app which allows the thousand of forum users on apple products to view the site easier, post photos and become even more involved. I've no idea what is involved technically or cost wise, I just know I'd love...

    audi a3 owner from kent :)

    No I went over to a Pistonheads meet there to chat through their options as I'm a bit anal when it comes to swirls etc ( why did I buy a black one). Mine is on a late 10 plate and they said it would be worth doing but not for a year or so given the condition now is so good. I will definitely be...
