It's booked into a different garage now to take a look a the ABS (it's still doing the warning thing).
on the economy front I was managing to get an average of around 30mpg up to about 32mpg max out of it. i guess it's not woefully bad but i've got a 110mile...

garage didn't have access to a vag com unit unfortunately so still not sure what the ABS light is on for...

....... and I am the lucky new owner! :cool:
hi folks - i'm Scott and this will be my first Audi, although i've always loved German cars - had 3 BMW's previously.
