A sad day has came! my A3 Quattro will be going up for sale tomorrow, I'm massively going to miss this car, i've had it for 5 years now and it's gone from standard to modified to quite a decent standard (as far as stage 1 goes anyways, although it's got all the bolt ons ready for stage 2, i've just never got it mapped). Unfortunately i need a bigger car and fancied something more modern...

I'll still be around these parts of the board, I love keeping up to date on peoples projects and i plan on owning a 1.8t again one day, just not as a daily

Thankfully it's replacement is a bit alright! Very dirty in these photos (just driven 250 miles in rain wind and generally horrible weather!)

No shame in moving on with a suitable upgrade! The S4 is nice, I considered one, but went A6 instead, as I need a large boot!

I'll still be around, there's too many awesome builds on here at the moment that i want to keep tabs on. Also i'm planning to come up to castle combe for your charity doohicky and get myself a passenger lap!

The 1.8t is probably my favourite engine (at least up until now) so very interested in sticking around and seeing how things develop with it on the tuning side
 
Awesome! Make sure you say who you are before hand, I had one guy last year who only said who he was after we'd sat in the pit lane for 15 mins, done 4 laps on track, and come back in, and he mentioned who he was just as he got out!
 
Will do! I've gotta pop down to see Mr Miller on friday, he's obviously worried about my safety, he's asked to give the car a road test. Must want to make sure the car is safe to drive ;)

Well this makes me sad, won't get to see you A3 out and about around town now. New motor looks lovely!
 
Sad to see you go but an awesome upgrade there!!
 
And it's gone. Sold last night, but thankfully to a friend so it's only over in Saltash so i'll still get to see it out and about :)
