Facelift Heartwarming Moment...

So I'm heading home from work this afternoon, driving down the motorway, when a left hand drive Audi A5 with foreign number plate pulls up beside me in the right hand lane and stays level with me. I look over and the driver gives me a wave, nods at my car then gives me a thumbs up! I was quite gobsmacked, but it really made my day. I waved back in acknowledgment then he drove on. Couldn't stop grinning for the rest of the journey!

I had a man walk over to me in a car park this week to say 'that car is beautiful mate!' I was well chuffed so was my wee boy. There are some nice car people about.

Get used to it guys, I've had a loads of people either comment or admire mine. They may be understated but when you glance around the car park, petrol station etc there's usually nothing classier or better designed.

If you had one of these , I wonder how many admiring glances you'd get..............not many I'd wager. Friggin ell it looks like a boy racers version of an armoured car, random lumps of plastic thrown at it with no real thought about design!! lol

I get the same when i drop my daughter off at Nursery.
All the other Dad's have a good glance/nod when they see it.
My wife gets some odd looks when she uses it though, especially as she's 8 months pregnant at the moment! I don't think many people expect her to pop out the drivers door.

Had a fella and his missus come up to me asking about my car....They were comparing it to their Passat.......After about five minutes of chat he asked what size diesel engine it had.....:blink:
He also thought it was an A4.....So yeh there are people out there who like our Audi's.....but a lot more people who haven't a clue at what they are looking at..lol

I'm guessing the car/driver was from Germany, so might not have seen a facelift 3 door Navarra on the road. It just took me a bit by surprise!

That's the whole point, 99% it goes under the radar so when you do get a thumbs up or admiring nod its from somewhere who probably actually knows what they are looking at
