Vehicle registration will be 2010;
MY is already 2010, I am aware of that. New style side mirrors etc etc.
Hence my comment on depreciation. I'm timing it as close to 2010 as possible but taking December delivery. I take it you don't have a temporary registration process good for 3 weeks...
I ordered my B8 S4 today :rockwoot:
Dealer has 4 allocations arriving in South Africa from September onwards, 1 per month until December.
I managed to slip a custom spec into the system and will be taking delivery late November/early Dec.
STronic Yeah baby !
This gives the chaps at...
Driving fast with kids in the car ? no - I think not.
Trying to get the kid inside the TT with ease - again - I think not.
It's more about practicality,in other words having the flexibility when I need it, together with a refined B8 S4 platform which to me seems to be the logical next step...
I love that colour as well come to think of it - seen it on the web a few times but not sure what it's like in reflective sunshine ie. not in the shade / cloudy lighting...
Is that lava grey or meteor grey by any chance ?
S5 mags (I think?) look the part as well ...
S4 definitely needs...
Lol - edit : barely afford. Small little nest egg I've been saving to put a large deposit down to minimize any impact on my monthly income. Rest of my disposable cash is going into diapers, paed visits, and anything else my wife points to and says "we need that for Michael" ...
Plus he's the...
Lol. South Africa is not hugely popular Avant country ... resales tend to suffer a bit more on them as well.
Still not sold on how big the A4 looks in current Avant shape. Kind of like it's been "supersized". Although having said that - the panoramic roof option sounds appealing.
Decisions...
Hi Guys,
I've had my S3 since June 2007 and since then our family needs have grown.
Our first born arrived last week and somehow, even though my wife has the new Freelander II, I really want us to have a second vehicle that has 5 doors and large boot space, and will still give me a grin...
That can easily be fixed with a performance exhaust.
The TTRS comes standard with signature RS exhaust tone and sport mode.
S trim models are rather muted. Take the S3 for instance - it BEGS for a custom decat DP or Miltek system.
imho the new S4's engine should sound glorious with an...
Yip. Was stuck in gridlock traffic for 30 minutes in neutral/1st gear/neutral about a week ago. Saw round about the same number. Reached for the asthma pump. Barely survived. lol.
That's exactly what I had after having Revo Stage 2+ and a decat DP fitted.
Dealer replaced the clutch, flywheel and pressure plate (entire kit of parts) and she's perfect now. Stonking is the word that comes to mind.
Actually the flywheel is what gives the game away here under load in the...
I've just pulled myself off the floor having to recover from the crying laughter fit.
Was thinking the same thing and you went and said it ! good on you.
Whip a CAI in, fit the HPFP, get a performance exhaust and visit Revo for Stage 2+, next step is shares in a publicly listed petroleum...
Dude - I'd rather not and here's why:
I'd be afraid if everyone simply went to them and said "I want the Sachs clutch. I think I have a LUK and it's not up to scratch".
To be honest - my clutch never ever felt right from the day I picked it up from the dealer. It always felt waaaaaay toooooo...
2 or 3 from this forum and the SeatCupra forum. Unfortunately didn't save the links but a general search for "slipping clutch" and "sachs clutch" did the trick.
Rabbit - it appears you too are unLUKy...
So from my perspective - if your clutch feels far too feather light (stock or modded) and...
100% right.
I did provide them with all my "research" from the forums and the technical manager took the car for 2 test drives and agreed the clutch was no good. He also said that it should easily manage a chip, intake and exhaust decat, and actually loved the feel of the car with the...
Well lads,
I'll try and keep this as short as possible.
I recently had Revo Stage 2+ and a decatted downpipe fitted to my early 2007 build week S3.
I was extremely impressed with the power and torque gains, espcially given that I was making about 8kw and 30nm more in the middle of the...
Okay ... Wusman's here to lay the smack down.
I trotted off for a nice drive this morning to Springs to visit Uncle Bjorn, as I shall now affectionately refer to him.
In case you were all wondering ... Uncle Bjorn is the new Jo'burg rep for Revo y'all.
Bjorn spent some time checking...
