    what do you think?

    What a massive improvement with the wheels mate - really suit your car I think I'm opting for the black calipers....not sure if silver will 'interfere' with the facial appearance of your rims ?

    S3 Sportback 10 plate - condensation in both headlamps

    Are they xenon lamps ? If so, this is a common 'fault' (if you can use that term). I had it in one off my lamps on the TT, and just as you put, after a sudden downpour. Check all plastics around the area to make sure there are no cracks, and just have a look at the back casing of the lamp to...

    Climate Control probs ?....

    Thanks guys. I tested it again Today, and it looks like I may have had a 'Krim panic attack', as when I switched it on this afternoon (when it was nice and warm outside) it kicked up the speed to regulate the temperature, and brought it down real quick. Thanks for the replies though - I'll...

    Tyre blowout on A13

    Sheesh!! That's some scary pictures there mate. Glad you're okay though (1st), and glad the motor didn't end up elsewhere too (2nd). I think I'd have ended up sitting in the car wondering what the hell to do at first as well. It totally throws your brain out of sync when these type of things...

    Climate Control probs ?....

    Hi, Not sure if it really is a prob, but I think my Climate Control has stopped regulating - if I switch on 'Auto', as I normally would when using the CC it starts of with a few bars on the display and kicks in after a few seconds to start regulating the temperature in the car. Well, it...

    Opinions needed - Wrap or Re-spray ????

    ^ true. But I think the way most people look at it is that they wouldn't keep a car that long anyway - the wrap can still be removed before selling up too - it's just the chips and scratch/key marked issues that would concern me.

    Opinions needed - Wrap or Re-spray ????

    I'm voting for spray - if you have a later scratch that you can catch your nail on with a wrap, it can't be corrected as well/easily as a 'normal' bodywork scratch.....usually meaning you'll have to have the entire panel re-wrapped.

    Couldn't resist a few pics Today....

    digzz : sorry to hear about yours getting curbed mate....that sucks - I just park like a granny, edging in, backing out, edging back in, backing out again, until I finally get in 'near' the kerb, but not toooo close using the mirror button thing ;-) pi : it's Misano Red mate. It has a very...

    Oooh....I DO like that. Can I ask how much ?

    Couldn't resist a few pics Today....

    Hmmm.....yes...very true indeed. I just keep bottling out of having them wheels removed, and get the shakes when I see the lane I have to drive up and down every day. I just wish there was another A3 Sportback S-Line out there that had Eibach 50/40mm lowering springs on it so I could see...

    Couldn't resist a few pics Today....

    Took a few more pics Today of the li'l A3.....it must be the sun that just forces me to start pointing the lens... :sm4:

    I popped in Audi to get a few bits and.....

    I just wonder if they'll bring out a RS3 diesel in a couple of years time, like they did with the TT Mk2. I just so wish they 'beefed' it up a bit more - rolled out arches a bit wider...nothing OVER dramatic, just something more than what they've aesthetically given us.... ....it's probably...

    I popped in Audi to get a few bits and.....

    That to me is a very disappointing attempt at beefing up an A3, and a simple excuse for Audi to rake in the extra £'s from people who aren't too concerned about 'looking' different. In fact, I was shocked to read under the pics that that IS an RS3.... ....the more I look, the more MY car...

    For me, it just makes the best of both worlds - it gives me colour, and something that has reflection too....very useful when you can't put down a machine polisher (I've got issues, I know) :icon_thumright:

    PaulieMB's Mellow Yellow Progress Thread

    Loving the yellow - such a 'happy' colour, and very effective too. I nearly bought a yellow TT, when I was hunting down my last car, but due to a slight bubble in the dash (where the sun had heated an area, somehow) I refused it, and so ended up with red.....and like Fran, just can't put down...

    ^ that's about the only thing I DO know about this - you'll need something like Meg's Plast-X for the plastic....scratch X will create more

    I'd be interested in the solution to this too, as mine is a complete eye-sore with dust inside and scratches outside

    Misano Red Sportback black wheels?

    I nearly done this with the Speedlines mate - a real good plan, imo as I like the simplicity of your wheels....real easy to clean :thumbsup: Out of interest though, I wonder what they'd look like in gunmetal with a lighter/darker inner area. Just a shot in the dark - could look bloomin'...
