    Appeal parking ticket?

    I got a parking ticket today from our local council (I didn't pay and display, but genuine mistake, I mis-read the sign!). Apparently I drive a silver Aston Martin, rather than an Audi!! However, the reg is correct, is this grounds to appeal do you think?

    Non-Bose B7 A4 (RNS-E) quality?

    Hey folks, I jut swapped my S3 (8P) with RNS-E and Bose, for an A4 (B7) with RNS-E and non-Bose. I connect my iPod through a Dension GW100 and this seems to just be a straight swap between the cars. Dension quote the same part-no in their compatibility lists, but, I'm sure something isn't quite...

    Seatbelt Warning Chime?

    My B7 that I just picked up doesn't warn me when the seatbelt is unplugged, strangely it doesn't warn me when the lights are left on accidentally... Are these two linked (central convenience?) or easily re-activated?

    B7 tdi 3.0 Quattro - handling upgrade?

    Hi there, I just picked up my "new" motor and unsurprisingly it's VERY different from my S3 (8P). Being the SE and Avant model, this car is like a super fast barge, it's heavy and seems to lean a fair bit going into corners. It's done 160k, so I don't know what that means for suspension...

    Best "s4" style mirrors?

    What are people's opinions on the best "most oem" s4 style, chrome (brushed finish) mirrors. Any pics of them on dolphin grey, with chrome window trim? Wondering what the combination would look like. Cheers D

    VT Advice...would they notice if I kept my S3 rims?

    I'm going to VT my S3 and buy a B7 A4 Avant, if I swapped the rims over before I VT it, I'd have a serious upgrade. Would leave the S3 with 17" Rs4 reps, they *might* not notice, or I could plead ignorance, or I could just say "yeah i got these a while ago". What do you think? Feasible?

    Used B6 A4 Buying Guide? - v6 tdi?

    Hi folks, done a couple of searches and couldn't find anything obvious, so excuse me if it's asked for often! I'm handing my S3 8P back to Audi Finance in a couple of months and am planning on spending A LOT LESS on my car every month (new house and baby on the way have changed priorities!)...
