    Gonna buy some alloys this week. Advice ?

    i think i would go with those, they look the business. I also have a feeling but maybe wrong that u can get 18" RS4 Avus style, or they maybe 17", not sure and i like those, I saw some pics on here of a guy who has a red A4 Avant, not sure if it was an S4, and he went from the Avus style to...

    Firefox vs Internet Explorer

    yes im using it now, so much better. i was advised by a friend to use it, it prevents pop ups aswell, i was also told that it uses less memory than explorer, as each open window of IE counts as a different program but firefox groups it as one so saves memory. Doesn't crash as much as IE does...

    Cheap S3s

    I doubt you will get one that cheap, unless u find a real bargain, or one with damage that hasn't been declared. they started to make S3's on a 99 T plate, i've just picked up a 1.8 T sport just before xmas which isn't quattro and that was £7250. and that was a good price. you may get some 1.8 T...

    BT Broadband

    i got the email through the other day, and says it will start upgrading from the 17th, but it says that i will keep my 30gb download limit, however my price is only dropping to £27, interesting differences there!! either way still very pleasing hope that isn't going over the top Ross

    steamy windows

    Wheel Bearings

    my A3 T sport 99 T started making a very similar noise recently, it did sound like a grating noise or a drone/vibrating sound. i knew the brake pads were worn so assumed it would go away when i got these changed, but it hasn't. I have fitted S3 alloys to the car but cant see this causing the...
