What a waste of a awesome car, the doors on the top photo are 2 different tones can't be a Audi colour surely?

Yes, i did notice that, but not sure if it's a wrap or exclusive.

I've found out that the Matrix are controlled by speed as well, guess that might be the same for on matrix? Take a corner at 30 no main beam, closer to 40 and main beam comes on.

I didn't realise that sweeping indicators have made their way onto other brands now.

Already seen a new Golf with them and now Ford ! Saw a Mondeo yesterday with sweeping indicators.

The 'uniqueness' doesn't last long does it.

Wonder what will be the next 'in thing' Audi will release will be.

Probably the external lighting features from the eTron concept??

I remember when I got my A5, a new '60 plate, there weren't many other brands with the LED daytime running lights (individual diodes rather than a continuous line), then............ Kia tried to copy Audi.

Audi are incredibly good at lighting aren't they.

Yeah it was the A5 that had the those DRL's first wasn't so .... immensely cool when they first came out.

Now they are common place on all brands but the design & shape is now what makes them unique.

I've seen them on the back of a bus and on various trucks too.

Again l actually prefer the rear indicators on my PFL to be honest they're larger and brighter than the FL but again the rear taillights are awesome on the facelift

lol my Gtechniq detail was £650, well worth it though when it comes to washing the car, 3 months on the water just runs off it when rinsing.
