    You wanted pics?

    I've been the proud custodian of an 8L S3 (MY2003) and I love it, but it might be time to upgrade. This car has brought me back out of the woodwork. Thanks so much for the pics Vertigo — some of the best I've seen on the web. -- james

    I just got a weird email from the site...

    telling me that my username change had been processed as requested. Except, I haven't been on for a while :) admins, I would have just discounted it except it looks like it's for real - they got the email address and everything right. I don't want to cause a panic etc, but there haven't...

    Photoshop of my car, what do ya guys think :D

    I'm with the majority, I think the whole point of an audi is the understated look and sticking a carbon fiber bonnet on it doesn't do it any favours. I can think of a lot of japanese cars it's done to, but very few euros. you should stick with the bumper and spend the 400 quid for the bonnet on...

    Audi are about to walk down BMW's design path...

    ... discuss. Note that I'm not trying to troll here, it's just I've seen the pics of the new A8 V12 and also spy pics for the new cars, and I have to say I think they're about to ruin the classic understated lines that Audi has become synonymous with. Examples: - the A4 update: - and again...

    Anyone put a Remus exhaust on their S3?

    I was just wondering about this today. Remus are a pretty well respected brand - I was surprised that I don't remember having seen anyone mention it. Their website lists the S3 as a car that one of their exhausts fits; they don't have the sound or many of the details, but they do have some demo...
