Looks like Saloons aren't affected WAUZZZ8V8

@Ormesome How much is "on offer"? Tempted to get some for the rear doors (fronts were factory fit).

Managed 46MPG from Manchester to Edinburgh, at least according to the OBC, I imagine that calculated using actual fuel put back into the tank, the figure would drop at least a few %. Lifetime average for the last 12 months is 31.0 (again, according to the OBC).

For an MOT and fluid change if I didn't have the car back on the day it went in, I'd be going nuts. Three days in I'd have lost my **** and someone would be getting the sack at that dealership. I've got previous in getting people removed from my local dealership too, so they wouldn't be...

I don't believe it makes much of a difference in all honesty. Both key types transmit/receive on similar frequencies, the only major difference being that no handshake between car/key will happen with advanced key until you are in range of the sensors in the vehicle (unless you press a button...

Common misconception. All of the news articles that have done the rounds in recent years always hark on about "keyless", however what they refer to (as evidenced by the fact that they always list cars starting from the turn of the century) is keyless entry (and by keyless, they mean a remote...

It’s not an opinion, it’s a fact. The car isn’t his to mod.

Exhaust on overrun and gear changes.

HBA for me, as retrofitting folding mirrors is easier.

Well my AeroTwins are almost (but not quite) as useless as the OEM wiper blades. So I've now got two sets of wipers that have done less than 3,000 miles (and not all of that in the rain). The Bosch ones will have less than 1,000 miles on them! It's become that annoying now, I resort to taking...

This is the biggest problem IMO. Manufacturers seem insistent that customers all want gash black or really dark wheels. Bleurgh! :puke2:

CCTV and GAP insurance. Done.

If it came with the car, it goes with the car IMO. That said, I wish I’d kept the puncture kit/compressor from my A4. I did keep the bits I bought separately, such as the baggage handles for the boot (same part between A4 and S3 Saloon, so saved me some money), and I kept the rubber floor mats.
