Hi all, I’m about to return to Audi ownership with the purchase of an R8 V10 (manual). The car has done 43k miles with no paperwork of any clutch changes. Is it possible for a dealer to investigate clutch wear so that I can tell how much life is left ? I know the clutch replacement is an...

Never had an R8, a friend just bought one and is raving about it. So now I’ve convinced myself I need one. (?) Please let me know what you’ve got. Am flexible on Coupe/Spyder Preference for black interior and carbon (or colour coded) side blades Prefer to avoid R-tronics. Ideally...

Thanks ! Have read through a number of your posts. Super helpful, and makes the forum a very valuable source of info. Thank you!

Q on the sat nav. Is it a deal breaker if it is the version with two SD card slots ?

Oh and I will post a message on the other site - thanks for the tip.

Thank you so much for the detailed reply, much appreciated and will look into all those items. It does have pan roof and bose, will check the HDD nav. The example I’m looking at has done 20.3k miles, so not huge but not low. Glad you think red is a decent colour. I like it but was...

Hi all! Thinking of buying an RSQ3, which a friend of mine is selling (his wife’s car and they’ve just replaced it). It is the facelift model, in red, with black leather. Have read on this forum that owners generally seem to be very happy with them. Just wondering if there is anything in...

Sorry - my bad! Will re-post in the classifieds section.

Hi All, after just a few months of ownership, I'm selling my 8L. Long story but I finally found an M3 CSL and can't justify too many toys in the garage. Lovely car and genuine reason for sale. I have a trade offer from audi, and will trade within a week unless a private sale is agreed...

Sorry have been travelling for work and only back last night. Just paid.

Hmmm... Very tempted. Have asked the stealer for a quote when mine goes in to have the HID levelling checked next wk

I'm in too... The slippery slope continues.... 1. Lemon S3 - S3 99 - S3 logo - F&R 2. Luke2702 - S3 02 - S3 logo - F 3. Wibble111 - S3 01 - S3 logo - F 4. Funky_Junky - S3 03 - S3 logo - F 5. S3_stig - S3 01 - S3 logo - F&R 6. scoobyra - S3 01 - S3 logo - F&R 7. Sportquattro - S3 99 - S3 Logo...

Yup, I looked into this a lot before buying and you need a 5x100 stud configuration and offset around 32-36 as mentioned above. Apparently not too many choices in terms of genuine (non-replica wheels) but the 18" alloys from a tt quattro sport (240hp) may also fit ?

Agree. I had to pay more but that was for a 2003 with around 31k mls, cambelt done, body immaculate except a couple of scratches, etc. Agree with the comment above that 6.5 seems about right, definitely no more than 7.
