    Just bought an A3, advice welcome.

    Advice on storing my A6 for 9 months

    Point taken. I'll set the traps and check them every day. Although, I've never seen a rat around here due to the large number of cats owned by neighbours but living free.

    Advice on storing my A6 for 9 months

    Just bought an A3, advice welcome.

    Thanks! Got confused with another A3 I looked at, the timing belt cover is there. I must've seen a dozen A3 for sale last week, a very stressful experience, especially when cars are described as "immaculate conditions" and then you're presented a scrap. I looked at a few 2011/2013 models and I...
