    Recommended body shop in South Manchester/Cheshire?

    Hi folks Our 2006 A4 B6 had developed a nasty habit of losing large patches of its lacquer from both front and rear bumpers. It's flaking off where water is getting under the lacquer throughout stonechips or scratches. I think the best solution is to find a professional body shop to flat back...

    A4 roof bars

    Evening all I'm usually lurking around on the S3 8P forum, but as we've had a new addition to the family in the shape of our new (well 06) a4 B7 Avant 2.0TFSI S Line so I'm lurking here too! We got the car on Sunday from Chrome motors in Macclesfield, but unfortunately we didn't get the key to...

    DA 1st attempt...is it possible to create orange peel?

The paint swirls have been greatly reduced, but I'm having trouble getting rid of and deeper scratches in the laquer. But the scariest thing is that I can now see a small...

    Snow foam lance for a Stihl pressure washer

    Evening folks I want to but a snow foam lance which is compatable with my pressure washer (which is a Stihl RE118) but I've no idea which attachment I need to buy. The Juicy Detailing website has a number of nozzle types in the drop down menu but none are Stihl specific. I've attached a...

    Is OEM Sat Nav the way to go or not?

    Hi all I have checked the buyers guide thread to see if this has been covered before, but the question seems a bit 'newbie' and based on opinion. However, I'd be grateful to see what people think about the following: I'm currently looking to buy my first S3. I’m looking for a 2006 or 2007...
