    Well fellas I think the A3 might be going....

    I am fairly set on a GTI and if one of the three stealers I'm waiting to hear back from with a price for my car gets anywhere near what I want for it, the A3 will be packing its bags come Jan.

    Oh yes...who says diesels are slow off the mark!? Last night when joining a motorway I was beside a CTR (model before last). Feck it I thought...I'll give him a go and see if he bites. Lights go green and I get a smooth start with no spinning or wheel hop, I'm gunning it and so is he. Just...

    My A3 with the CHs just fitted...........

    Well fellas...I had them fitted this morning. It's hard to see in the picture it being a black car and a dark enough shot due to cloud but the wheels actually sit nicely as they are. The arches are hard to see properly in the picture. Sorry for the driveway shot but I'm going to work in 25...

    Is this a valid replacement for an A3?

    This is what I got from the stealers today. It has replaced my 04 2.0TDI A3 Sport, Superchipped and fully loaded. I now have 65bhp to pull me around until tomorrow. Oh what fun.
