Well everyone the time has come, I've had my fun and decided to find something a little more sensible.
Today I traded in the trusty S5 with it's phenomenal sound track for a dirty derv.
Picked up my 2014 Golf GTD today and really loving it. Thanks all for your advice and guidance. I'll be...
Ah that is annoying but sadly inevitable. I've actually been to an Audi bodyshop for an inspection and I'm waiting on the results back now. Thought I may as well try to get it done through them.

I may have been able to argue it's down to a design flaw but I think for what I've been quoted, it's not worth my time.
I had a 12 year old S3 before that had bubbling on the roof and they did spray it with no hassle. But the window regulators for my S5 was a massive pain and my local Audi is...
Okay I've been for a quote and he said he's going to remove both sills (I didn't know you could actually do that), strip them back and re stone chip them. £280 all in. Also, said that if I supplied the new protectors that he'd fit them no problem.
Said he'd like to allow two days and I can have...
Ah no photo required now, luckily my arch seems fine, but my sill is just like that, however slightly more away from the sill trim that runs down the car.
I'm just waiting on a delivery today then I'm off to UpToScratch for a quote. Probably wont be too much.
No it hasn't got them, I've noticed it already had two black plastic strips at the back of the arch, but they don't extend around the side like the new ones to deflect stones from the sill.
I've always wanted to do this.
I had them on my old mk4 Golf 1.4 and have always been disappointed that both my S3 and S5 never had them. Will get around to it eventually...
Evening everyone!
I was giving my car a quick jet wash the other day when I noticed a little something hanging down at the rear of the front arch on the sill.
I bent down to feel what it was and to my surprise a little patch of the stone chip protection paint fell off in my hand, revealing a...
Who was it that changed the grade of the oil? An Audi garage/specialist/local?
You could just ring Audi and ask if there has been a change in the recommended oil, if not, go by your car manual...
Is the memory stick plugged in correctly? I only ever get this if it loses connection and suddenly gets it back. I had a slightly faulty memory stick that had previously been bent which I think was the cause.
Well although not a direct comparison, I have a 2009 V8 S5, and in my ownership I've averaged 22.6mpg if you work it out correctly.
I use an app to keep tabs as the dash readout can be incorrect. Normally it is a little optimistic.
I think the real difference will come down to if you will use...
