Will need to get my car reapplied with Gtechniq after sorting the paintwork too so another trip to the detailers.

Yes I might be better off, you're definitely right - even though its a metallic white I imagine its lot easier to match/blend then some of the darker colours in audi's colour pallet which often have all sorts of exotic colours of flake in them.
By the way, love the colour combo of your S3!

Drive looks longer from that angle mate ;o)

Keep that white stuff up their ! - cold enough to have some here to be honest. Not touched mine all weekend either so I gets a strike against me name. Going to get the oil changed this week not waiting for 18k.

£200 notes eek does that include the flights to Saudi Arabia to collect it fresh ???

Not heard it coming up early before have you topped it up at all ? Prob put almost a litre in mine at til now but don't like the idea of it going another 6 months on original oil.

I managed to give it a pre-wash with citrus, then a snow foam, then a hand wash, then a dry AND then a quick once over with Simoniz QD:

Was using the Audi cupholder phone / advanced key cradle with my iPhone 5s but having upgraded to a 6s it's now too small. Found this 3D printed mount that clips directly in to the cupholder :)

* For the phone to stay in place you have to insert / use a Lighting cable so needed to balance the mount on something as it would not sit flat on the table. The mount has a notch in the back so you can run the cable up the side and in to a USB Cig lighter.

Wasn't necessarily today, but over the weekend installed my USP Catted downpipe. Car is ridiculously fast now and loving the sound my AWE Tuning Touring exhaust makes now! Been at work with headphones on listening to it! Can't wait to drive the car this weekend again! #hurryupweekend

I still need to do 0-60 times, but watching the video and timing it, its about 4.4-4.6, not too shabby as the whole system shave off about a second from stock 5.4.

I had to clean my wipers.

Was fine the day before, but overnight it dropped to -2 Celsius and this morning it was +2 Celsius. Must've been because of the cold because they started juddering on the screen (at a certain point during the up-wipe, then at a different point on the down-wipe) - despite the heavy-ish rain I was driving in...which I thought would've reduced friction on the screen.

Will see after work if they're the same.

In summary - I didn't do anything exciting to my 8V.
 
I blew the tyres up, have you checked yours recently? Oh and I also checked the oil level too.............

That a genuine badge buddy or a ebay special as fancy adding a quattro badge myself...but unsure if I want the script in black or red...as going on my sepang????thoughts???
 
Ebay, I went red as I thought the black may blend in too much on a black car! and red stands out a bit more!

This is the place I got mine RED or in BLACK

 
Aah right...I fancy this one I think

@pburv BHP you mean? I was thinking I'm around 270-290 maybe? Some dyno runs I've seen with almost identical setup (minus the intake), they basically are at 297.
