Hi guys, my name is Ben and I'm from Northampton. This is going to be my build thread for the cleaning up and improving of my B6.
I bought her in April 2013 looking like this from a Polish bloke in Northampton , having previously owned mainly Vauxhalls I was more than impressed with build quality. For some reason the car had come with 3 18"s and a 17 (pictured).
So I bought a fourth RS6 style wheel.
These are commonly called RS6 wheels in the scene but are actually called 5 Arms by Audi. I had all the tyres changed to Proxes T1R. And that was it.
I suppose the build got quite boring at this point as I left everything as it was and just cleaned her properly once a week for nearly two years whilst saving for a house. I also occasionally detailed the paint.
Then, for no good reason I can remember other than seeing another very tastefully modified B6 out and about, I got the modding bug! The car I saw and liked looked really wide on the rear so my first move was to get some spacers.
On further inspection (didn't know much back then) I realised the 18"s I had got with the car weren't genuine but an aftermarket ET33 8J set.
I fitted the spacers on the back
Then I bought my first home and stuck the Audi on the drive.
All you home owners will know how time consuming houses are! So the car got ignored for a while whilst I set about decorating my little girl's room and the kitchen.
I did however clean her whenever I got a minute and kept on top of regular services.
Well that brings it up to the beginning of this year and is enough for one night. More to follow when I get time.
