First Car, First Audi, Old Car, Old Driver

Hi everyone, hope all is well

25 years later finally got round to doing lessons and passing test!
Lovin' it and so so glad I picked Audi!
Had great fun since picking her up in Rotherham last Saturday. 3 trains down there from North East England.
M1 1st motorway experience and was OK!

Finally, wanna say big thank you for keeping the posts from 2004 on the site, I've learnt allot reading all the old threads.

YOU ARE ALL LEGENDS!
Chris

Hey buddy. Congrats on the purchase and hope you like it here even more now that you have an Audi. Share the pics when you have a moment.

So, would I be right in assuming that you just turned 25.

Welcome mate.

Thanks man, having a right good read around. Currently in May 2005, debates about the A3 2.o TDI (my car) v FSI, funny as.
Other fun quotes 'Photo taken on my ****** camera phone' and 'I'm into Funky House and R'n'B, what's the bass like on the Bose' make me chuckle! All this just as Facebook is starting to take hold of the UK over Myspace!

It is an amazing job you’ve done on the leather seats Chris. The bum portion looks like a new seat

I’ve had quite a few Audis over the years and been an Audi guy since 2007 and never looked back. I must admit my first two cars were a 306 and a Civic

Thanks man, plenty more scrubbin to do, 13 years of s*^t to get up n out! What was your first Audi and why you choose?

It was an audi 200 many moons ago it chose me ,e.g. price was rite , it was like driving around in a lounge room wise

It was an A4 B5 1.6 petrol, which I bought from a guy in Cardiff back in 2007. It had 37k on the clock and I kept the car until 2014 with only 100k on the clock. Body-wise it was immaculate but started developing all sorts of engine related problems, ECU gone, starter motor replaced twice, wiper machine, linkage arms and was costing me over £1k to fix it. It all happened within 12 months and I had no other option but to scrap the car

Haha thanks man, I dabble in bass a little but myself but I'm a drummer at heart, my first Audi was a 2011 S3 I'd wanted one for years and it's been my most beloved car. Unfortunately I had to sell her a few years back due to buying a house but I'm in a better financial position now so I'm currently in the final stages or ordering a new A3. I'd have another S3 in a second but I now travel 70 miles a day for work and I simply wouldn't couldn't afford the fuel bill!!!

Bass playing drummers are better than guitar playing bass players! I bashed for 10 years from school but when went to music college, 5 groups, 10 drummers, 4 bass players. Was waiting all the time to bash and was already learning bass so no brainer n switched. Ended up playing professionally for a few years. Had great fun on the road, miss it now!

Looks like you've made some sensible life choices there with selling, buying house then the A3. Good on yer man!
I'm sure you'll have lots of fun in your new baby when ya get her. When's it due?
