I was told the rear brakes are fine. I guess they work like a Clio Cups. As in they do sod all. Dampers are leaking. TBH they don't ride very well, the Mag Dampers I had on the F type were miles better.

Car serviced. Inspection, Oil Change and spark plugs for £295 a full £280 less than Audi wanted initially. But I need a tyre on the front due to sidewall damage, luckily I have a 235/35/19 P Zero kicking around so I'll get that on and its good to go. And...... It need four new magnetic...

They just called them to ask if they were using genuine parts. Which they were, as it says on both the quote I sent and all the website literature.

That's the issue with those plans. 5 years or 50k miles. In both cases you only get 2 services. Which is a bit of a kick in the balls when an oil change and an inspection cost you £535 each. Audi have caved in and mated my specialists quote. Oil change and inspection for £165. Cheeky £225...

Because the £100 in fuel costs actual money too. No wonder the bank will not give you a mortgage ;)

They want to do it now, just for a million quid.

I'm not going to, I want Audi to do it but for specialist prices, as I'm not paying £390 for an oil change!

Just got a price of £165 for the service and inspection from a local specialist. Audi are investigating it as proper parts may not be used... The only actual part used in the service is an oil filter lol

No one answered the service desk at two dealers after calling 4 times. The one dealer I did get through to couldn't give me a price! JCT600 have just emailed me saying it'll be £371 for an oil change and to look at it! f**k that.

Up to 17500 miles and no one wants to service it. JCT600 Audi are useless.

Yes, I thought it'd be like the Gallardo. It wasn't. It was dull in fact.

The standard previous gen R8 V10 (not the plus model) was one of the most disappointing sounding cars I've driven. The plus model was a lot better and the current gen sound good but only at the top end when you get the V10 wail.

Call Helix direct, will beat any garages quote.

Hit a piece of wood on the M-way. Needs the front and back bumpers painting now. Also due its first service and inspection. Joy. Still fast as f**k like though.

I think the volume of the OEM and Airtec are nearly the same though.

Yeah having the 13c on the back of it won't help at all.

They sound miles better than the old muted V8/V10 R8's. The new V10 sounds ok but is still far too quiet!

It sounds awesome! Sounded way better than the R8 I had a play with today.

Probably mate. Hi.

I want the new bundle. 30 days is ages though!

By the time I spec one up its bear RRS money, with out the good final value, so would actually be more a month!

That is true. I'm reasonably high up in the company I work for and if I turned up in something knackered it wouldn't look good. Although I'm odd and don't look at BMW and Audi etc as high end brands now, they are just the norm here.

To be fair, only 20% of my 30k a year is on the M-way. I'm all country side based so I do get to use the RS3 properly. But I think in the same situation I'd hang my self in a 3.20 etc, whereas a RRS has that something special about it. I've done around 1000 miles in the one above and I loved...

But its Jew gold and only a HSE. I want Autobiography or nuffin.

TT RS? Or that Jew gold RRS?

I would LOVE one. The range isn't enough and the charging stations near me are too few, otherwise I'd be all over it.

But.... I've been in that situation. When I had the Alfa as a company car these were what I ran beside it: MK Indy R1 Kit car Boxster S TVR Tamora None of those got used at all, and it was just another set of costs for no reason. I probably did around 4000 miles combined in all of them.

Driving the RRS takes the stress of driving totally away, which is nice. Its quite quick for what it is too. Depends on what I can make on the RS3. I've offered it to a few garages in cornershop land! I'd always planned on selling it at 24 months old, not 12. But the house move has changed...

I spend a lot of time in it though. Sack sitting in a 320d for 10 hours a week.

Tru that. RR in ideal Spec = £98k RRS in ideal spec - £74k Evoque in ideal spec = £53k Big ole difference.
