Few shots of the daily

[leeds_182]

Gave the Audi it's first wash of the year. Still scrubs up ok for a 7 year old bus.

It recently cost me 1300 notes to get a gearbox issue sorted so will be keeping it for a few years yet!

 

[Kane.]

Really like these

 

[_Tom]

Thats a fine bus! Wouldnt mind that myself. PD130?

 

[leeds_182]

Yeah, multitronic.

Do not buy a multitronic one unless it's a B6 or later!

 

[Sir_Dave]

Nice bus. Multitronic's are an epic fail though unfortunately - as u found out

Hindsight is a wonderful thing!

 

[Šįk]

Looks a very nice example! Really nice.

In the near future I want to get the missus to chop the C3 in for something similar to that for us to share for daily use and just keep the 7 for weekends.

 

[leeds_182]

It's a proper mile muncher!

 

[Dean.]

I really like that!

 

[Bluebeard]

I've had three multi tronics and they have had a 100% fail rate. Horrific box.

Nice cars though, and the 1.9 is the better engine apparently.

 

[leeds_182]

The repair I had was an upgrade to the seven plate clutch. Touch wood, it should be alright now.......

Just bought some coilovers for this bad boy. I'm sure the wife's gonna love it when they're fitted with the 19s!

does that mean you can wave goodbye to comfort?

Well, some say the ap coilovers I've gone for arent harsh but personally I think that's a load of rubbish so in answer to your question, yes.

 

[_Tom]

I had AP's on the Bora. Theyre not bad at all. Certainly no different to a standard 1*2.

Bonus. Did they go low enough for you on the bora? I've heard some people say they can't get enough lows from them.

 

[Englebert]

Handsome cars.

Not bought yourself some VAG Inside stickers yet?

They didnt really tbh but then i had it silly low. I had to take the helper springs out. Its different on the Audi's though. I suspect with 19's they'll go more than low enough.

Thanks pal, still want to use it daily so not going for silly low.

I thought you had paid £1300 for the car lol!!

 

[bendee]

i could do with this and a trailer for the rallye looks very nice.

 

[Scrooge]

Proper smart car, the correct engine too.

 

[Darren S]

Is the multi-tronic 'box the same one that can give the A5 an 8-speed option? If so, that failed on one of the cars at work, too.....

D.

 

[Matthew]

Lovely mate, can't beat an Audi for munching the miles.

Awesome interiors IMO

 

[Scott™]

Very nice car

Not sure mate, all I know is that it's shite.

 

[leeds_182]

Straight through the mot today and now on 127k.

Shes a reet workhorse!

 

[Matthew]

Is it a keeper Jim?

 

[_Tom]

My mate has one on 190k which just went through its mot with no advisories. Awesome buses.

 

[leeds_182]

Is it a keeper Jim?

4th mot in this motor.

Officially the longest I've owned a car (by about four years)..

 

[Edd]

What is the ride like on the coilovers Jim, is it harsh? I've been looking at AP for my Golf.

I never got them in the end so its just on standard sport suspension. When I was talking to AP owners before they said the ride is comparable with standard sport so I dont believe it would be too harsh.

Any plans for the beast?
