Vig...is that the carpark we had to leave sharpish a while back when Alec had his MK2 1.8T?

Vigoro · 20 Feb 2011 at 23:01

Yes it is. No angry people there this time though!

InvaderGIR · 20 Feb 2011 at 23:03

Haha, thought I recognised it.

My car looking a little dirty. Need to get the mudflaps painted/replaced sometime this year though, as the paint is flaking off both of them

Is that an after market exhaust or just a replacement tip?

TSW Venoms, awesome!

Exhaust on the MX5 looks aftermarket to me, a lot of them stick out like that for some reason. Not keen on the wheels myself though, but then compared to mine it looks great.

It is an after market exhaust. I was a bit suprised by the size of the end when i got it

I want to try and find some new wheels at some point, but it is just finding something that i want to replace them with first

Though't i'd add my 2p to this thread seen as though i got a new car this weekend.

2002 Audi A6 1.8 Turbo. Really good example inside and out.

Im not normally a fan of aftermarket wheels but I think these BBS replica's suit it down to the ground.

[TW]Fox · 23 Feb 2011 at 16:47

The wheels dont suit it at all

Shimmy · 23 Feb 2011 at 16:51

Wheels don't suit imo, lack of centre caps certainly doesn't help though!

[TW]Fox · 23 Feb 2011 at 16:52

Windows nicely steamed up as well, does it leak?

They do have centre caps but they are plain black (my rubbish photograhpy skills do not help).

I only as purchased the car at the weekend but i am intending to purchase a set of Audi caps.

So why is it so badly steamed up? Usually happens when you've got plenty of damp inside the car?

I had literally just got back from having the car cleaned and it steamed up when I was stationary. I had not got to grips with the climate control system at this point so the whole inside started to steam up.

Just leave the AC on with CC set to 20 degrees, job done

Indeed, neither does the engine really. A6 needs a V6 in it!

Logsi · 23 Feb 2011 at 17:44

Well i thought it was alright. And i don't really like Audi's. But what do i know
