Thats me got tired of the A3 breaking down and spending money on it. The latest problem is 5th gear has gone missing and the clutch is slipping. My brothers had a look at it and thinks it could have been in a fairly big accident in the past as the inner wings seem damaged. So i've turned to the dark side and managed to get a staight swap at a ford dealer on a 06 plate Fiesta ST with only 5000 miles on the clock. Its not quite the quality of the Audi but hopefully it wont break and if it does it wont cost both arms and legs to sort. It looks like i might have the tuning bug again though as im already looking at engine parts  Mike |

I added a huge gouge down to metal in the drivers side rear wing of the Chavalier a few days ago by reversing into a brick flower planter while a little hung over. I think it adds road prescence... and has knocked some of the mud off too so a winner all round. |
