    Did your car come with a tracker from the dealer?

    They nicked my a45 a few years back with a rewire tracker installed… they ripped out the covers for all the ‘usual’ places to find a tracker but had no luck as I installed it myself in the depths of the cabin. Rewire tracker located the car within half hour but took three days to get out if the...

    Did your car come with a tracker from the dealer?

    Wait for the new Mercedes Benz A45 AMG or just order the RS3 now?

    I was also attracted to the rs3 saloon rather than sportback.. Glad im not alone in that preference with no disrespect to sportback owners.. Had a look at the A35 today.. not sure if it was poorly specced but I must say, wasnt impressed with the chrome door handles or the overuse of piano black...

    Wait for the new Mercedes Benz A45 AMG or just order the RS3 now?

    Kerbed Alloy

    I know the feeling mate, but if its any consolation... you got away lightly. Think im right in saying, you only need to have the top layer cut, so logo wont be effected right.. in contrast to having the inner black paint redone, in which case you would require new logo.. Sent from my iPhone...

    Facelift Anybody regret modifying their car in any way?

    My last merc was mapped and regularly serviced at MB dealership, they didnt batter an eyelid.. In contrast, ive heard audi will virtually shutdown on you on locating a map, this may/not be true. One expects ones car to be reliable, one expects mappers to offer reliable maps.. but when/if it...
