    B5 OR B7

    If you're planning on making anything into a weekend weapon, I'd go with the turbocharged B5s. So much harder to extract any more power out of an N/A engine.

    Looking for a S4 facelift B5

    Avant or saloon? They're getting pretty rare these days, and to find one on 60K you'll be waiting for months if not years. If it's the right one though, mileage isn't an issue. I bought mine on 137K, but with a massive amount of service history, proving it's been looked after well for the last...

    Which wheels do you prefer for my RS3

    Personally I love BBS CH's, but I think there's more to choose from out there than just those two.

    Bought this body kit.....

    Nothing a bit of fire can't fix.

    Saw you posted this on Cliosport as well! Comment on Flickr was obviously some one with nothing better to do.

    Mike's A4 B5 Avant 2.8 Quattro Sport Avant with RS4 bits

    Find some standard bumpers and remove the RS badge, and you're onto a winner. No point trying to pretend it's something it's not.

    ok who did this?

    The wrap can be taken off, I'd be more concerned with it being Cat D and pink. Theres better examples out there, without the history.

    My Remade Audi A4 B7 RS Edition :)

    Honestly, I prefer the before pictures.

    2008 S3 whining noise after driving through puddle

    Stop driving it, take it to a garage. Could literally be anything. No one on the internet will be able to give you a definitive answer.

    Scratched Front & Rear Windows - From Claying?

    I'm sorry, but that's poor advice. Using a "machining buffer" without claying is a guaranteed way to leave you're lovely shiny car covered in holograms. Claying is part of the preparation for paint correction. If you're machine polishing cars without claying you're going to cause more damage...

    some opinions for a newcomer please

    If a salesman turned round to me and did what he's done to you, quite frankly he can f*ck right off. Sorry, but if you don't want my business and can't provide me with what I'm after I'll go elsewhere. They should be bending over backwards to help you.

    Standing water and FMIC

    This is along the lines of: "poured water and sand into my intake to port the cylinder head, now the engine won't start" Made my evening, thank you!

    1.8T Engine wont run after crash

    Just a guess, but I'd say it's f*cked. Why not make an insurance claim and get it fixed up that way, that's what insurance is there for after all?

    Great, some guy reversed out of his drive infront of me

    Should be a fairly straight forward result. Anyone reversing out of a side road onto a main road is immediately at fault. As has been said, you cant reverse onto a main road. Your insurance company should be aware of this and not settle for anything less than 100% fault from the other party.

    My Solar Orange S3

    I'd have chosen a different colour in all honesty, and this is coming from a guy who owns an orange car.

    Winter tyres NOW on

    Nice little video, if slightly biased towards the winter tyres. Each example shows the BMW on summer tyres being driven poorly in the conditions. Hill start, it's merrily spinning away when we all know you pick a high gear and low revs, other two tests, it's being driven marginally more...

    Winter tyres NOW on

    While I'm sure winter tyres are wonderful and all, we don't get the hard winters that they have in Scandinavia or on the continent that justify shelling out £4-500 for the two weeks of ice and snow that we get a year. I've always run my Clio on yokohama paradas come rain, shine or 2 foot of...

    Ds3000 pads. Where from?

    The 2500s are fast road pads. DS3000s are race pads. They'll squeal and make ridiculous amounts of brake dust, which bakes onto your wheels. The paintwork also suffers badly with the amount of dust they make. Fantastic pads for stopping on track, but I wouldn't advise fitting them if you care...

    Ds3000 pads. Where from?

    Demon Tweeks. Cheapest place I could find DS3000s for my Clio. I'm assuming you've used them before and are aware they destroy wheels?
