    STOLEN A3 S/Line Black Edition WHITE from LEEDS CAR PARK

    I never mentioned (or refered to) "council estates" in my post, so come down off your high horse! I've lived and worked in Leeds all of my life, and its a hole. If property isn't screwed down, it WILL be nicked. And I don't care What area of Leeds we're talking about. If I could afford to move...

    STOLEN A3 S/Line Black Edition WHITE from LEEDS CAR PARK

    Sorry to hear the scummers have had your car, Sarah. :( I live in Leeds and I can tell you, it's full of bone idle wasters who will do ANYTHING other than work to make a living. It's just SO **** when you can't even leave your car in broad daylight without these oxygen robbing little cretinous...

    Fuel cap - what do you do with yours?

    Haha. This thread is mint! The flap thing has been doing my head in. I couldn't believe that the cap is supposed to be clipped to the paintwork of the door. I've just had a play, and discovered that mine does the same as yours. It will fit on the hinge, but only one slot and at an angle. It...

    Black headlining in a cabrio

    I went for the silver (pale grey) headlining. Black makes for a very gloomy interior in the cabrio.

    Driving me mad this roof

    Maybe the lock latches have siezed? Seriously, whats the point of it doing your head in by not knowing? I'd be having it into a specialist or dealer pronto. Surely if you can afford a 3 year old cab, you can afford to get it looked at ? ? ?

    Driving me mad this roof

    Well, I've NEVER paid for what I'd call basic or obvious fault diagnosis from any other marque. Mind you, this is my first ever Audi....:)

    Driving me mad this roof

    I'd take it to the dealers to find out what's up with it. They'll probably know in 5 minutes. Fault diagnosis will almost certainly be free ? (I've certainly never paid for it in my life) Then, once you know whats wrong with it, its up to you who you use and where you go to fix it ? I take it...

    Driving me mad this roof

    I guess its possible some water could have got into the electrics for the roof maybe ? Did the valeter use a high pressure hose? Has the roof done this previously ? I would say whatever the reason, a trip to the stealers is in order... :(

    A3 cab- rear leg room ? Any owners.

    Nice one! You don't mess about, do you? Haha. Roof mechanism is superb. So fast, and can be done on the move. Extra "cool points" Haha.

    A3 cab- rear leg room ? Any owners.

    Hi there. I've had mine for 6 months now, and I'd say yes....maybe.... I'll elaborate. I'm 6' 5" and obviously need the drivers seat fully back on the runners. This leaves *just about* room for either of my kids (5 & 7) to go behind my seat. You wouldn't fit an adult in comfortably with the...

    Black Edition

    Lucky, lucky you! I've had to deal with the most cretinous, lazy, unhelpful imbeceils I've ever had the misfortune to come across. I will never walk through the dealers door again once I've collected the car. In 23 years of car buying I have NEVER received such disgusting levels of (dis)service. :(

    Black Edition

    I've used it on many cars I've owned that were either fast (and I had a chance of stuffing it) or nice (and had a good chance of scroats nicking it) To be honest I always use the cheapest (who has decent underwriters.) Thankfully, I've never had to use their services and so can't comment on...
