    Lane assist

    First of all I have sympathy for what happened to you....and being an ex biker myself I understand how easy this type of thing can happen. You as a trained IAM driver should be fully aware that it is not always necessary to indicate. Proper observation and judgement deems when it is necessary...

    Lane assist

    I completely agree with you on the downsides of lane assist systems, and the owner should be able to disable it if they want to. My Mercedes is exactly the same in that it is always on by default and can only be disabled per individual ignition cycle. The changing lanes to overtake part isnt an...

    Headlight difference help please

    Yep, got it 6 months ago to the very day. :) You have not seen my thread then I take it? https://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/mercedes-cla-250.418506/

    Headlight difference help please

    It's just been updated with a festive falling snow theme. :D Definitely not a Millenial although I wouldnt mind recapturing some of my youth, but unfortunately those days are in my rear view mirror now... :( Ive just looked it up and apparently I belong to "Generation X" :yahoo:

    Headlight difference help please

    How long is a piece of string. :D Seriously though I love it and have no plans at all to get rid of it. Currently covered 1916 miles in 6 months. I just checked my app to get that mileage. :)

    Headlight difference help please

    I love watching the sequential dance....never fails to amuse me. :rock: I am easily amused though. :relaxed:

    Headlight difference help please

    Yep this seems to be exactly how the Mercedes system works. Only slight difference which didnt seem to be obvious from that video is that I can see my LED's individually turning off as oncoming vehicles get closer. Also he said there are "15 bulbs" which I assume he means 15 LEDs per headlight...

    Anyone ordered a new S3 yet?

    Ok 24 minutes is far too long to hold my attention for a youtube video... but yes the Sportback is probably better then the M135i. Which in turn begs the question, how much more is the S3 Saloon better...because we all the know the Saloon model is always superior. :innocent: By the way I've...

    All new S3

    I wish you would stop editing your posts to add things after I have already read them. :D Have you only just noticed that under my username? Its been there ever since I first joined back in June 2018. ;) To answer your question...Audi drivers(along with BMW) have a popular stereotype.

    All new S3

    I usually buy mine from Clinton. My favourite type is Boofle. Look there he is in my avatar. :D

    Collected my new Audi S3 2021 Saloon today!

    Not wanting to steer the conversation away from the OPs lovely new S3, but for me with a choice of those 2 it would be a very easy decision, CLA 35 all the way - identical performance wrapped up in a much more stylish body. :sunglasses: The £475 annual VED for both is a downside though. :(

    All new S3

    I continue to do it.....just cant seem to help myself. :D I shudder to think how much I have lost in depreciation on my last 6 cars, but adding up the full retail prices it comes to over £180k. :openmouth: This one might be my last for a while though... :innocent:

    Your subsequent edit has been noticed. Also I have not bitten at your attempt to antagonize, so have done my own editing. :D

    Anyone ordered a new S3 yet?

    I dont want to sound rude but in what way are you telling me something I don't already know? I fully understand the difference between PS and BHP and its very common confusion by motoring journalists, which is a bug bear of mine. You are preaching to the wrong person my friend. ;)

    Anyone ordered a new S3 yet?

    Carwow are also quoting the 2021 Tiguan R as having 316bhp, although true to form they have confused PS with BHP and say it has 320hp. :D

    Anyone ordered a new S3 yet?

    I honestly dont see what is wrong with the grille. :innocent: I am not keen on the new 1 series grille though. Basic on the road price of M4 Competition is £76,055....but as you say options can push it up to crazy money!:anguished: I dont need to worry about it though cause I could never afford...

    Looks fine to me. There will be no shortage of potential buyers. :D

    Anyone ordered a new S3 yet?

    Cant say I'ver ever got that impression from you. :D Speaking of cars that you might like though.....I am finding myself very taken by the new 2021 BMW M4 and would not hestitate to pick it over its Audi and Merc rivals. :sunglasses: Even though I am a serial car changer I just couldnt stretch...

    Headlight difference help please

    Im assuming these "matrix" type lights operate in the same way regardless of manufacturer, and if thats the case then I can definitely recommend them. :sunglasses: They are standard on my car and in the 3 months since I bought it I've not tired of watching them work every time I am out in the...

    New S3 review (15/09/20)

    Must admit that did make me smile. :D
