New to Audi

[Xsapper]

HI, I have been lurking for a while after purchasing my first Audi in June. Love the car which I would say is a great all-rounder.

Already completed a few minor mods:

Dash Cam with battery for parking mode.

Armrest wireless charge pad and storage tray.

OEM carbon interior trims

Yes I was. Great times

Do you attend a Veteran's Breakfast club?

No breakfast club but I am vice chairman of the (R Mon RE) REA so have plenty of contact with the military. I am also fortunate in that since leaving the forces I have worked for two companies that have military connections, Mabey Bridge who supply compact 200 (new Bailey bridge) and my current job with BAE systems.

@Xsapper & @Pie-eyedpiper thank you for your service, our government should be better at looking after our vets but hope you guys are doing well.

Do you know Tim "Ginge" Harnett?

Sorry for the delay. No I do not remember him. I take it he was at the beach or Hamelin?

 

[Pie-eyedpiper]

Yes, from Waterbeach, he was a Sapper in Support Tp, back in the late '80s. Then went to 59.
Pretty sure he's now OC of R Mons RE though now.
