Taken the Plunge !

[ton246]

Hi People,
Just picked up our new S3 this morning after trading in our A4 Avant S-Line,well pleased with it, looks superb ( in my humble opinion) worth the money ? probably not but eh its only money, the whole Audi brand just makes you feel that little bit extra special dont you think ? Can't wait to run it in the 600mls then feel what its REALLY like.:thumbsup:

Hope you like

Very nice, shame it's not in the best colour though!

I've got a great idea to run the engine in nicely!....

Looks stunning mate. First one I've seen in phantom black with black grill styling. I stayed with the original chrome cos I wasnt 100% sure with the black grill on a black car. I anticipated it would be too black - but it looks good.
If I had it in Ibis white, I would definately have the black grill with black mirrors!

Nice car mate..

 

[MacrosTheBlack]

Very nice! Like the black optics grill. Just got my S3 in Phantom black too. Lovely colour....

Where's your roof aerial fin though? Can't see it in the pics.... been removed?

 

[PaulAr]

Cool.
very `moody` front end with the black grill too.

You only get the fin with satnav and/or the phone prep.

 

[MacrosTheBlack]

Ahhhh, didn't know that. Thanks John!

You get the fin with phone prep?

 

[JohnS3]

You get the fin with phone prep?

Yep, sure do!

 

[L60N]

I was curious as to the purpose?? Does the car improve mobile reception if u have the GSM? I thought it was merely connectivity.

 

[bacardi]

no way it can approve the signal unless its physically wired into the phone, the "RF coupling" ones in some cradles make a sliiiiiight difference but negligible
You're better off hanging a wet piece of string out of the window

Great looking car!. enjoy it!

Which brings me back to "what does the fin have to do with GSM prep?"

[JohnS3]

Thanks Lee. You just saved me typing the answer!

 

[L60N]

Ahhhh!

So it does improve reception..

So you mean i have to fork out for a blinking phone adaptor now? because mine does live in my pocket

 

[JohnS3]

I'd say so, I find there's less dropped calls when you drive through a weak spot in the network. The adaptors come up on eBay all the time, that is if you can get one for your phone.

same here, BT is excellent, I use the armrest phone prep for storing chewing gum!, no need for the cradle IMO.

LoL!! I use the useless coin drawer for chewing gum, its perfect for this size stuff, very snug:

 

[phantom]

I must be lucky, but I don't have the cradle and have never had a dropped call.

Snap!
